Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

The Welcome Room & New Member Intros How about a place for new members to come on in, make an introduction, and meet the regulars? Talk about yourself or anything else that comes to mind, just to break the ice. Or just pull up a chair and make yourself at home for a spell. |

Yeah Wes, that's just not right you coming in here and making me cry like that.
Beautiful words Brother. I know Chuck is shedding a tear over that right now, while lifting his drink in a toast to "The Fauna That Was" and your presence here, even if only long enough to make that one post.
The Fauna That Was. That brings a smile to my face thinking back to the duet that brought fear to the bad guys in the industry. Good ol days for sure.
Nice to see ya again Bro, even if it is under such sad circumstances.

He was the last of the Paladins from Fauna That Was, a helluva place that was not kind to the scumbags and dumbasses of the reptile world.
A quick wit and a nose for crap were natural gifts that some of us will not forget. I didn't know the guy in person but he is one of the few I considered a friend. Those of you from Fauna That Was know how seldom I use that word and how important it is to me.
Maggie, I'm sorry for your loss, truly. You can find me on a couple of sites, bp.net in particular and there are some here who can put you in touch if there is ANYTHING I can do for you or the girls. I know Chuck would have done the same were I married and our situations reversed. Don't hesitate to contact me for whatever, even if it's just for nothing at all.
I'll miss that guy, have missed him, but I'm pretty sure that he'll be clinking ice in a nice drink in a fantastic pool telling me how proud he is of you and the girls when we finally team up again, wherever that may be. I like the image of him, his plastic innertube, light blue of course though I don't know why, in a clean crystalline pool of liquid comfort, a breeze blowing the palms making the faintest of ripple on the water while we laugh and drink and remember fondly the good times we had. Don't be in any rush to join us, but you know there'll be smiles all around when you do.

I am absolutely hysterical crying right now - Rich, thank you, thank you.
I know Charles is smiling right now knowing that Wes was able to come back to make a post for him - this means the most to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - much love to you. Maggie

I always pictured him as Lance, the slapchop/shamwow guy..... lol.
This place just isn't the same without him. Especially the forums toward the bottom. He danced the line between funny and offensive like few I have met.
