    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....

Gregory Bowman aka thedietcokeguy Inquiry

but i did find a pangea exotic tour listed under the herp show listings in phoenix on feb 23.
I doubt the two are connected. Pangea Research seems to be a figment in Gregory's mind. He is the self proclaimed "president and curator" of this delusion.

Actually, thedietcokeguy had listed Real Estate/Fiduciary as his profession on his Fauna profile, so possibly all the Pangea Research-Zoo-Whatevers are as Ritchie stated, a hobby that might be a business at some point.

I was rather surprised that he listed a different profession, though, as I had gotten the impression that this was a full time venture for him.

Alas, we'll probably never know more than we do already..... and that might just be a good thing!
 
Ritchie.... This will be my last post on this thread (again, lol), but, since there seems to be a little confusion about the heatpacks....

OK.... everybody take notes???.... lol

When I know a package is going to a very cold part of the country, I use THREE 40-hour heatpacks.... I arrange them like this....

I poke airholes in the TOP of the styrofoam box ONLY, about an inch in, and around all four sides, so it looks like a box of holes within the rim of the box.... I then open up ONE 40-hr heatpack and shake it to make sure it works, when it starts heating up, I wrap it in TWO PIECES of newspaper (neatly), and tape that to the inside top of the styro box, so the airholes surround it.... I then wrap the other two SEPARATELY in newspaper, and put them on each side of the animal inside the styro box.... I DO NOT put any airholes in the OUTER cardboard box, and I tape up EVERY SIDE OF THE OUTER BOX.... this keeps all the heat retained in the box.... Do it this way, and (if the heatpacks work, and don't malfunction), you can send Dart Frogs to Minnesota in the middle of the Winter, and they will get there all warm and fuzzy!! (Been there, done that!)

He must make this stuff up as he goes along.... but, that's how I packed HIS box, and that's how I pack EVERY box....

Oh yeah, if it's NOT such a cold part of the country, you DON'T need the two heatpacks on each side of the animal.... The one taped to the top is sufficient!

I can't believe this guy he's really something else.

I'm bringing this back up because I recieved an e-mail from Pay Pal from Gregory Bowman and have copied and pasted the below message from him. My reply to Gregory Bowman is also copied and pasted.

Pay Me With PayPal

Dear Serpent's Den,

gregory bowman ([email protected]) would like to be paid through PayPal.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Money Request Details


Amount: $1,500.00 USD

Note: Now that you have pleaded guilty to your crime, and the federal government has provided the paperwork, including postal fraud, which has not yet been investigated, you need to ask yourself how much will it cost you to get out of this? I would suggest you take care of your outstanding balance before several legal remedies occur including but not limited to criminal investigation for mail fraud, civil attachment of your business, home and personal assets, and the embarassment of being a crook.........Its up to you; Ill give you 1 week......after that, Steve becomes a pincushion for the feds and mail service.

Trust me, you will not regret paying what you owe now, instead of serving time for what you did earlier...... I promise.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gregory Bowman,



You are really something else. Like before when you tried to weasel me out of my animals/money and threatened me with legalities as you are now you will never see one penny from me and your threats mean nothing to me as I will also place a judgment on you as well as have you charged with harassment.

Also please note I will let the people on the BOI know that you’re still a scumbag.

Have a nice life.

Well Terese I guess that's a question Gregory Bowman will have to answer as he's totally aware this thread has re-surfaced.

Here is a reply I just got Gergory Bowman and hopefully he'll re-think this out and get a life.

defamation too? lets see, article 18 federal communications act? Why dont you tell the BOI that you pleaded guilty and paid a fine to illegally trafficing in CITES 1 without permits and mailed prohibited items in the US MAIL.? I guess I could post that on BOI too, along with the fact the US MAIL has a tag on your mail for inspection.

Youre a lot of wind for some pedantic old sack of ****. Go eat a live rat. LMAO.

Im waiting..........
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gregory,

Here is my reply to the above e-mail you sent me.
Yes I recieved two tickets from Ho Troung of the USFW and I paid my 2 tickets because it was easier and much much cheaper to do that than to hire an attorney and travel back and forth to Texas. As far as the USPS I don't know what your talking about with them tagging my mail but lets hear your BS story anyway just for laughs. I got a warning from the USPS and the only thing I use them for now is mailing out letters... Case closed.

Defamation? You dig your own hole on that one.

Whatever you have to say to me do so here because I have now blocked recieving mail from your e-mail account [email protected]

What are you waiting for?

hmmmm.... From http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=blackmail

black·mail ( P ) Pronunciation Key (blkml)
n.

Extortion of money or something else of value from a person by the threat of exposing a criminal act or discreditable information.
Something of value extorted in this manner.

I think the shoe fits, and I do believe that it's against the law, isn't it?
 
Greg Bowman was an ignorant jackass two years ago, and he remains one to this day.

Steve, since Greg is using his PayPal account to facilitate his criminal endeavour, forward the request that he sent on to to PayPal. They'll shut down his account. Also, contact his local law enforcemnt agency to report the continued harassment from this assclown.
 
Neil and Steve,

Did this idiot actually ever pursue any legal action against either of you? My assumption was that he is a gutless bag of wind and just made empty threats
 
Terese, Ken & John,

I'm going to take the advise and contact Pay Pal and his local authorities regarding his extortion tactics.
As far as Gregory pursuing any legal action against me; he has nothing to pursue :raspberry and the fact is when he tried threatening me two years ago I was the one who contacted Ho Troung of the USFW and told him the truth of this story and to this day I don't feel Python m. pimbura as being the same as Python m. molurus but paid the tickets.
 
sorry to bring up an old thread. i am not a dealer, purchaser or have any affiliations with animals but the love i have for my frenchie. I was assaulted by Gregory Bowman last friday in Montclair California.
I took actions and contacted code enforcement under the assumption that Gregory was living in his unit. Come to find out there was alot more hidden in his unit.

please see attached url for news report

here is an update for gregory bowman whoever was looking for him
