WEEK IN REVIEW !!!!!!!

toshamc Dec 22, 2006 06:05 PM

What does a BLACK PASTEL make Next week there will be a quiz on what Cinnys make

High White on Spiders Where does the white come from? Selective breeding or random … Majority leans towards randomness.





Congratulate Neil and Andrea Golli on the Birth of Ethan Golli

OH Press: Snake Attack AKA the 13 foot Attack Ball Python Thread – This might have ended up in the Thread From Hell section had this not been so funny (and I mean that in the clerical error sort of way – not the poke fun at the dead guy kind of way). In a nutshell – man reaches into cage to get out his 13 foot ball python hits his head passes out the snake constricts him – someone calls 911 and they taser the animal from his dead body.

Stubborn female won't lock up – No matter how “right” or perfected your breeding regime is – sometimes she just isn’t ready, willing and able. Try a different male or wait ‘er out! Good luck!

why are ball pythons illegal in ny – for those that missed this thread – balls are legal in New York State – but they are still banned in New York City.

Quote of the week:

Satan’s take on Santa

Well, that was the invention of society, to create commerce and give people an excuse to be nice to each other. A PAGAN holiday?

Could be.......(Church lady)...

But reality was to create a character so ridiculous people would have no choice but to smile.

The Jewish faith does not believe in such stupidity...imagine way back when a big fat man comes to give you gifts? I bet there were far fewer fat jolly men back then...now imagine his garb? They would have nailed his double bubble ass to the cross!

If it happened in colonial times...hmmm.... let's say in Salem, Massachusetts. He would come prancing into town and they would instantly catch his ass and conclude he was some kind of WITCH!!

Burn him, BURN him!!!!!

The idea of a big fat happy man that has yet to suffer a MASSIVE heart attack squeezing himself down a chimney to land in your house and give you presents is only the imagination of a retarded greedy society. Now - a - days he would be detected by your home security system and arrested..... serving 5-8 for B and E and perversion. Or maybe just plain shot?

I certainly don't think he would make it some of the tougher neighborhoods..... His reindeer? They would have been long gone...a hunters trophy....

Ian Gizanizsoznoseski...he would have taken at least all of the spikes and four pointers out of season while they were sleeping and may have even tried killing a few at birth.

A big fat man that gives us greedy Americans presents for being good?

We think just a bit too highly of ourselves...

When I come to power we are gonna play.... You have done many bad things and now its time to PLAY and PAY!

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Kwanzaa, Festive Solstice, Happy Festivus!

♫♫♫ I saw snakey kissing Santa Claus underneath the mousletoe last night ♫♫♫

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the snake room
Not a creature was stirring except for the Gaboon
All the snakes were nestle waiting with much anticipation
Except for those in mid copulation

For it was Christmas Eve and according to the cat
They were told that Santa would deliver a rat
So all the good snakes lay in wait
A plate of cookies they used as bait

As midnight approached the snakes were practically dying
Could this Santa be real? Or was the cat really lying?
Into the snake room entered a man jolly and fat
He went to each cage and dropped in a rat

To each little rat the snakes gave a hug and a kiss
To Santa they gave a big “Thank you” Hissssss
They heard him exclaim as they took their first bite
Merry Christmas little snakies and to all a good night!

every1 loves making the WIR!

Dear "xtreme-xteriors";
I'm afraid I'm with "EmberBAll" on this one ... even though I'm not a 'Ball-P' keeper, I am Ball-P friendly and have had some modest experience with them.
However, it seems that whenever I contribute to your unique Forum. it's with a another "venomous, 13-foot ball python eats bus-load of lawyers ... while going over a cliff" press item.
I open the door of your forum, shout 'grenade!' ... and then close the door and leave!
I only wish that once, just once, I could bring you people some good news in the open press about your critters!
I'm happy to contribute to threads ... even if it becomes the feared (albeit potentially honourable-mention) 'Thread from Hell'. I only wish I wasn't always the harbringer of black press!
I love the WIR in that it gives me a 'smap shot' of everything that happened in the forum without having to go through each thread ... I only wish that when my initiated threads get mentioned, that it could have been for a 'better reason'.
Oh well, at least guys don't "sheet the messenger" ... yet!
Cheers and respects
Wes, your ball python friendly paperboy!

I still love you Tosha, are you still getting my emails?

EmberBall Dec 23, 2006 03:57 PM

Formula for making the WIR:

1-Go to local pet store and find yourself a Ball.
2-Buy said Ball, and then take some lousy pics of it.
3-Post the pics, labeled as NEW MORPH....

XtremeXteriors Dec 23, 2006 04:00 PM

repost the same pics 200000x for people to see and then yell at you for it!

EmberBall Dec 23, 2006 04:07 PM
