    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....

I ordered some candy from See's including some peanut brittle in Halloween packaging for my grand baby. It arrived today in a foam lined box with ice packs, just like reptiles are packed. :)
 
So did you anticipate seeing- even if it was only for a split second- a deli cup full of moss?
 
I tried to keep an open mind, I LOVE chocolate and the g'baby is going to love her peanut brittle, but I was startled when I opened the box and saw the foam lining and ice packs.
The packing makes sense, no one wants to buy candy (and if you ever get an opportunity to try See's, you should)and receive a gloppy melted mess.
Of course, IRL Fauna members are everywhere and work in all walks of life, someone could have sent me a little gecko or something as a surprise if they were a member here and worked at See's. G'baby at 2 1/2 is still too young to have a pet gecko though.
