    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....

Nicolai, you found the family album! Hi everyone...

Hey gang,
It has been a very, very long time! Years! Alisha Nicole emailed me and showed me the thread on you guys catching up and I decided to sign up and say hello to some of the old gang.
I am in New Jersey. I have not touched the gexfiles.com site in a very long time. I am no longer with Mike, as Marcia said, we broke up over a year and a half ago. I have been in Northern Jersey since Aug 2002. I lost my sweet Bully boy in 2003 and I was sad and lonely after that and going through personal stuff at that time I was pretty down. HOWEVER... things are great now. I just got rehired for my 4th year teaching Advertising Art & Design at a Vocational High School and loooooove it. I also teach fitness classes (spinning) and ran my first marathon in January in Bermuda. It has been a ride to say the least.
I still have sassy Roman, flighty Butterfly Butt, pretty Baby, goofy Muppet, beautiful Esmie, big boy Glyn... but sadly... Matisse died mysteriously very recently. I have 2 additions that you guys may not know about. I have a phelsuma ornata (nicknamed rocket butt but really named Mulan, by keats' daughter, Olivia) I got her from Steve, he used to post as Steve18, Steve19, etc, on the kingsnake forum and I acquired a sweet male fat tail from Brett (hypo tangerine dreams) his name is Caesar and he is just sooo beautiful and sweet.

I would love to find out more about what is going on with everyone too! Please post your news!
I doubt my website will be updated, I just have no time for that anymore. I still reply to any "help! is my gecko ok?" emails from kids, still talk to managers when I go into pet stores and see.

Please post and say hello! It's great to see some old names here. Thanks Alisha Nicole for dropping a line about this, it brought a smile to may face :)

Hi Trace! :wavey:

Sounds like you are doing just great! Glad to hear that. I am sorry to read about the passing of Bull, that is sad. I remember all the pics you would post of Bull on the Gecko Forum, such a sweetie.

As for me, I'm still breeding leos and a few other geckos. My kids are getting older (Conor is 3, Hayden is 13) and I am enjoying watching them grow up, and being able to stay home with them :)

Thanks for the update and I hope you pop in here every now and then! :)
 
Hello again!!!

Wow...its been a long time. Last time i saw you was two years ago at the whiteplains or hamburg show where you had a table with mike one row over from me.
I am so glad that you ended up here. I wish we could dig up everyone else as well. I am still in central NJ (point pleasant) with wife and kids. I am just now getting back into the leopard geckos after a few years off.
Sorry to hear about bull. I felt like i knew him personally with all the pictures i have seen of him. This forum and its people are just as if not more fun then the old group. Leopard geckos have come a long way in a few years.
Do you still keep a lot of other reptiles?? You will definetely have to join the next gecko chat.
Ever here from gex-anon or corey or big-daddy-leo?? Or the other girl from canada ( i cant remember her name, i just remember that pic she posted where she was wearing all black. :) )
 
Great to hear from you...

Wow now that's a blast from the past...
Glad to hear things are going well and you are busy as usual.
I still have leos and have been breeding and selling them locally for quite a few years. I have some cresties and a beardie now as well and oh ya 2 kids... Katie 6 & Jacob 2.
Would love to see a pic of Baby if you get a chance...
Take Care

There you are!

I am so glad you signed up Trace! I am a recent member myself to the forum but LOVE it! When you sit at a desk all day like I do, this forum helps the hours go by much faster . .
I already knew about Bull's passing, but did not know about Matisse. I am so sorry to hear that. :(
Congrats on your re-hire, that is wonderful! And I still don't understand how you can TEACH spinning! I take a class every Thursday night and it is PURE torture! I am literally crawling out of the gym when I get off the bike!
And then I down a huge, fattening Frappucino! :crap:
lol, well I am thrilled to see you post! Talk to ya soon!
