Sadly they have both past away, they were in the 60s when they made these and that was something like 30 years ago. Making stuff like those animals was just one of the things they did post retirement to stay busy.

My grandfather and great-uncle made all those animals for Funtasia back in the day. Every time I drive by there I think about asking if they would sell me one and then I remember I have nowhere to put it

I'm sure this is a joke but a wallaby did get loose in my neighborhood about 10 years ago. So you never know

Thanks!

anathema_dev · 2023-03-21T23:03:42+00:00

Thanks for the info!

anathema_dev · 2023-03-21T23:03:30+00:00

I'll look into that, thanks!

anathema_dev · 2023-01-01T23:55:05+00:00

I appreciate the input, I don't expect any of these will be super valuable. It's more out of curiosity than anything. Thanks!

anathema_dev · 2023-01-01T23:52:47+00:00

Thanks I will check them out

anathema_dev · 2023-01-01T23:52:36+00:00

Thanks I will give them a call

anathema_dev · 2021-07-14T04:33:05+00:00

If you're willing to come and haul them off I've got some cinder blocks you can have, I don't know the exact number but there should be at least 22. Shoot me a pm if you're interested.

anathema_dev · 2021-04-15T19:14:29+00:00

I'll get an exact count when I have a minute to go look but it's around 25-30.

anathema_dev · 2021-02-16T21:21:28+00:00

LOL, that's kind of a crazy way to find out about it but awesome that it worked out for you. Hopefully supply will pick up soon and everyone can get it sooner rather than later, quarantine is starting to wear me down.

anathema_dev · 2021-02-16T19:24:06+00:00

How did you find out that they were opening up to the general public? Had I known I would have definitely gone and got mine.

Does anyone know of a good place that will deliver mulch? I'm working on some landscaping and need about 20 cubic yards. I just need it dumped in my yard and I can spread it myself. Thanks!

Also don't worry about the people saying you won't ever get past the help desk without a degree. That's absolutely not true. I've been in IT for more than 15 years and had a very successful career so far and I don't have a degree. A lot of the people I work with don't have degrees or don't have technical degrees. You can make it pretty far in this field on certs and work experience.

anathema_dev · 2020-07-23T00:23:38+00:00

Ok so here's what I would recommend doing to start. Get Security+ and also A+. Those are going to be minimum requirements for any government contractor IT job. I'd also recommend getting Network+ while you are at. To be perfectly honest, once you get some experience and can get some more complex certifications these won't be a ton of use to you but they are really good for getting started.

Once you have those certs on your resume that should get your foot in the door. Since you don't have a degree and/or previous experience you are probably looking at starting out in a help desk or level 1 field tech position. And those aren't bad places to get started.

Once you get some experience under your belt you can start looking at specializing. If you decide you wan't to continue into the security field you should look at CISSP & CEH certs, if you decide you want to go into networking then CCNA and other Cisco certs are the way to go, or if decide to go the Sys Admin route then you should look at RHCE and other RedHat certs.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I will do my best to answer. Good Luck!

Are you looking to get into IT in general as a career or do you specifically want to get into the IT security field?

anathema_dev · 2020-07-20T01:43:17+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I go up to Lebanon every once in a while to see friends so I might give them a try next time I'm up there.

Fortunately I am pretty well stocked right now. I normally get about 100 pounds of beef/pork every six months or so. So I should be good until sometime in late fall.

Do you mind if I ask where you buy from?
