We may be older but I like to say "We are aged to perfection" and we do know what's going on in the world especially when we have raised teenagers who loved Guns and Roses..........I actually love that song myself but I haven't got the foggiest idea of what it has to do w/ frogs other than they live in the jungle :smile:

I never had a deicer either sissy. I was going to get one once but decided it wasn't necessary cuz when I put the airstone and the bubblers in the pond they kept the holes in the ice open nicely. Our weather doesn't stay that cold long either :confused:
