    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....

Here is my one and only Tattoo for now. It's the crown of thorns with my son and my daughter initials in it.

I had to keep it up high so my clients would not see it when I wore polo shirts. My next one will be a full shoulder tat of Asalon from Narnia as seen here

I don't like being in pictures, so there are none to post. However, when I wear my bike gear, I look like a blue power ranger. :laugh: I do have some ink, that is usually covered by a polo or Tshirt. Again sorry, no pics.
 
Looks like a biker... drives a minivan

I guess it is time I've finally contributed to a thread outside the classifieds. I just find myself so busy that I rarely have time to "socialize" on-line much anymore. I've gone from completely bald for the last 4 or 5 years to the "Grizzly Adams" look and I'm not sure if/when I'll be cutting the hair anytime soon. If I can make it through the summer, it could be quite interesting.

Tattoos, beard, long hair, over 7,000 tarantulas, scorpions, centipedes, snakes, etc... makes you wonder how a catch like me is single, huh?

LMAO, I'm not sure which pic I like the best...the sunset photo, or the one with the goat. Great pics, regardless! :)
 
It's actually a sunrise pic, but who'd have known. That one was from the top of Hermit's Peak in New Mexico. We'd camped on top on the eastern exposure and it made for an incredible morning.

The goat pic was from the ATS conference a few years back. Sad to say, the goat was my date for the weekend and was courtesy of a good friend of mine, Scott Scher. I would say it was an "inside joke", but it is fairly obvious.

I really think ppl into herps crosses all socio-economic boundries and there isn't a stereotypical look or catagory like you may have for other hobbies like Harley riders, Nascar fans, or PGA (Professional Golf Association) tour lovers.

I'm not too active in Fauna Classifieds, but more so in my local herp association forums(AHA).

Here are some pictures of me starting to go out herping in the Gila Mtns in SW AZ, my daughter Mary when she was younger with her favorite calking, my daughter with her two female corns (Creamsicle and Okeetee Abbott line), and a gf with the Okeetee corn. My daughter is 5 now, starting 1st grade next year and has been around snakes all her life. She didn't like the Brazilian Rainbow Boas because she said they gripped her too hard, so I had to move them out of the collection and now I'm down the just colubrids (kings and corns).

Went through this topic today and it was great to be able to put some faces to names seen on this site.

Happy Herping,
Uncloudy
