    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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 love 'em. They can sure save some time on some high work. I've seen some hard core guys strap one pair on top of another to work 15' up. It's VERY impressive until they need to go through a doorway. LOL.

I guess I wasn't hardcore, I'd never strap them together. LOL I've used stilts plenty though, even a home made 6 ft pair for vaulted ceilings. They do make the job a lot easier. :yesnod:
 
Stilts scare me....I guess maybe because I'm not that coordinated on my own two feet sometimes. At least I'm smart enough to know that I WOULD hurt myself.

And there ya go Harald, you could make like Art and just post a picture of you from behind like Art's.....I have absolutely nothing against "behind" pictures.:D
 
i'm newer to the forum, I don't have a set description of what a herper should look like. I don't think, especially these days, that herp people can be stereotyped. Anyway I'm the one in the green shirt (family shot). For those of you that don't know me(which is probably all of you) I keep and breed boas ball pythons and some colubrids.
