    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....

Florida Fish and Wildlife now Monitoring the BOI?

these stories kill me

it just reiterates my hatred for mankind, I think we need to seriously look at the way we do justice in this country, it should all be based on payback!!
 
Actually the only folks I am really inclined to allow in my house *are* the officers; I don't generally let curious herp people from the Internet know where I live. The neighbors living on my street know to call me if there's a coral or a pygmy in their yard. So my immediate neighbors know where I am, and the officers, and that's about it.

Since I've helped educate some of the local police and sheriffs about snakes, I think they will be much less likely to freak out and think that a crime is being committed if anyone were to call in and complain about a snake collection. They are aware that some kinds of snakes need to be licensed and permitted by F&W, and that these situations are entirely in F&W jurisdiction. Most likely they'd call F&W to deal with it. The situation may be different in your area, I don't know.
 
I think we should dispense justice in this country based on the Afganistan Model. Warlordism. Instead of the Warlord Dostom, we should install the Warlord Crutchfield. Then, we could bring the accused before Tom for his decision which could not be questioned. Thank You.
