hey guys !
as planned onionboy and i went to the white plains show today.
armed with almost three hundred RR flyers to distribute to the less fortunate (those that still don't know about RR ! ), and ready to meet up with jas and phil at phil's buddy's table there. crappy northeast weather for driving ( but perfect for pairing up your balls ! ) may have made for decent attendance as you really couldn't get into the grove for any autumn bocce-ball with all the chilly muckyness goin' on.
met up with phil at the black rock table and who's phil hangin' with but mr 8 ball himself, adam wysocki. i had never met adam, so that was a bonus. jas had to rotate the air in his tires so he couldn't make the show. phil really couldn't believe that jas didn't make it 'cause he's always been so reliable in the past, but the air-rotation emergency clearly took precedence (maybe he showed up later). while there it was easy to appreciate the quality of critter that phil brings to the table, so to speak. his animals were impeccable, and impeccably presented. real nice stuff, and phil is as great a dude in person as he is on the boards. here's a shot for E-pig, 'cause he asked.
that's onionboy with the st louis hat, phil on the right, adam standing off to the left, and phil's friend seated on the left.(sorry phil, didn't catch your bud's name).note the pile of RR flyers on the right on the table, thanx phil !

ozzyboids was present, had some killer stuff, and was also willing to distribute RR flyers for us. thanx ozzy ! lots of you think there's nothing to his orange dreams, but man they sure look great in person, and they sure do light up a spider, as seen here:

sadly my photo taking skills have deteriorated since i can't see squat anymore ! (all down hill after forty...)but i'm still willing to torture you with this crappy shot of ozzy's mojave blast:

all in all was a pretty good show, lots of balls, even saw a pretty nice sub-adult ackie at komodo's table, think it was a red...got some pics of keith's tribal (earth's exotics) which were too abysmal to post. i really might NEED glasses soon !
anyway that's all i got.
nice meeting phil, wish jas and V would've made this one, but january will be here soon enough ! see you guys then.

Sounds like you and The Onion had a good day. Wish I could have made it but Ill catch the next one.

Thats a nice lookin' spider. I dont know much about the orange dreams but if thats what they do to spiders they are ok in my book.

Even saw an ackie. Cool. Dont seem them too often at White Plains. Any other monitor action? I know Komodo. I get rodents from them whenever I attend a show. Got my insects there last time, too. Good guys. I didnt know they did anything with monitors.

Good work with the flyers, Cap'n :yessir:

the problem is i did take multiple shots...all sucked !
child labor was all i had left once the RR bikini team bailed.
the show promoter bruce lowder let me put a pile on his main desk at the front.
he was real cool about it. just hope it gets results.
