a few personal goals

adognamedjack Feb 13, 2013 08:21 PM

So for the last two years i have been collecting well researched and good looking pits both lacales and morphs. my intentions this whole time can be summed up to three things, first is to work with the snakes that fascinate me sooo much. not sure if you believe in evolution or not, but if you believe in adaptaion wich is proven undoubtably than my opinion is. evelution is adaptation over a countless timeline and therefore proven. and the differance between say a northern pine, southern, louisiana, and bull snake is really suttle (mostly color and pattern... wich sometimes doesnt even vary that much) and is amazing. to me this can only be acredited to an unreal amount of time seperated by geography...please dont take it personal i have religouse beliefs like most. i just cant throw out the facts. ( some people cannot allow themselves to accept the story in front of them and refuse to believe in the poss of evelution... no judgement from me... to each there own).... oh gosh way off topic... anyway back on track here, reason 1 the enjoyment of collecting and studdying. reason two... I made it a personal goal to have a booth at our local expo ( not a huge expo and certainly not gonna be a money maker).. just whant to slap hands with people who have the same interest at the same time as maybe paying for a years rodents. to me this would be somewhat of a graduating acheivment.. so i can get these stinky mofos out of my house for good lol (mice)....reason number three and the reason i post ( if not to keep this formum pumping) is to have nice bloodlines to use for a thing me and my car enthusiest friends call horse tradin... just ill give you this for two of those type of deal! is there a third part site or company that over sees trade? if not would someone like to take on a crazy prolly impossable task of building one. not a venture im brave enough for but would be neet none the less....... say all comunications and agreements go thru this site for puplic record and the mediator keeps a percentage or has a flat rate fee to keep the wheels turning, and moderates to ensure no one gets stiffed without every one else knowing about a bad traider...( like the boi only just for trades). Anyone? i would love to trade for feeders other pits and even maybe a few of the many types of tree monitors. ( cant help but like those haha) any way what is every ones take on that?.... the mediator would have to have to keep there rep on the line at all times in order to prove non bias wich could be tough ......and if someone were tho build such a thing the users and flow would follow! just something someone else prolly already thought of before i did, but to me is my idea lol..... last thing im going to leave that part about evelution in the post but i do not whant to have that to turn into an argument...get enough of that with people i deal with every day! oh and i love pits! ( that very last part was to keep this a pit post because i dont realy care to talk too much with frog or turtle guys....ya know!)

sorry about the spelling and gramer on the last and this post! that is still a combo of my phone being dumb and me not being able to spell to save my life hahha! true story though about the spelling its sad. anyways, no one wants to touch this?.....not even a "your dumb" or wouldnt work no way" or even a " its been done 50 times and not worked yet" id take a strait up "your crazy" even!.....or maybe... i just scratched your brain a little bit. and now you want to see if it could work.... ya know ive pondered on it for along time in my dealings and snake orders. still though trading just isnt reliable or cost effective unless you truelly know the person you trade with. im just not that lucky... and not to say that i dont appreciate beardies and geckos and some other common trends. but i just dont really want that stuff in MY collection. i dream of a library of pits that you can hold in your hands and see like say a southern locale bull and northern bull side by side. and of course in my web tiny little web the trends are all that surround me....so again i wish trade was easier nationally........ well sorry about the rambling. i realize the pits are all ether cooling off or just coming out. but this forum is not just about pictures....(seriously though, no complaints here. load em up! please)
i read this forum every night for a few minutes. a lot of times even really old posts. its my connection to the rest of the pit world and just part of my knightly reading. the debates on what is what or that isnt possible are my faves to read. and soooo since ive read all that interests me tonight, im gonna write a little and see what comes back!.....this of course the reason for the rambling.....at least ya had something good to read and entertain for a few!
