Just curious.
What is that boxy looking thing on the coffee table… is that for storage?

Not exactly sure what you mean so I will add an edited photo with balloon text as to what is what... I THINK that you may be referring to the box like section of the table above the black steel legs. This is actually part of the table. It looks REALLY tall but a lot of that is perspective as I was standing when I took the shot and the table was closer which makes it seem taller in relation to the couch than it actually is. Don't get me wrong as the table is a bit taller than normal for a coffee table by a couple of inches but that is one of the reasons I bought. My mouse and keyboard for my main system sit on the table. With it being a couple of inches taller than normal I can type without having to hunch over. Just threw a straight edge on the table and the surface height is pretty dead nuts even with the top of my knees when I'm sitting on the couch. Since I tend to type with my elbows on my knees this all results in a perfect height for me.

These are brown trout (Salmo trutta) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). They only live in cold water, so I would be surprised if there were any in Brazil. What kinds of fish live near your home?

Trouts are farmed in some places in Brazil, in cooler areas such as Santa Catarina state. Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout) is the main species cultivated.
Near my home, I saw fish such as catfish Pimelodus maculatus, Prochilodus lineatus as well as characids Astyanax sp.. I also reported Poecilia (probably Poecila reticulata in wild form). By far, Oreochromis niloticus is the most common fish in "fish and pay" places.

Got through the first day of school. No injuries, very few tears, lots of good laughs. Calling it a win.

A crime , thats what it is , a crime ! School should not start until after Labor Day . The kids are being robbed of some of their summer . You go right ahead and talk about whatever certain number of days the school board says they have to have - I will hear none of it . In my day school started after Labor Day and we turned out alright . A crime , that’s what it is , a crime starting school before Labor Day .

Just consider yourself lucky that I wasn't one of your students. To put it mildly I was a bit disruptive. I mean what interest could I possibly have had in long division and multiplication tables when I was doing 2 and 3 variable algebraic equations when in the third grade. I was bored silly and they didn't have any real advanced programs back then.
