this is a good thread, i enjoy reading peeps experinces.
well here mine.
in 1991 i was in the Army stationed in ft drum, ny. i took this girl to a movie called " the silence of the lambs" ( i know ...what a movie watch on a date) anyways if u remember, the killer has a cool terarium and collect exotics bugs. later on i went to a pet shop and got me a diff bug, a rose hair, i had to sneak it in at the Army barracks, i had to hide it when we have our daily room inspection by our company first sergeant , i was getting out in a few months anyway so i didnt care. i remeber at the time i was leaving, i have all my stuff all pack up in my tiny car and my T in his critter cage in the front seat with me. left NY, drove to Canada, cross Michigan, then to St Louis.
remember this is 1991 at that time the only available species is either a rose hair or a pink toe, at least that what i saw they have. internet wasnt born yet and theres no way i could find a cool species that i like, but i love my rose hair. i even remember saying "oh cool this one has a cute tiny hooks in the front leg" well u guess it , he is a he. well i still get to enjoy Harry for 6 months or so, then he died. then i got busy in college and all, then about the first week of this month, i went to a reptile store to get a pair of house geckos, i saw a cobalt blue and ended up buying it...i got addicted again , the bug bit, now i have 18 T's...i need to stop. i realized that i have forgoten how cool T's are.
