    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....

S373 python Ban Hearing Set!!!!!

I can't file ALL of my equipment as a total loss, as I intend to keep it and start with other species, if this goes through. I'm still going to do all I can to prevent that, but I would rather have plans than not.
 
you CAN file all of your equipment, just shoot me an email at [email protected] and ill explain how this can be done and why .

i have more info on my father in laws tax service including website but i am not going to give it out on this site but i will have it on my website within 24hrs and you can contact him through the link on my site. i will be starting a new thread about this because i dont think its proper to address this matter more on this thread. i will cal the new thread Reptile business tax info. thanks

Guitarist lol, and a Second degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do,Fitness Trainer for youth at the local Gym,Fire arm training,Computer Skill no but I am taking classes.
 
lol those are great skills but they are not looking for those lol and as far as firearms, they are illegal their unless you have a permit for being a guide in the outback ad those are very limited lol i gues there they think people are just dumb enough to :shootfoot :rofl:
 
I need to Get skills they need. lol.
Heck my father pushed/made my to Do Karate since I was a Young teen lol.
Word is they Stopped interstate transport and Importing of burms and retics WHich sucks Because Most of my collection Consist of 15 foot burms/retics.
 
hell ban or not the way i see it if you have a python in tx i want hell ill drive from nc to get it and ill wrap it up in a nice box and put birthday wrapping on it and a bow and say its for family if i get pulled on the way home lol hell they can not open the box and if they get a k9 out there it wont smell like drugs or gun powder so they cant do a damn thing lol i know, i am a criminal justic grad :thumbsup:
 
Yeah I would Love to Have them pull out my 150 pound 15 foot albino Burm She would love to have the Guys in black/blue in her belly LMAO all Kidding aside I just heard that from some Guy in the chatroom Nothing is confirmed I thought it was just a hearing though SO They cannot make final judgements.

Just Let me Have a Ambrams M1A2 Tank So I can Drive with my snake pals or Fly first Class with a F-22A Raptor lol.....But They dont realize how this Will effect Petshops and the Economy....petshops with no snakes boring noone wants to go there,It of course will not make the economy Downfall,But Just a little more hurts you know.

Not only the money but these really are wonderful creatures nOt scary monsters Like the MAinstream Media likes ot say With their One way primitive brains like to think they are gentle Non stinky smart Animals.
 
yeah it will take about another year for everything to go through if it is passed, it will have to pass the senate then go back to the house for the amendment to pass then to the president for him to sign. i think we need to start working hard at the house again and someone needs to get a big rally started 2 days before they go into vote on it and the day of the vote, the more people show up to rally the less they can turn their heads and ignore whats going on. letters dont work but that doesnt mean not to send them but rallies do work. they cant walk right by people yelling and not hear or see whats going on. they dont have to read the letters, they pay someone to bs people that email and write letters but cant ignore someone in their face. another thing though even if shipping interstate is banned that doesnt mean shipping airport to airport will be banned though, they can be shipped like venomous. besides i'm getting out of boas and pythons all together anyway and just working with hots and others snakes in US, i'm doing shows for schools now to teach kids about the snakes of the US and some cobras and rattlers from other countries but mostly just US but noone should have their freedom screwed with like this. next they will tell me i cant spit my tobacco on the street, they start telling me that i'll spit some beechnut right in their eye :NoNo:
 
Thats really the Only reason I have the Big ones is for the kids they Love them.
However The house dont realize how many people are in this Hobby.
Its a Very good hobby Just like breeding Dogs Different breeds and colors but the same money Some stuff around Similar Prices.
 
yeah, im going to try to get something together after we find out when the next hearing is going to be and i hope more people will rally than 3 or 4, that would be very disappointing and would hurt the cause that much more. i know people are hurting right now but if we dont take a couple days off work to rally this thing we might lose it and then more people will be hurting even more
 
:hurray:GOOD NEWS! I HAVE GOT IN TOUCH WITH 1 SENATOR AND HE IS WILLING TO MEET AND SPEAK WITH ME PERSONALLY ABOUT THIS! IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT WHAT WE CAN DO FOR THE REPTILE WORLD PLEASE EMAIL ME AT [email protected] WITH YOUR IDEAS AND I CAN BRING THEM UP TO HIM WHEN WE MEET! EVERYONE CROSS YOUR FINGERS ON THIS, HE SEEMS VERY OPEN TO OUR ISSUES! ONE SENATOR BRINGING NEW IDEAS TO THE SENATE WILL HELP US GREATLY!! THANKS :hurray:
 
yep and the sad thing is nobody has wrote me with any ideas lol guess everyone cares alot for this dont they? guess everyone was just running off their mouth and no willing to put in to get something out of it but hell at least i'm trying all i can. if the bill passes you will hear alot more complaints on here about it but hell most of them that complain wouldnt have ever tried to do anything. i'm going to finish typing up my proposal tonight and if others dont like it its their own fault cause noone wanted to chime in. i guess everyone if giving a big screw u to the reptile world :shrug01: the way i see it is dont complain if u have done nothing or going to do nothing about it. at least u commented :thumbsup: shoot me your thoughts on a compromise, at least 2 of us can get on this. thanks
 
I'll try and keep this in my mind today and if something comes into my old cranium that might be helpful I will for definitely sure be letting you know! Otherwise I am just stoked to hear what you have going on and have no doubt you will represent well for the nation!!! I guess I could say is that when you do meet up with him...it is probably best to dress and look the part as I think most of the world thinks we are a bunch of tatoo'd drunken and stoned MMA wannabe hooligans. Not that we should have to be fake, but this is something we want to come across as best as possible with for those that see us as only low life's ya know. I wish things could be based off of intelligence and not looks, but most of the country does not have the intelligence part going for them....and a good amount of those people are now working in our government.
 
I hear ya. I can only go so far from my redneck roots. So it's cowboy boots, newly washed pair of jeans, a white buttoned-up, and a nice jacket to make sure it covers all the stains ;) lol. I'll even wash before going and put my hair in a ponytail for him, and maybe wear some of that smell-good stuff, lol. But seriously, when I get done it will be right. I agree with you. When it's all over, I expect more points on fauna. lol

btw what's wrong with tattooed-drunken MMA wannabes? lol
 
HAHAHA!!!! Right on brother!!


Yeah I dont know whats wrong with it either, but they sure dont seem to think to highly of us do they ;-)
 
Now is the time for us to pray. They can't do this! It's not the fact that they are banning pythons/boas that bothers me the most, its that fact that they are trying to take away another freedom! In GOD we trust AMERICA! We are supposed to be the nation of freedom! There is a God, and he can be the one to pull us out of this! I am sorry to get all religious on you people, but don't you agree? I know I will be praying.

Jeremy
