    Who needs it? Driver’s Licenses are SO last century.

    How often do you really pull out a driver’s license? Sure, if you speed an officer may request it. Or when you get carded when purchasing liquor at the supermarket or when getting drinks with friends. For me, that’s just occasional use. So whenever I’m asked for it, I open my wallet and search for it. My debit card and Blockbuster card get far more use - trust me.

    When I fly out to speak to other clubs, that’s ...

  2. Reminder

    If it has been a while since you backed up your computer, do so now before you forget again. Protecting all your data is important as once it is lost, you rarely can recover it. I have an external harddrive that I use only for backups, and hook it up occasionally to do a full back up. Last night, I backed up 82gigs of images, videos, and website content that I've amassed over the past 10 years. Having a fresh back up is best.

    Who'll win the gold?

  4. Snow - my favorite topic; & a power outage to deal with

    I've lived in Fort Worth, Texas since I was 17. We get about one inch of snow one day a year, and the following day it is gone. People in our area usually have no idea how to drive on the stuff because it is so rare, and chaos ensues. I usually enjoy the view from the comfort of my home, sipping on hot cocoa. There's no reason to risk my life or my vehicle with so many clueless drivers out.

  5. Another year older...

    Today, my father sent me an email and I like this part, so I'm sharing it with the world:

    "In case it's slipped your mind, or perhaps you don't remember that day, but 45 years ago today, a precious little bundle of joy arrived on this planet, destined to make reef hobbyists happy in countries all over the world."

    He's a smart man.

    To celebrate my birthday, I decided to organize a DFWMAS Tank Tour so I could not only hang out with a bunch of my friends ...
