    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I would really like to know what the "two others" were and why the cornsnake was taken as well.

WAUKESHA - A 44-year-old man will likely be cited by police after county animal handlers and humane society workers removed a poisonous snake, a venomous spider and other dangerous animals from his West Avenue home Friday.

Waukesha Police Capt. Mike Babe said animal handlers removed a Pacific rattlesnake, a 3-foot-long boa constrictor, a 6-foot monitor lizard and two others and a corn snake from the man’s home in the 1800 block of South West Avenue on Friday.

"The tarantula was venomous, too," said James Stadler, a county humane officer. "He had several animals that could cause injury or death."

The spider? I did not know those were not allowed in Wisconsin. If a child can have the flu that can kill an elderly person, would that child then be taken away for being able to kill a person?
