    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.

    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....

Bad Guy Jay Sommers/super show/USFW/axolotl

If a mod or admin would like to guide me on how to change my profile city and state I will gladly do so. (Please message me on how to do so) Jay none of those post exist. Stop trying to deflect this post as I do not sell those species.

This is my last response on here. I will refrain from posting and let the eyes of the public make their own decision.

Mike your excuse in not paying Yusuke has nothing to do with health. You bought frogs for years after this only when you didn't have money to pay him was there an issue with the frogs. And you never said anything about health. Your excuse all along has been that you were lies to about color. He has a 4000$ judgment against you so someone must think you are in the wrong.
Yes I was nice to you. You obviously we're looking to me for help. I gave it to you.
If you think you have some dirt on me for axolotls than contact california dept of fish and game. I am happy to speak to them. In fact I have many many times. Who do you think usfw and california dept of fish and game contact when they bust someone in CA with axolotls?? Me. And yes I have proof of this. I always have very specific well defined proof. Where's yours???
Furthermore I find it funny you say this when you have Boi posts about you selling hedgehogs, alligators and other illegal species in California. And to this day. Right now. It says you live in the city of Spokane and the state of Washington.

Mike you just made a video 2-3 days ago on facebook about how you were going to destroy me and CHer. And you called her a snot nosed brat!
You just called bob 2 days ago and talked all kinds of crap to him. Leave him out of this. He is 76 years old. You did threaten him. You made some reference about goin public with some newt info and the whites incident. Face it you have burned your bridges. You are not allowed in the property. Now let it go.focus on your issues.

So show some proof.
I'll find your specific post where you say you aren't paying Yusuke because of his fraudulent claims about color. In fact you said you and a group of people were doing a class action lawsuit. You never once mentioned health. And you continued to buy hundreds of frogs from him after the issues you are referencing. It could have been all your fault husbandry human error i have no clue.
And clearly there is a lot of twisting of my words gokng on here. It's obvious.

Barry

Mike opened the door by mentioning the subject himself. However, I've said what I needed to say. I am hoping that along with this generally restrained set of postings, he will do right by the child.

This will be my only response Jay. Yes, you did sell me axolotl at the super show. 2 juvies and 4 small ones. I did not know of the legality at the time of the transaction and sadly they died within a week. I was not experienced with them and did not understand the water temps had to be kept cool.

As far as "bullying" the only person I see bullying and attacking is you Jay. Following the video that was done in April I have had very few interactions with Cher online. You have attacked me everyday since last week and continued to do so without me responding to your post. That would be cyber bullying.

This post is not a deflection. I have withheld this for years as I did not want to throw you under the bus. Even though you attacked me on the ML Richardson post regarding the whites from Bob and post about Yusuke and his frogs. You asked me to post it Jay.

As far as bullying bob mallioux at Sandfire I have no idea what you are talking about. I have only done things for Bob and free of charge. Including picking up imported whites for him and delivering them 180 miles round trip for free. Bob has not addressed me about any of this. I have no idea what you have told him behind scenes. There is no bullying proof because I haven't done anything to Bob. He is a friend of ours and you tried to use your "power" to disrupt that friendship.

Let's do. You and your tag team partner here think you will silence me or stop me from talking? I knew when I spoke up about Cher I was going to have to deal with stuff like this. It will not shut me up.
Posting some incomplete screenshots of conversations years ago that I don't have nor do I even fully recall is not going to make you look good mike matson. It does not vindicate you.

I will say this one last time. I never claimed to be an angel walking among mortals. I am human. If I said some off color remark in private, joking, in confidence i apologize for that. I can assure you it wasn't directed at a specific person. And I am sure it was in reference to something specific. I have a very broad sense of humor. Anyone that knows me knows that I joke constantly. You know who else has potty humor?? Amy schumer, Richard prior, George carlin. So that's the best you got? If it was such a huge issue than why did you with hold it for years???? You say to protect me??? Bahaha that's hilarious.

You say the video about CHer was in April like that was lifetimes ago. It was two months. Hardly a huge span of time.
And if you get your slate clean after two months and that should be forgotten why exactly are you posting screen shots from years ago with no dates attached. I probably didn't even live in California yet. I don't know but I've been here over 3 years.
 
