I was thinking the same thing! Such a focal point. It has, "I'm the BOSS" all over it.

Haha...so what happened to your post count? Did I miss something?

Thanks for the compliments on the tank by the way. You wouldn't believe how true what you say is. So much so that my builder felt he needed to beef up my fireplace and my entire kitchen in order for the tank to not completely overshadow them from a feature perspective. Cost me lots of extra dough and time in the end because of that.

Hi my name is Mark and my brand new house with a bangin' view had to be upgraded because it didn't look as bangin' as my new monster tank install. Pity me! #FirstWorldProblems

Brad turned on some feature to stop counting useless posts (ie, buy/sell, lounge, etc) in our post counts. As a result this is what I'm left with.

Seriously, from day one you've practically built your entire house AROUND the tank

And there's nothing wrong with that!

I can just imagine that conversation.. "so Mark, we have a problem with the build. No, not the tank, the house. I grossly underestimated its awesomeness. The tank is just so awesome that we will need to balance things out a bit more. I propose me make the fireplace more awesomer. As a result, we will also need to make the kitchen even more more awesomer. Thanks for understanding and sorry for the inconvenience."

Haha....it totally went like that!!! Except he added in there somewhere that he hoped my wallet could take this kind of intense pain. I'm still struggling with it.
