    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....

    Crotalus Adamanteus - Why so few in the hobby?

    I've watched the forums here for a few years now and enjoy looking at the ads and photos. I especially like the venomous section. I have noticed that very few eastern diamondbacks are traded, especially considering how broad their distribution and as common as they are in many areas. Many other...

    I adopted this lizard four or five years ago from a local rescue and he was already named "Cujo". He was already full grown when I got him, and they really didn't know how old he was.

    Let's talk about handheld amatuer band radios

    I'm looking at hand held ham band radios as a form of backup commo. My cell phone is a bit 'iffy' out here in the sticks as it is, and the first sign of trouble, like tonight's/tomorrow's scheduled deracho, both phone and electric will become scarce. I've got a couple CB radios, but their bulk...
