• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Strange bugs, transformation

I took these to post in the insect forum, for someone to hopefully identify, but the manage attatchments option won't come up....so here they are. I found these hatching on a leaf in my mulberry tree. I stuck them in a plastic container to see if these were baby lady bugs [ LOL, I k now ] but just look at what they turned in to the very next day ! I suspected they were stink bugs, and drowned them. If anyone can confirm ? Anyway, I took these with a Canon Powershot [ the only camera I own ]Thanks....

Yep, those are stink bugs. They look like "Halyomorpha halys" AKA brown marmorated stink bugs.
