RE: What's a yard glass

I have never been to an 18th or 21st birthday where one or two have been
given as presents. So I thought they were a world wide thing. This also
makes them cheap and easy to find at garage sales and flea markets.

I do use bottles now but its one part of my fish room that looks totally out
of place and I hate looking at it. Also my daughter gets the money from the
bottles and cans when we take them back to the recycling depot every month
which is usually $20 to $30 so she knows that every 5 cents adds up, and
quickly lets me know if I'm taking to much of her action.

This has given me an idea if I don't like looking at them maybe I should
hide them make a box paint the inside flat white and place a globe at the
top. I am just about to build something for breeding crickets I have been
given the secret method of breeding them from a lizard frog breeder that is
said, to triples the amount of crickets harvested and is twice as easy. When
I get it sorted out I will let the list know. All of my killies love pin
head crickets.
