It its weird and its herp related, especially turtles, why…

do people keep asking me if I kind it? First the “Frogs of Christmas” Which I found, and sell for $17.00 S&H included) then “Frogs of Summer” $17.00 S&H included, which is on the way. Now (about 3 weeks ago, 4 e-mails on something called Turtle TV. (I posted it on HD, because I thought I found it; well now I have, seen it, have copies, so I know it exists. It’s a DVD as if a TV station was cast and run by turtles. 30 minutes of clips from the various shows. Spoofs of movies (Matrix) TV shows (The Turtle Bunch) Turtle basketball and NASCAR racing, and songs turtles performing songs like “8 eggs a week,” “I saw her basking there.” All hosted by Shecky Shellstein. So I got them to allow me to sell them to raise money for HerpDigest. You can only get them from me. At least until January 1st. Exclusive until the holidays. They are $15.00 each $2.00 shipping. First Class. Half of that money goes to keep HerpDigest alive. I no longer have any outside source of funds besides donations from readers and selling stuff like this. And I can’t afford to subsidize it by myself. Full story latter. Which means without it I can’t keep offering all the free pdf files I do. Like the report on Salmonella, Alligator snappers, atrazine’s effects on frogs. Turtle TV also has a short 5-minute version for $8.00 plus $2.00 S&H. of just movie shorts. “A Tribute to Turtle Classic Movies.” (Turtle, Turner, get it?) What can I say its silly, sophmoric, BUT DAMN FUNNY. (An Egyptian tortoise climbing up a building ala King Kong) (Though it’s not the Empire State Building. Don’t recognize it.) Interested in any of the above send a check made out to HerpArts and mails it to HerpArts c/o Allen Salzberg 67-87 Booth Street -5B, Forest Hills, NY 11375. I think people think I know how to get these weird tapes, because I am weird. (I live in NYC, and though I am a Yankee fan, grew up walking distance from the stadium, once the Red Sox beat them I was the only Yankee fan I knew who said, “If they beat us, they better win the World Series. Everyone else wanted them to die. Go figure.) You can also use PayPal to order any of the tapes, HerpDigest’s account number is https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=asalzberg%40herpdigest.org or send HerpArts your credit card number, expiration date, shipping and billing address via email to asalzberg@… or fax them to 1-718-275-3307. (Its my personal fax no one else will see it.) And Happy Halloween. And oh yes, Vote. I’m voting for Pat Paulson. I don’t care if he’s dead.
