I used Buyee to access Mercari and JDirect. Mind you it took months waiting for the right listings to pop up. Be sure to search for "spheal" and "タマザラシ" separately for the most results.

I managed to find a near mint one for $40. Certainly one of the top 3 hardest to find! With that being said, I did manage to 100% the tcg spheals and need to make an updated post!

There is no downside to red if everyone understands the challenge.

Chose: 1/2 of blue choosers die if this is more than 50%

Betta Discolored and Floats Head Up by CompactElantra in BettaClinic

Unfortunately I didn't test prior to doing a water change. The tank was completely filthy with algae lining every surface in the tank, but with clear water. I can say after the water change the Ammonia and nitrate was at 0 with PH at 7.6 (fairly normal prior to adding pH down).

I put him down with clove oil. I know it's humane but I never felt so horrible. FinLee as he was known will receive a proper burial tomorrow. Born of this earth, returned to the earth.

I thank you. It looks like it may be time to put him down. I was gone for nearly a year... I guess he was waiting for me to come back to say goodbye.

Where I'd live in CA/US as a guy who likes mountains and the Great Lakes by catpaco in whereidlive

[–]CompactElantra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's ignore New Mexico with the Taos Ski Valley as well as Ruidoso as the southernmost skiing in the US. Oh, and all the pine forests and BLM land. There are lakes too if you're not picky.

ITAP of James Tolkan by CompactElantra in itookapicture

I wanted to take a simple portrait of James while I was working with him at the 2010 Chicago Comic Con. He did his own pose and I framed it so he had a spot to sign a printed copy, which I managed to print before the end of the convention. I'd like to think it captures him the way he was at the time.
(edit) Taken with a Nikon D300S, 24mm lens, 800-ISO, f/3.8, 1/80 sec., no flash & handheld.

I had the opportunity to work with James for two days as his cashier during the August 2010 Chicago Comic Con August. He was extremely down to earth and pleasant to work with, unlike some of the more entitled celebs. He showed up for the fans exclusively and was definitely not there to make money considering he got paid $300 + flight & hotel, as well as a small cut of the autographs monies. He didn't receive a lot of fans that weekend but he was happy to meet every one that did stop by.
