I just got a call from mike brooks, or rather called him back after he left me a message requesting that I do so.
It seems that he was unclear as to why I had called him a scumbag over on that forum "that he never went on" referring, I suppose, to this very one, the one and only BOI, as I have never posted about him on any other.
I tried to explain that when someone handpicks his animals, overvalues his animals, lies about his animals dying and how they were treated prior to dying, that one, being myself in this particular instance, could logically come to the conculsion that mike is a scumbag.
I still stand by that statement, even more so now that I have spoken to him in person.
He repeatedly stated that what had happened was nobodies business. When I explained to him that a "public" forum was anybody's business he did not seem to pleased to hear it. He still refused to explain why after hand picking his animals and telling SEVERAL stories as to what happened to them he figured it was Alex's fault that they died. He just kept repeating that Alex sold him pythons that died. When I asked him about the meds they SUPPOSEDLY were given, the types and dosages, he just said that it was unimportant what they had been dosed with or how they had been dosed. He was very sure, however, that it was not his fault that the snakes died. Hmmmmmmm perhaps he's a rocket scientist in disguise as well as a scumbag.
When I asked him why he didn't call me 7 months ago when all this was happening he said that he didn't know about this thread. Isn't that interesting as he posted many times on it himself. Again, hmmmmmmm.
Oh well, just another day in paradise.
I would, after our conversation, heartily encourage everyone reading this to STAY AWAY from mike brooks.
