you know, I saw that book in the pet store. I leafed through it and was not impressed. I have not actually read it, so I could not say either way. It did not look like it could even be compared to the corn snake manual (if its the same book). I had never seen this book before last week, but can't remember the authors name.

ITS NOTHING BIG- misty, just dont bother spending money on it. one thing in particular is that he tells people to buy a 175 gallon aquarium and put 2 corns in it... again with the cohabitation thing... i was tempted to e-mail the guy the whole thing, but i guess that would be kinda rude, huh??

Sorry, I never learned to read.

Hhmmm OK, I know you are smarter than the person I did that to on ebay chat, and we got into a conversation why I never learned. As I made up silly reasons, my AOL IM lit up like a xmas tree.

FINALLY, "she" asked, how can you type then? I told her I was a computer programmer and I use voice recognition.

She said:

"Oh OK"

And you wonder why I'm known as a smart arse! lol
