Better Things To Do

DanTheFireman Aug 02, 2004 10:28 PM

Boy, you guys are really missing it. You're cleaning and feeding , looking at the forum, maybe pulling a baby out of the incubator. You could be down here on South Beach wearing the latest, rubbing elbows with STARS. Working as a medic Friday night I was fortunate enough to share some of the moments you missed. You could have 1) OD'd on GHB and Ecstasy and had a tube down your throat AND up your urethra 2) Rolled your Beemer and had some awesome lacerations AND a compound femur 3) Gotten your butt kicked, a 3 inch laceration on your 22 year old head and cried your macho-ganger eyes out 4) Stabbed in the left lung AND heart with a bottle over a parking space (at least you'd never have to clean another cage) 5) Fallen and cracked your drunken skull 6) Pepper sprayed or Tazered by the police ... Maybe this weekend you'll take a break from those silly little lizards and have some REAL fun.

Oh yeah? That's nuthin'. I saw this fella at a local reptile show last week that tried to steal this other guy's dinner - and now he's got a STUB for a tail. Really, my son is a respiratory therapist over here and you guys are awesome (and my daughter's an opthalmologist and my wife's an ER nurse). AND our geckos have more common sense and more redeeming social value than many of the people we deal with.

Hey Dan, Thanx. Better them than us. I was an accountant for 14 years, this IS a vacation. I'm at work right now, only work 90 long days a year, Daytona Expo is 2 weeks away and we get a little vacation every time an egg hatches.

Wow... you REALLY need a vacation (Maybe a trip to Daytona... lol). Sorry you had a rough shift... if it makes you feel any better the leos you sold me are doing GREAT and I just love ]them!

I'll trade you a hatchling carrot tail for a sesame with lox & cream cheese. And could you please toast it? Thanx.
