Notice how the OP hasn't been back to reply to his own thread.. maybe his significant other tied him up..

I thought that my FW addiction was bad.. once I got into the Salt thing I've been going nuts!

Put it this way.. $5000-$6000 a year is far less than other hobbies. You could be out drinking every night with your buddies.. at least you're at home doing water changes.

Also Tim's is currently incorporated in the US but will move back to Canada to take advantage of Canadian tax rates

I find not much beats a Timmie's double-double when it's done right. Starbucks, meh, it's nice, but too much coin and I can't really get into the double-tall venti latte this that and the other terminology. Is a tall a small? I never really know.

As for the reef hobby though .. I'm pretty sure if I hadn't had the tanks the last ten years I'd uh .. probably have way nicer other things. Yeah, I think I'm not going there. No tracking the spending, I'll just weep if I do.

Done right? You mean pressed and steamed in an espresso machine? with enough coffee to turn water a different color? Ok, when they get it right, I'm there!
Let's see. Tall americano. Easy. Large double double done right. Sounds more complicated.

I can't believe you're dissing Timmy's and praising Bucks! They both suck. Timmy's is nothing but MSG, sugar and cream and Bucks is button-pushed burned beyond recognition shite beans. Next time you're on Goldstream Ave. head in to Mirage Coffee (right beside the public library) and get a real cup of coffee (great Americanos if that's what you like).
