Hey we should organize a TFP DB9 Group Buy! Count me in since I actually "need" one

Othewise, for a reasonable sum under about $50 I keep asking for bottles of specialty olive oils. Can't have enough of the stuff and I use it at least once a day. A nice bottle of wine is also something I enjoy and consume.

I need socks, too.


Jet,
about your turtle wish...I have to recommend a red eared slider. We got our Franklin about 7 years ago when he was ~3 inches front to back. Now he's almost 12" front to back...very aggressive, very healthy. I've said it before, if he was big enough I think he'd eat our whole family. Last month after some early dormancy (he goes into slow mode by mid Fall and eats very little until Spring) I found an egg in his tank/terrarium. So after all these years, now we know Franklin is really Franklina. The egg had no chance of hatching or even being fertile since Franklina has not been near another turtle since we pulled her out of her tank with her siblings, so I took it out and opened it and sure as hell, it was a real egg; almost ~2 inches long and about 1" dia.
