Why do you keep them?

[Garter_Gertie]

Wayne, I'm terrified o'them BOTH. They're ugly and scary to me. And those RATTLE SNAKE PICTURES!!!!! I can't look at them. Makes my skin crawl.

Oktay. I'm a woosie. SOMEBODY has to fill that role here, may as well be me!

You and Lori just keep on thinkin' you know what's gonna happen. I suggest both of you NOT hold your breath. People in h&!! will get ice cream cones before *I* EVER have snakes like THOSE!

[Lori P]

(Madly saving these messages for later) LOLOL!!

You know what, Gertie, we'll still accept you for your love of dear Winnie and your soon to be hoggy. But we may feel the uncanny need to torment you from time to time.

[Garter_Gertie]

Yeah. I'm SURE! You're that way! Forget the archives. It ain't gonna happen. YOU'LL see!

[infernalis]

Gertie, I'll need your home address, I found this cute little guy in my yard, and I would like it if you could give him a loving home. Thank you.

[Garter_Gertie]

NOT FUNNY YOU BOZO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I SCREAMED MY HEAD OFF AND SCARED PICKLES AND MAYO - AND ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For-get-it!!!!!!! I HATE those fanged things. (shudder)

Wayne, I don't get mad, I get even. If I EVER find out your weak spot - spiders, water, flying, WHATEVER - I shall seek my revenge.

WHAT AN EFFIN' HORRIBLE CREATURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(The snake. Not you, dear Dekay.)

[Lori P]

(Snickering and snorting) Now Wayne, that was plain mean. (Chuckle) You really should be ashamed for tormenting Gertie so. (Chortle snort) It's NOT FUNNY. (Falling off chair in mirth)

You rotten thing, Lori!

[anji1971]

Gertie, you really should never say "never".
Lori was as terrified of spiders as you are about these snakes, and now she has a tarantula. Who'd of thunk it??

[Garter_Gertie]

Bless my stars and garters! TARANTULA?! NO WAY.

Anji, she's nuts. Nutz, nutz, nutz! Never, never, never, NEVER. N-e-v-e-r. Never.

[Lori P]

LOLOL.... here's the thread about my fuzzy spider, to give you an idea of how it all came about!! I never planned to have a tarantula... but fate has a wicked sense of humor!!!
