    **************************************************
    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....

Growing up retic

He's just over 7', about 3" in diameter. I got him almost 2 years ago and he was about 2' and 1/2" in diameter when I got him.
 
I took Willard to my 1st ever show to have a table. I sold ZERO snakes, but got paid in :) and kids/grown ups over coming their fear. Got to teach them what I've learned with him over the last 2 years.

I made the cat leave and while I was taking pic's, she snuck back outside. I wouldn't do that on purpose, just as I wouldn't bring him out for the kids to come over and hold, if I felt he was being "grumpy". I know anything can happen at any given momment.
