    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Bad Guy Beware of Jerry Kruse

Tony, fair enough. We all have our opinions of people and if Jerry has always, or for the most part, treated you well and you have had good experiences with him then I say good on ya. I really mean that, not trying to be funny. And before poeple jump on me for this comparrison, I am just trying to make a point, I am not saying Jerry is THIS bad-----You ever watch the news and see the neighbor that talks so highly of the guy who just got caught doing some terrible crime? Well, even people that do absolutley horrible things, WAY above anything Jerry has ever done, have people that have had nothing but good experiences with them. Just making a point, an extreme example I know, but a point. I was trying to stay away from this thread and be done with it as I had said my peace. Until MJAY. Anyway, once again I am going to try and stay off this thread as I have nothing further to add at this point.

Hey jer, any pics of the babies? It's been awfully quiet out your way. Surely you have some great news about how well they're doing since they've come back to you.
 
Well, mr. kruse, it's been quite a while since you last graced us. I'd sure like to know how those snakes are doing. You were quite adamant that you could bring them around. How about some pictures?

Correct me if I am wrong, but no transaction was made between you an Mr. Kruse??? If this isn't a cry for attention I don't know what is. How long since the last post here from anyone directly involved ? Surely if anyone truly involved had anything to report, they would have. Why the bump Wes? Seems nothing short of instigatory.

Are you that bored, and have nothing else to do besides revive this thread?
 
I think the issue is making sure that he realizes just what he did when he decided to go down this path. I am sure that I will not receive any quarter if I screw up, so why should someone who BLATANTLY decided to steal a customer's money get a "break?" The post may not rise to the top often...but RISE it will.

Same can be said about your post and anyone else not directly involved with the transaction , does his post somehow affect you ?? seems kinda odd trying to stand up for someone who drugged there feet to resolve this.

what could be wrong with being curious on the statues of the animals?? in what way does it negatively affect anything to bring this thread back to light with a decent question?

Some people sure are slow learners...I thought I made it pretty clear that continuing the back and forth crap would result in removal. I may have not have hovered over the thread (that life thing people so often speak of), but that didn't mean I wouldn't be checking when I came back. Unfortunately for some of you, you had enough infractions that your 3 day ban got bumped up a level (to a 30 day ban). Maybe next time, you'll consider heeding a moderator's warning.

I am genuinely, not that I need to explain to most, interested in what has happened to those snakes. I'd like to see what they look like now if they're still alive.
 
I find myself in the unusual position of agreeing with Pollock. Jerry made an awful lot of specific claims about the condition of the animals being caused by husbandry. A status update with pics of the animals would go a long way towards proving whether this was environmental / husbandry based or zonata disease.

I've seen pictures of the animals recently, and they look great.

Then there should be no problem with him posting them here, should there?

Also, did you see the animals that he got back from Stu? If so, how do you know? If mr. kruse told you they were, well, he's lied often enough here that I don't think his word alone, nor yours(no offense but I have no idea what your relationship with him might be), is sufficient evidence that they are indeed doing well. He really needs to put up the proof himself right here.

Agreed on all points.
 
I'm thinking two things.

Number one:

The snakes are all dead.

Number two:

mr. kruse rues the day he ever threatened to 'bring it' to anyone.

Ok, three things.

Number three:

He who checks not his ego at the door,

is likely to find his ass set firmly on the floor

and trust in his word to be found....nevermore.
 
Well, jer, it's been 6 long months and not a peep out of you.

I'd sure like to see the pictures you promised to post up.

Unless of course there are no snakes to take pictures of, that is.
