Looking for White Dragons! Grail includes the White Secret Keeper!
If you have raised kids (or been one), and gone through
the pet syndrome, including toilet flush burials for dead
goldfish, the story below will have you laughing out
LOUD!Overview: I had to take my son’s lizard to the vet.
Here’s what happened:
Just after dinner one night, my son came up to tell me
there was “something wrong” with one of the two
lizards he holds prisoner in his room.“He’s just lying there looking sick,” he told me. “I’m
serious, Dad. Can you help?”I put my best lizard-healer expression on my face and
followed him into his bedroom. One of the little lizards
was indeed lying on his back, looking stressed. I
immediately knew what to do.“Honey,” I called, “come look at the lizard!”
“Oh, my gosh!” my wife exclaimed. “She’s having
babies.”“What?” my son demanded. “But their names are
Bert and Ernie, Mom!”I was equally outraged.
“Hey, how can that be? I thought we said we didn’t
want them to reproduce,” I said accusingly to my wife.“Well, what do you want me to do, post a sign in their
cage?” she inquired (I think she actually said this
sarcastically! )“No, but you were supposed to get two boys!” I
reminded her, (in my most loving, calm, sweet
voice, while gritting my teeth).“Yeah, Bert and Ernie!” my son agreed.
“Well, it’s just a little hard to tell on some guys, you
know,” she informed me (Again with the sarcasm!).By now the rest of the family had gathered to see
what was going on. I shrugged, deciding to make
the best of it.“Kids, this is going to be a wondrous experience,”
I announced. “We’re about to witness the miracle
of birth.”“Oh, gross!” they shrieked
“Well, isn’t THAT just great? What are we going to do
with a litter of tiny little lizard babies?” my wife wanted
to know.We peered at the patient. Afte r much struggling, what
looked like a tiny foot would appear briefly, vanishing
a scant second later.“We don’t appear to be making much progress,” I
noted.“It’s breech,” my wife whispered, horrified.
“Do something, Dad!” my son urged.
“Okay, okay.” Squeamishly, I reached in and grabbed
the foot when it next appeared, giving it a gentle tug.
It disappeared. I tried several more times with the
same results.“Should I call 911?” my eldest daughter wanted to know.
“Maybe they could talk us through the trauma.” (You
see a pattern here with the females in my house?)“Let’s get Ernie to the vet,” I said grimly. We drove to
the vet with my son holding the cage in his lap.“Breathe, Ernie, breathe,” he urged.
“I don’t think lizards do Lamaze,” his mother noted to
him. (Women can be so cruel to their own young. I
mean what she does to me is one thing, but this boy
is of her womb, for G~ d’s sa ke .).The vet took Ernie back to the examining room and
peered at the little animal through a magnifying glass.“What do you think, Doc, a C-section?” I suggested
scientifically.“Oh, very interesting, ” he murmured. “Mr. and Mrs.
Cameron, may I speak to you privately for a moment?”I gulped, nodding for my son to step outside.
“Is Ernie going to be okay?” my wife asked.
“Oh, perfectly,” the vet assured us. “This lizard is not
in labor. In fact, that isn’t EVER going to happen. . .
Ernie is a boy. You see, Ernie is a young male. And
occasionally, as they come into maturity, like most
male species, they um . . um . . . masturbate. Just
the way he did, lying on his back.” He blushed,
glancing at my wife.We were silent, absorbing this.
“So, Ernie’s just . just . . .. excited,” my wife offered.
“Exactly,” the vet replied , relieved that we understood.
More silence. Then my vicious, cr uel wi fe started to
giggle. And giggle. And then even laugh loudly.“What’s so funny?” I demanded, knowing, but not
believing that the woman I married would commit
the upcoming affront to my flawless manliness.Tears were now running down her face. “It’s just .that . .
I’m picturing you pulling on its .. . . its. . . teeny little . . “
She gasped for more air to bellow in laughter once
more.“That’s enough,” I warned. We thanked the vet and
hurriedly bundled the lizard and our son back into
the car.. He was glad everything was going to be okay.“I know Ernie’s really thankful for what you did, Dad,”
he told me.“Oh, you have NO idea,” my wife agreed, collapsing
with laughter.Two lizards: $140.
One cage: $50.
Trip to the vet: $30.
Memory of your husband pulling on a lizard’s winkie:
Priceless!
Moral of the story: Pay attention in biology class.
Lizards lay eggs!
My mother of all people sent me this! LMAO

I watched this auction from the word go. I was shocked that it did not meet the reserve. Oh well. If I had that kind of money to spend on a Windstone I would ask Melody to do a personal one of a kind SK commission. I think she would probably do it! LOL Anyway I would love a Black Grand but with that kind of price I think I will have to cash in my 401K at 68 and I am only 26! lol

I guess I was glad that I stopped when I did. I am looking for black unicorns but I am in no rush to get them. Plus there will be better things to come I’m sure of that! So future refrence…how much would a young Black Uni go for????

Ok well I looked at this auction and I have e-mailed the seller and she has gotten back to me on two occasions. I am the high bidder as of right now….we’ll have to wait and see how it goes……
I hope I get it…I have wanted the black unicorn set for years now. I dont know why I did not get them when they first came out! π He will be my first one *if I get him * πLooking for White Dragons! Grail includes the White Secret Keeper!
Frozen a Sony Cyber shot. Or get something that has 7 mega pixels or more. That will give you clearer pictures, the higher the mega pixels. I use a Cannon 40D but that is a very expensive camera. The flat truth is that in cameras you are mainly paying for the brand name, and ease of use with the software. If you want simple go with a Kodak Easy Share or a Sony. I have had and used both and they are like Cameras and photo editing software for dumbies! lol * not saying your dumb by any means* π They are just really easy to use. Plus with the software you dont have to compress any files or re size unless your sending a bunch of files. Well there you go my 2 cents! LMAO π I think I’m done. Hope that helps! P.S. My room mate is a photographer so if you have any detailed questions about cameras she is the one to ask. But as far as the software….now that’s my department! π

*crosses fingers* π Here’s to hoping!

i DONT CARE ABOUT HOW MUCH PAINT IT TAKES……OR FOR THAT MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES! I am just in love with them and I wish I could get my hands on one…..that is what I would like to re-start my collection with! Gosh if I could get a PYO Secret Keeper…………The days I would spend just plotting out the paint idea! It would take me days of coloring on paper before I started with the paint!

Melody,
Thank you for getting back to me. i know it will take time to do. Thank you for at least considering it! π I think we would all be so thrilled if the next PYO is a Keeper Dragon. He is so serene and calm looking. Not sad at all. While I am on here have you done him in gold or Ruby? Just wondering…… π
P.S.
NO RUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
I know you will get to it in time. π
thank you for bringing these dragons into my life. they make me smile every time I look at them! πLooking for White Dragons! Grail includes the White Secret Keeper!
