Reptile shows used to be more of a meeting. A chance to catch up on friends, and trade stories of our favorite herp moments. Now they are a chance for people to show off what fancy new morph they have and you don't. It's a chance to feel better about your place in life based on how much better you are than anyone else.

This has done one great thing though. It has got me back into the heart of what started my interest in herps, field herping. Field herping is still about stories, friends, a nice campfire, and your choice of coffee or beer.
