    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.

    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.

    Fat Texas ratsnake?

    I have a female Lucy Texas Rat who eats like a champ. I otherwise own ball pythons, so she always looks skinny to me. When she is folded up, sometimes I can see the skin between the scales. Is it time to put her on a diet? I'm so used to plump snakes, which makes her look thin to me...
