Very Kewl and interesting thread.

Age: 50

Occupation: Hospitality

College: University of MD

Misc:

I spend most of my time in the background on this board but have really enjoyed the repartee and football discussion that exists amongst ya'll.

I currently live in the Central Coast, Cali but spent quite a few years in the MD area during my younger years and my love of the skins was handed down to me from my Pops and Grandpops.

Dad was in the Foreign Service and I was adopted when he was on a tour in South Korea. That makes me an AmerAsian, football nut... I am also female. Just helping the minority contingent of the board...:D

Never married, but was asked a time or two...No kids, except 2 furry ones named Zeke and Bhudda.

I have traveled extensively and lived in Thailand from 75-79. If you know your history, that was an 'interesting' time to live in SE Asia... Also spent about 10 years in LA and about 8 years in South Florida. I am very much a sun and water person.

Real name: Harm

Age: 36

Job: Currently out of work, unfortunately.

Family: Single

University: MPhil in History (specialty Ancient History/Classics), one assignmet short of getting my teaching degree (which over here is another MA degree), both at Leiden University (the Netherlands). Started out studying Civil Engineering. Spent in year at Elizabethtown College (PA), and one semester at University of Hawaii (Manoa).

History: Started out at MouthOff, moved to KFFL, from there to here. Been posting together with some for 15 years now, or so.

Got hooked on Eagles in when attending Elizabethtown College (in part because two friend were Redskins and Steelers fans). Fandom for the Flyers dates from the same time, though Eric Lindros got me to appreciate hockey through the 1992 Winter Olympics. Not much of a baseball and basketball fan (chosen teams Toronto (dates to what they showed over here from the World Series), and Pacers (since Rik Smits played for them). Never been to an Eagles game, have been to a Flyers game (saw the Legion of Doom live), and a Blue Jays game when I spent a month in Toronto.

Did see Warner play in NFL Europe, and quite probably Akers as well.

If I can afford it, I will set my alarm for the Eagles (or stay awake) for night games.

Considering my geographical background, I am one of the most liberal posters around, was already so at KFFL, definitely the case here...

Interesting? Do you keep or breed any other snakes?


I have to say, if I could afford them, and there was a way to keep them safely, I would love to keep a Gaboon viper (I love the look of the head, and especially the colouring), King cobra (again, love the look of their head/hood) or Bushmaster (colouring and pattern)... The Mangrove cat snake is a favourite of mine as well.

For non-venomous, somehow I am fascinated by the Emerald tree boa, or its python equivalent, the Green tree python...


Not too far from my home there is a reptile zoo, and the collection he has (or had, some snakes might have died) is impressive - and it consists completely of captured snakes (illegal imports), taken from junkies or intercepted at Rotterdam harbour or Schiphol airport. When I visited, he had numerous species of cobra (though no longer a King cobra), three different mamba species (black, and one of the greens), as well as various pitvipers (including rattlers)... since it was a private group tour, when somebody asked how these snakes fed, he let one of the cobras as well as the green mamba do a demonstration... especially the mamba was impressive (both in quickness of the strike, as well as instantaneous effect of the venom).

Real Name: Carlos Cortes

Age: 38

Location: Parma Heights, near Cleveland Ohio

KFFL Moniker: Los Eaglez (Byrdfan, Eagle Los). Philly family know me for my nickname PeeWee. Been posting since Staley was around.

Family: Married on August 11, 2012 (second time). Wife Jennifer Marie and sons Caiden Carlos (10) and Caleb Carlos (8 months) Still blessed with two healthy parents John and Norma. Brother Hector and two sisters Melissa and Omyra.

Occupation: Been doing mostly kitchens and bathrooms for almost 20 years as a tile setter.

Other: Fell in love with this team in the early 90s while living in Heightstown New Jersey. Why? I couldn't stand the Dallas Cowboys and we had a tough defense. Been waiting a while for that stout defense. Not tackling at the pro level is totally unacceptable to me.

Our secondary is full of guys with manginas. From Allen to Williams we have some straight up pansies out there even though Williams thinks he's tough and good for whatever reason.

Man amongst boys my friend. I thought I was a badass hunting 300lbs hogs, venomous snakes are a no-go for me. Not scared, but I have a fundamental problem with anything that cant be reasonably put down with a bullet. Saw a 7 foot all black king snake in Afghanistan and realized trying shoot one before if bites your face off is nearly impossible.

I own a 7ft red tail boa. Shes the only non ball python i have. Laws here in NJ are different. You cannot own HOTS aka venomous snakes here but in PA im damn sure you can. I can pretty much get my hands on any kind of snake you want. Emerald Tree Boas are beautiful. And so are the others you mentioned. The main reason i do not keep hots is because of my kids. If they got bit messing around in my snake room i dont know what id do. I know a shit ton of breeders across the united states and can help ya get anything you would like at really good prices. If you have any questions o need any help with anything just say so....ill shoot ya my cell number and give ya all the info ya need.

Manny! Good to see you here, my fellow 54-year-old! Been a while.

There is a thread on the KFFL Eagles Forum called "ok so where did everyone go" that would have directed you here. :-)
