Quote: Did January1may miss the boat here? Not sure what you're implying (except to the effect that I missed out on anything interesting in the first group which is true I guess). Shipping to Russia takes a while, and in any case I hadn't checked my mailbox in weeks so for all I know it already arrived and I just hadn't found out yet.

@Ty2020b Quote: I have several "pet" scorpions Are those white things babies on the one's back? Really cool looking. I'd be paranoid that they would get out of their enclosure.

Quote: Not sure what you're implying Just didn't see you respond to the 15th winning draw a few days ago. Glad you're OK. I didn't see you post and missed chafemasterj posting that you responded by PM I suppose. Didn't see you post and took another closer look and found his now. http://goccf.com/t/395120&whichpage=17#3563297 Congrats!

Quote: Are those white things babies on the one's back? Really cool looking. Yes they are! This was a couple years ago. Took her almost 3 days to birth 14 babies (lower count for scorpions). When the baby is birthed the mother holds with her hind legs until it is strong enough to climb to her back where they live for the first 1-2 weeks. As I mentioned, it's a slow process, each baby taking about an hour to breach and move to her back. Then a break period for mom and then on to the next. Couple more images on this off topic. The mother, who sadly passed last year at the age of around 6-7, was a voracious eater during her pregnancy. Also pictured is a baby at 2 weeks.

Ty,
Ok that's impressive. I may have to forgive your calling Bison's Buffalo.

I finally managed to get a photo graph of the State Counterstamped cent coins I got from chafemasterj in this contest. Keyboarding and photographing is hard at the moment due to my shoulder surgery and limited mobility so, just samples for now.

Glad you're starting to get around Dearborn. Healing sucks when you're older.

Thanks Justin, getting old just plain sucks, having to add healing to it makes it a challenge. (talk about getting old, I just put together the long running topic of counterstamped coins, this contest topic and you are one in the same..)

I did a boo-boo and accidentally sent Dearborn a set of 49 cents. Unless Montana seceded without my knowledge there's a problem.  It's resolved. Keep an eye out in your mailbox.

Hi chafemasterj, sorry about the paradoia in my email to you . Called you chef at that time. Just wanted to say I have received your package according to roomies, but I am not at home until early this week. Will get some picks up when I get home. Thanks for the great contest and your generosity!

My cents have arrived and I'm super-excited about these counterstamps and proofs. Thx again @chafe!
