Well heck, I guess if I am getting called out, I'll stop lurking. I usually keep a pretty low profile and only chime in on occasion. As many of the other participants here in Frognet land, exotics and critters have always provided fascination from a childhood age. I have been a member of frognet for about a year and have been keeping larger varieties of Tincs and some Azureus for a couple of years. I'm 34 years old (not the only thing in common with John, I can appreciate his "special views/expressions") originally from New Joizey about 10 mins from the "city" and moved to Columbus, OH for Ohio State (still here and biggest Buckeye Fan). I got a BS from OSU in Wildlife Mang. from the School of Natural Resources, with the intention of going the college of Vet Med. Unfortunately, I did not get in on my first attempt and decided to join the millions in Corporate America.

I have lived above a Vet clinic now for 12 years, been involved with the aquarium industry for almost 20 years and keep a healthy variety of critters currently other than frogs (Red Lored Amazon, Blue Tongue Skink, Lilac Pt Siamese, Queen Trigger in 135 gal aquarium, various Tarantulas) Overall, big fan of travel, music (cd's are an addiction) miniature orchids, digital photog, and ice cold Killian's and of course frogs. Overall, this list has been an amazing learning experience, the intelligence and commitment of many of you has been inspiring and humbling....
