• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

THIS IS NOT MY TORTOISE FYI. Craigslist post as follows for a DT~~

AZ native desert tortoise needs new home * aprx. 40-year-old male - been in our family almost that long - aprx. 6-7 lbs. and 12-inches long * long-term commitment needed from you as tortoises live 80-100 years * NO swimming pools, NO dogs, NO African Sulcata Tortoises on your property * If you already have a male desert tortoise, two males will fight. . ..if you have a female desert tortoise you'll need to separate the male and female or they will create multiple babies you'll need to find homes for * You have to be willing to feed your new friend a daily healthy diet when he's not hibernating - tortoises hibernate in the winter months so you'll have to build him a den and I'll help you * you'll need a secure, fenced yard preferably with some grass, vegetation and shade * I'll want to come to your home to verify you have the right habitat * go online and Google "AZ desert tortoise" before you call me -- learn about the animal you're interested in adopting so we can have a constructive conversation * call Scott @ 480-216-8668 between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm -- if you get my voice mail leave a message, I'll return your call. Phone inquiries only -- will not respond to text messages or emails. ​
