it has been a while guys. my youtube videos continue to get hits. i still read up on scorpions in my spare time (what little i have), but as I mentioned before my absence, I am currently attending law school, specializing in international law, and it is not cheap to say the least. for the first time in 14+ years I have no inverts in my house.
this first year of law school was hell, the most work i have ever had to put in to any one thing. the good news is i have made many more international connections, and (hopefully) will be able to go to some international rep/invert conventions this summer.
i had to sell every specimen/pet i owned to afford this first year. but ultimately i think it is worth it. my new "hobby" is going to be focusing on the hobby of arachnoculture as a whole. i've got a nice video camera and enough money saved up to visit a bunch of conventions or breeding facilities or natural locales. the goal ultimately being to shine a positive light on our either legged friends. i still cant believe i free handled A. androctonus, in some of my pics and videos... that probably will not be repeated.
if i missed a message from you, or did not respond, it was nothing personal. in early may i should be back %100 as far as information giving goes.
right now i'm trying to take a survey of who is still here that remembers me, and what they would like to see me try and get on camera. right now im really considering a month long trip to brazil to try and film scorpions in their natural habitats, and attend the hamm convention over the summer. any suggestions are welcome.
feels good to post on here again. i see a lot of new faces. hopefully some of the old posters are still around.