Actually all I see here is yet ANOTHER 3 way chest beating, ego speaking farcebook drama unfolding.
TBH it is getting difficult to even look at the BOI these days as it appears to be the same old same old every other thread.
Different aspects maybe but that is about it.
And no, this is not intended as a slight against any of the three main protagonaists but honestly just HOW many BOI threads do we really need from you guys?
 
Mike, I have to admit that I am stunned...but not for the reasons you would have it so.

Firstly, you got banned for inciting cyber-bulling against a 15 year old girl. Jay didn't "get you banned" from a show--You Did.

Secondly, between yourself and Barry, you appear to think that you have turned the BOI into an off-kilter wresting match of: Mike Matson tag-team with Barry vs Jay. Rather than helping your case (which you seem to, confusingly, believe) it just confirms what Jay has been saying all along: you don't know when to stop and you recruit your friends to attack others on your behalf.

Finally, reading through all the text messages you posted, NONE of them indicate what you claim! The "haha" behind the "offer" of the endangered animal make it obvious that it was a joke. The references to the other stuff is meaningless when you have blacked out the rest of the conversation.

"I won't post here any more after this"...? Yea, right. You would cut off your nose to spite your face.

Because this is what the younger wave of hobbyist is like and I am allowing myself to get worked up and sucked into it. But I can assure you that it's not easy to be mature when dealing with these two. Especially with all the behind the scenes bs im dealing with. I have a lot of nonsense I am keeping private because it's not relevant. So I guess I should just not respond to both of these guys. But it's not easy when you are under full attack. Here in the boi, behind your back in private, on their private facebook pages and the subject of videos where they threaten to destroy you. All the while playing victim. So put yourself in my shoes. It's easy to say you would react differently.
Remember all of this is because of me sticking up for
A 15 year
Old girl who was being cyber bullied on mike Matsons facebook. A 10
Minute video about a child. I didn't start the boi posts in mike he already had multiple bad guy boi's about him. I've started none
 
Forgot this pic. Jay offering to bring the axolotl to the show....

Now let's stay on topic with the subject matter.

Like I said folks I was fully aware I was going to be hammered for sticking up for this young girl Cher. Mike and his friend love the fact that the spotlight is on someone other than them right now. Believe me I can take it. And it's not going to stop me from speaking up

Sure that was california? Not a show in another state? I don't recall and frankly even if I traded you axolotls in California you had them in your possession. To my knowledge you lived in Oregon.

Jay, you will notice that (in my last post) I said that Mike would cut off his nose to spite his own face?

Mike? How, exactly, do you think that calling out Jay will in any way absolve you of the abusive behavior, misspoaced trust, and out-right thievery you have repeatedly engaged in...?

Yes, Jay. It was in California. As the screen shot in earlier messages shows that you were going to ask Ramy at the super show for badges.

This screen shot below you telling me to not get caught with them.

Jay I realize that I received 6 of them from you and I will pay the fine if one is given. However, you were the one that either is housing them in California or brought them across state lines to sale. Both are illegal to do.

Stop rambling on Jay and lying. You had me banned from the show without a doubt. Ramy has yet to message me about my ban.....

Nothing in that video is bullying. It is disproving someone that has posted false information about my company.

As far as living in Oregon I have never. I left Washington state in 2011. Should I post employment verification documents here showing that I worked/lived in Southern California?

I'm tired of the back and forth Jay and everyone else is here also. You are caught up in lies. I told you this would be posted if you kept going on about me. You disregarded that and continued.

I'm willing to let this lay here and not post any further. Are you?

Washington oregon whatever I have always gotten the two confused.
Post all you want about me Mike I don't care. It isn't going to stop me from sticking up for a kid. You are posting stuff from years ago.

If it was a legal state/transaction they why say "don't get caught with them"? As for years ago what's difference? My probs were years ago also Jay. Is there a statute of limitations we are talking here? The prob is you open your big mouth, expect people not to reply and when they do, you play the victim. Again, passive/aggressive.
 
Well barru im actually debating whether or not I should post sensitive emails between me and California dept of fish and game agents right now. So let me ponder that because I def could get into trouble by doing so.
See Barry what you and mike don't know is that I am actually really smart. So you guys can continue to do what you do. It won't shit me up. And I am not in trouble.
Nor have I ever been in trouble with any wildlife agency state or federal. Zero.
So you reference your troubles and talk about mine but I have none.
