    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

In case you guys dont know, someone on this board is going to turn another year older.  I think he will be ohhhh some wheres around 52. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>  

So lets all dog the crap out of him for the next week.  The big day is the 21st.  So dont be late with the well wishes and razz him a bit.

Happy B-Day

I cant imagine getting to that age. It seems so far away for me.  Almost like another lifetime.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

I have said it before and I will say it again,

Bua hahahahahahahahahahaha
 
Damned dislexia!  I inverted the numbers.  I'm really only going to be 25.  It's this darned board that has made me look and feel like 52.

Just respect your elders, sonny, and no one will get hurt.  I'm a terror with this cane, and NOBODY can outrun me when I'm using my walker.

p.s. If anyone needs my address to send the presents to, just let me know.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>
 
I was not even a wet dream when he turned 18.............

webslave you old fart......jk

happy early birthday.
 
Man!  And I thought Jeff Ronne and I were old!!!!!

Acutally Jeff is a month older than me....  but don't tell him...


Happy birthday man, and thanks for the BOI
 
Maybe we should start a fund for Geritol and Depends. I have 6 kids and I know how expensive diapers can be. With Social Security so close he will surely need help with the daily necessities!

Happy Bday!

Webslave, I'm not going to rag you like the other guys about you being old...er.  And besides, if I did, you'd probably just forget anyway ya geezer!  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

But seriously, take pride in the fact that you have a massive positive impact on this hobby!  I've never met you Rich, but from what I know about you, you're a great guy!  Thanks for everything!

Oh, and do what I do, celebrate your birthday for the entire week before and after, just to make sure you do it right!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICH!!!
 
Rich...It all "depends" on how you look at it....you could say that in a week, you'll be 624 months old! Or...you're really only 7-1/2 in dog years?? Or, you will be celebrating the 23rd anniversary of your 29th year...Or, I'm not sure of the exact math...but, you're only like 32 years old Celsius!!
It's all between the ears, pal!! Happy Birthday, no matter how you want to look at it!! ....Neil
 
Man you guys are all a week early with this.  You all know something I don't?  My heart still feels OK..... Well most of the time.  Every once in a while a good thump on the chest gets me kick started again.  And I keep a stun gun handy as a kind of do it your self defibrilator.  Of course, with over 5,000 corn snake eggs ready to pop open, I WILL be breathing a sigh of relief if I make it to November this year.

Are you all drawing straws to see who will take this over when I kick the bucket?

BTW, for my 50th birthday I bought myself a 50 caliber rifle to celebrate.  I may go and pop off a few rounds on my actual birthday.

Thanks, you guys.........
 
Happy birthday Rich.....
Hopefully the only thing age will bring you is wisdom.

Happy b day man!!! 50cal? alright, you do any hunting with it? percussion or flintlock?I dont know if you can hunt with highpower rifle or not in FL but we could in PA back home and they used to give me #### because I would always bring the 50cal, mines a percussion, i just couldnt bring myself to hunt with high power after being in the military seemed to easy, that and my AK was illegal to hunt with lol, anyway heres an early HAPPY BDAY!!!
 
That's 50 BMG!  As in Barrett.  750 grains at 2800 fps.

You don't hunt anything with this when you want enough left of it to bring home for the table.   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>

You think thats big, you see my 300 Ultra Mag by Remmington.  Its one of those guns you shoot anything you can see from mountain to mountain.  No need to hike over and get closer.  LOL  You can just reach out and touch someone.   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>  Took it deer hunting in Texas, and at 850 yards it blew the crap out of that deer.  Only thing left was the head and feet.  Needless to say, he didnt run or even take a step.  Looked like a mortor went off in him threw the scope.  Yuk
 
Tim - You're joking, right?  You don't seriously believe that the Remingon 300 Ultra Mag delivers a bigger wallop than a 50 BMG do you?
 
Yepp, Im just teasing you ole farts.  I am very familair with bullistics of both.  I have an extensive arsinal at my ranch along with dogs.  If the dogs miss, I assure you I WONT.

My biggest mistake was teaching my wife and monster-in-law how to shoot pistols.  Now they are better than I am.  I sleep very lightly these days and in short durations. Most of that time is with one eye open too. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Boys, nothing...now now...no blanket statements here...girls can love big guns too ::ahem::

Anyone know where you can buy a shotgun for a 5 foot midget chick that won't blow my own head off?
Happy early birthday Mr. Webslave.

Sue
 
Happy Birthday Rich!!  I don't know anything about guns to add to your delightful conversation (Delightful?  IS that the word I wanted to use?!?)  But what little I know about snakes is all thanks to you not letting me give up when I got discouraged!!!

(Rich sold me my first corn snakes last September, and then was THE NICEST guy to this terribly annoying customer&#33<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> Thanks Rich!

Happy Birthday!!
 
I'll chime in and say happy birthday a few days early as well!  

52 is nothing--you're just half way there!

People with July birthdays are the best!  (Ok, I'm 5 days behind you--and a good # of years, but close enough, eh?).

Have a good one.

Dana
 
I would have sent you a bottle of wine, but silly Florida and their laws...

Happy Birthday Rich!

Never really took it dear hunting in Texas.  Was just foolin around with the B-Day boy.  Really got it for Elk hunting in Montana and Wyoming.  Even took it bear hunting in upper Sascachewan.  But deer, naa I do that with an ole fashion recurve bow with hand made cedar shaft arrows.

The purest way to do it.  Short of using a knife.  But I did go wild boar hunting in Tennesee on the Cumberland Plateau near Clarckrange.  Used a 6 foot metal spear and stabbed a 400 pounder in the heart.  Hung on for my life.  Now thats real hunting at its best.
