    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. 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....

    How tame are your Kenyan sand boas?

    Because of their small size, sand boas are often called beginner snakes. But no beginner wants a snappy snake! I think it would be cool to see what the average temperment of Kenyans are in this forum. If you can, post how many KSB's you have and what age and gender they are. Ironically, I can't...

    Marion, Ohio- A Rant

    I recently had the displeasure of getting lost in this town, so I would like to officially complain about it. It's a very decent sized town, big enough to have its own mall. Half of the city is just a stretch of road with the mall, some car dealerships, restauarants, ect. ect. Kind of garish...

    Monkeypox fallout???

    I just read a news article that said importation and trade of African rodents is being banned, as well as the sale of prarie dogs, because of that stupid Gambian rat. If it had passed the disease to a guinea pig, I'd like to see them ban those. Anyway, is this accurate, and if so, is it...

    my 'blotched' king

    Well, I'm not sure what locality she is, but she sure is blotched. You can't argue with that. She enjoys sleeping all week and having her tummy rubbed. Well, she might not enjoy it, but she's too lazy to do anything about it. Erin Benner
