    hello..

    So.. I've been posting somewhat a lot for only the week I've been active. So.. quick introduction! I'm you're semi regular Guy.. I slacked off a lot during high-school but ending up taking classes such as physics And pre-cal my senior year and finishing in the top 20 of my class. felt good. I'm newly out of college, had to drop out Because of financial issues, and the fact I got tired of nearly dying. Lol. I attended Le Cordon Bleu and got the opportunity to work with professional chefs. And on a last note I grew up the "older brother" both of my younger brothers have autism and through a parents divorce I kept them together. (6 long years...) I've been through a lot over my years but I finally got a dead end job which supports my love for snakes.

    Now to the reptile aspect..

    I've always loved reptiles, the first pet I asked for was a Eastern Diamond Back. (I really did...Lmao) but I got my Love for constricting snakes another way.. during a show when I was 11 I got to hold a 15 Burmese python who wrapped around me and set her head on my shoulder like she was a bird, and I just fell in love. When I was 14 I got to hold my first ball python, a normal little Guy, sadly at a local pet store and no way to take him home I was left wondering, but on the lighter side it got me a position to help take care of reptiles, and for 5 years I helped volunteer in my spare time learning all I could. But as everyone knows even with all the time in the world, you'll never learn it all. And not knowing finally got.me to join the forums. I "lurked" for a year learning without being a member till my head burst Because of a R.I.!!

    It's been a long hello. But I Love to let as much be known. I respect everyone's opinion, and want to learn as much as I can through here to make the life of my current snakes and my future see the best I possibly can. So...hello!

    And a last note! Besides loving venomous snakes... (bad addiction....) the girl my heart fell for loves reptiles as much as I do! How many of us really get that lucky.

    Sorry it was so long guys and gals!
