I just made a whole thread about him but here's a sneak peak

My lab will start swatting me with her paw if I am not up to feed her breakfast by 8. She will go right back to bed and sleep until dinner time afterwards though.

Erin if they do stain you can hit them quick with some kilz and it will make them nice and white again.Use a sponge brush and put it on very lightly to make it blend naturally. If they are white of course.
I have had to use that trick before for a client who didn't want auditors to know that they had an HVAC leak in the data center days before the audit. It wasn't a ton of water leaking but covering up the evidence was easier than answering the questions or getting a comment.

Kerryann said:My husband is out rewiring the garage with 220 volt stuff. I guess he needs it to run the new welder. I am worried he is going to electrocute himself.He said he needed to run a new service?? I have no idea what that means except it was huge wire and these huge box things which makes me think it's a lot of power if he gets zapped. ugh..
Thalatte said:Well its fine as long as he shut off the breakers in the area he is working.
I think running a new service means he has to set up an new breaker?

No pictures?
Service is the main feed, where a building's electrical system is tied to the source.

sibi said:Well guys, that should teach us gals to leave the big stuff to our hubbies especially if the know what they've doing even if we don't. That's nice that you have a hubby that can do electrical stuff.
Everyone....i have an announcement: Baby Runt weighed in at 12 oz today!!!!!! He's 4 oz shy of one pound. When he Reaches one pound, we'll have a TFO PARTY.

So, because I'm so barn sour, I didn't get around to going to the store until today. I now have a wonderfully smelling house (pound cake in the oven and almost done), but no ice cream or strawberries.![]()
sibi said:Yes I am, a d for good reason. This baby is really not a baby. He's 3 years old going on 4. He definitely has MBD it with calcium supplements and good Florida sunshine, his plastron is hardening. His growth is steady and I only see positive things for his future.
Oh Yvonne, I wish I were there. I don't need strawberries and Ice cream to eat pound cakeYou can seal it up and put it in the freezer until you can get out to get your ice cream and strawberries. Just a thought.

Eat some pound cake tonight and enjoy it.Then get some strawberries and ice cream tomorrow and enjoy that too. If you have crushed pineapple you could mix pineapple and brown sugar to make a topping.
No, no...she must freeze it. Than, that will give me enough time to fly over to Cally so that I can help her eat the cake

pdrobber said:Hello everyone!!!!
I went to the Long Island reptile show today...one table had "$100 any tortoise" they had a young redfoot, two female Russians, & two different species hingebacks. Other tables had $50 erosa hingebacks and there was a Speck's for $90 at another table. Also had baby stars for $1500, a sub adult Leopard for $400 and more Russians, Redfoots and Pancakes for about $150. There looked to be an Aldabra in a bin on the floor by one of the tables but no price listed, maybe it was just there to show off. Surprisingly, I'm not upset that I didn't get a tortoise today.
I was really interested in the female tomato frogs. They had great coloration. I'm kicking myself for not picking one up for $50. Everyone that walked past them said something like "I haven't seen tomatos that red in years." ::Kicking myself again::
My simpleton non reptile savvy dad was interested in the $10 cane/marine toadsHe said "you get one, I'll get one." Could have been a fun little guy to have too.
Anyone know any members of the NYTTS? I overheard two men talking about tortoises then looked and thought I recognized them. Did some research when I got home and it was Matt Hybel and some others. Looks like he had success with Burmese browns. Wish I would have said hello.
