CP, is that dog of yours a yellow cur? I can't see the head on him much but the body sure looks like it. I had one when I was a kid and it was the best all around hunting dog, keeping weasels out...

I'd try it. I didn't think sharp cheddar would go well alongside an apple pie I tried it.

This is Swiss Chard. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it's like spinach would be in it's wildest fantasies. Huge, gorgeous, easy to grow, and laughs at hot weather.

Swiss chard is...

I'm very sorry for your loss. Our critters are such fun and such a comfort, and it's terrible to lose one.

Minnie the Mean Snake looks as if she's getting ready to lay a clutch within the next few days.

Minnie carries one copy of the recessive gene for piebald and she is bred to a piebald, so...

It's how we try to trick the Greens into doing it so that we can sit on our butts and sip margaritas.

I saw that already, when you took credit for my ban!

Not!

Was not!

Yeah, after I had already banned her. :grin:

The bright white would be a disadvantage in the wild, but adult wild albinos and other white snakes have been caught. This "morph" or form is not an albino, it's the homozygous expression of a...

I agree.

Abusing the flag reminds me of book burners and the like. It's as distasteful as heck, but it's a simple and clear way for the person doing it to tell others way more about himself...

The new kids:

First up, Bella, a green pastel. This is an uncommon ball python, not many of them out there yet. As you can see, green pastels are brown.

Next up is a Russo,...

I wish that were so, but I think we're nowhere near as low as it can go. How much longer is it going to be until the inconvenient people--mentally handicapped children and adults, the physically...

This is a pic of one of Miss Maenad's eggs. I'm candling them, using an LED light to illuminate the structures so that I can determine if the eggs are healthy or not.

The strong network...

It will take about 2 months for the eggs to hatch, plus 2-3 days for the umbilical cord to separate from the baby so they will actually crawl out of the hole that either they or I will cut in each...

This is Bella, and she will be arriving sometime next week. She's what is called a green pastel, which is a dark brown snake.

4/27/13. Clutch of eight eggs and no slugs from Miss Maenad. Mom and clutch are doing fine.

I could have used some of that global warming this winter. Where the heck does it hide when I'm trudging out to shovel snow.

I hate living in town and having to shovel snow. They get all huffy...

Why do we need helium stores for balloons? Congress generates enough hot air to float a bazillion of them.

Yeah, and it's an ancient cure for lice, fleas, etc, as well as a not-so-ancient way to tan leather.

Urine, if left to sit long enough, is "turned" by the bacteria which live in it. It becomes...

Adrift amened one post, not condoning the user's behavior but because something she said kinda agreed with something he thinks.

There is no need to try to convince him that he did something wrong....

It's a very simple device, and people were capable of making it long before they apparantly did.

We have been raised in a world with abundant metals. But it was only in the last few hundred years...

Scrub board was invented in the 1700s. Washing clothes frequently was invented some time afterward.

Rocks served the same function as washboards in many areas and in some places people still wash...

Yes, Jorge. He never stops using any subject at hand to push those views. In that behavior he reminds me of how you go about busily trashing your fellow Christians for not agreeing with you upon a...

I wouldn't put him as the world's top thinker, as he's not saying much that others didn't hypothesize and research.

He's good at putting scientific concepts into terms that most laymen can grasp...

:ahem:

Hey! I resent that!

:shrug:

If that were the case then I'd expect that there would be a whole lot more dead people.

I'm an admin, there's several of us.

I don't care what you quote as long as it conforms to our general site rules. But since this is JPH's neck of the woods, I'd run it by him in PM. I can't...

Yeah. Whatever.

She wasn't banned for disagreeing with anyone or for ranting, she was banned for breaking our site rules regarding threats toward other members and profanity on the board and in...

Nope. The problem with these legless lizards is that they can control when they lay their eggs to some extent. It's a survival skill that makes a great deal of sense--if things are tough right now...

We'll put up with a lot here, particularly for a Christian site, many of which will ban for pretty trivial reasons.

There is crap which we will not put up with. Profanity laced PM tirades...

*yawn*

The quality of trolls in this place has seriouly declined.

My newest one, little Cissy, who is looking evil in this pic, because she's deciding whether or not to bite me.

Teh internet. Where martyrdom comes cheaply and easily.

Meh.

According to the link, both bishops have been released but their driver, a deacon, was killed when they were kidnapped.

I'm going to guess that it probably is true. There are a few people who are too vile for polite words, although I can think of some that would get me banned that would go a long way toward...

What type of merchandise were you planning to sell?

I hear it all the time too, and then I tell the staff to turn the radio off and get the long faces and groans.

I want all of y'all, black and white, to haul butt off of my ancestoral Native American lands, including the part of me that's white too as soon as I can figure out how to do that without any ouch or...

Based on a double negative being a positive..... :shrug: I'm not 100% certain, but it's probably a compliment, along the lines of the saying "The curse of the base-born is high praise indeed."

You're darn right I'm worthless.....which means I should be entitled to food stamps or government cheese or something.

I think I'm going to take this opportunity to apologize to all of the oppressed eggs and sperm that didn't get to be made into a human being because I was conceived.

I feel so freaking guilty that...

Free him?

I can't get rid of him. His uncle tao threw him in the dumpster. The garbage man knocked on the door the next morning and handed him back.

If any of y'all run into some dumbasses who want to know what it's like to be oppressed, tell them to bring some shovels and a lawn mower over to my place and I'll teach them with a quickness.

I'm sorry to hear that. They might have come from weak stock, or they might have been infected with worms or some other problem. Usually when it's multiple rats in the same litter it is a problem...

The snakes eat rats. I keep both pet and feeder rats.

Most of my snakes eat these--Natal rats, or African soft furred rats. They're a different breed than the Norway rat, and mean little @%&*$%...

And now for something different:

Dwarf rats which popped up out of a litter that was born here recently. The three of these are right around the same size as a normal rat when it's eyes beging to...

If it were something like being on God's side, such as supporting His hypothetical favorite baseball team or studio wrestler, yeah, there would be no logical necessity.

What is being discussed...
