That sounds like a city that would wear its shirt unbuttoned revealing a thick gold chain. I think it would have slicked back hair and a tan, too.

xD edgar you're hilarious.
And yes, I at least had a killer party last night to make up with todays absense. Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow, so no show for me! Sniffles. But there's always the even bigger sac show... I'm sure I would have ended up buying something had I gone today, anyways. I dont need any more snakes. The snake rack I just ordered is already going to be full...

So, who went? And, how was it?? Where are the photos and detailed reports. Did Ricky get escorted out of the building by security? Who knows? We need some answers, mans. _________________ Edgar Support the fight against "The Python Ban" www.Calris.org

A big thank-U to James Tuttle for his excellent roommate referral service at the SJ Reptile Show. I now have a Pamphobeteus platyomma, a G. pulchra and the absolutely outrageous Ephebopus cyanognathus!
Reptile shows!!! I always say I have enough pets and I'm just going to buy supplies, but I mysteriously end up taking home some new critters.
This afternoon I chatted briefly with Ken the Bug Guy and James of Blaberus.com. These guys know their stuff and have quality animals. There were a couple other vendors selling a few tarantulas but imho these two had the best quality specimens.
I ended up bringing home a young Pamphobetus nigricolor and a B. vagans sling. I really don't know much about the P. nigricolor species but it was so gorgeous and James showed me it was not a picky eater. Its healthy feeding response was demonstrated when James dropped in a little roach. I also acquired the start of a Madagasgar hissing cockroach colony. I've kept hissers before and miss having them in the classroom to keep the annoying parents away. :)
I really should stop going to these reptile shows.... but I doubt I will stop!
