    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.

    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....

just wondering who's going to the Carlisle show in Oct.

I'm going to be a vendor at the Carlisle show in PA and just wondering who else is going to be there, either vendor or customer.

Jerry,

Glad to have you coming to the show! Please make sure to stop by and say hello, and if I am not at my tables, tell someone at the table to find me so we can meet up in person if you would like. If you have any questions before the show, feel free to get in touch. I would also love to hear from you (and anyone) after the show with feedback on how they think things went. I will have a survey posted online after the show for feedback as well.

If anything, I expect a good fun show with lots of cool animals. Being the first show, I am not getting my hopes up too much, but I know the interest is out there, and I am getting lots of calls and emails from people saying they are coming. We are also still picking up vendors, and I expect/hope for more to sign up after the big MARS show this weekend.

So, who else is coming along? I will be there with bells on (and probably a big bottle of Tylenol, hyped up on caffeine, not slept in a few days because of the excitement, and a big stupid grin that it is finally happening!)

Hey Kelly,
Can you bring some extra Tylenol and caffeine for me and my son. My son could barely sleep last night because I showed him the floor plan where we will be positioned and my friend showed us a sample sign with our logo on it. It is really going to be a bonding thing for Buddy and I. He is so happy that we will have a day of just doing "our" thing while Dad and little sister Tessie can go to Libby Lus to get makeovers....lol.

Jerry,
I was hemming and hawing about going...I really think I was just nervous to take it to the next level (human nature...fear of the unknown) but once I made the decision I am so happy and excited. If you have any inventory at all you might want to still consider it for this year. I just figured, what do I have to lose? $75? That's not even one dragon and I have so much to potentially gain. I do look forward to seeing you at the show whether as a vendor or a spectator/customer/show goer(don't really know the word here, figured I would cover my butt).
You can get more details if you want by clicking here.

I hope this worked.

Yall wont be able to miss me...big fat guy with a scruffy beard in a bright red four-wheel drive electric wheelchair. (Long story, that I'm often tempted to tell after a shot or two of a good premium bourbon :) ). The chair makes shows and expos a bit of a problem, that's why I'm interested in this one. Large aisles and plenty of space should be a welcome change. Look forward to seeing you both, as well as any family/crew members you bring along.

Dale - In my case it's not the 75 bucks. I'm sure I'll spend that and more at the show LOL. I just haven't vended a show in several years and what supplies I still have left are deep in the bowels of the shed out back. Trust me, if I see people ohh-ing and ahh-ing over bugs and tiny lizards and frogs, I'll have my son dig it all out over his holiday break.
 
You should check with Kelly and see if any other vendors will have what you offer, if not you will corner the market... :)
Are you talking feeder bugs or bugs as pets?
 
Jerry,

Glad to talk to you in PMs! I will keep you updated on show progress for 2009, and we will talk! Either way, I look forward to meeting you at the show, so make sure to hunt me down and say hello!

Kelly
