... for keeping me inspired to continue producing beautiful boas.

Sometimes there is a major struggle to stick with it... deciding whether I pay a bill or buy a new animal is tough from time to time. There is a tendency in myself to jump into things blindfolded and feet first. Always wondering after the action... will I sink or will I swim as a businessman? Those that have their life savings tied up in this know what I am talking about. When every step encounters a vision or a boaphile and you stub your toes on a rubbermaid when you contort through your place in the dark... Your dedication goes beyond logic and you'll die before you fail. When do you stop and realize that you are completely insane? Never! 'Cause crazy people walk the streets everyday. crazy people... everyday, walk the streets crazy... streets walk... everyday people. ARF! Sorry 'bout that. Now I realize that if you truly have a love for what you do... you will succeed. Keep on truckin' my friends... perseverance pays off. I know some of you think I am a headcase, and some of you aren't wrong. Supercala... what were we talking about? Oh I was... butter. 1...2...3...For those of you who work for your animals, your animals will work for you. Keep them happy because they control your life.

Watching this community progress over the years, I definitely don't want to give up now that it has come this far. You guys and gals ALL have such a passion for this hobby unlike any other that I have been involved in. The gorgeous boas that have been produced this week alone are mind-boggling... WOW!!! THE FUTURE LOOKS BLINDING!!!

Thanks for sharing this brief moment in time with... us. Ray

BTW, check out my photo album and let me know what's for dinner I'm coming over. sys

My little people
