    Palm Springs crooks...

    This article isn't super informative, but it looks like they were desert torts, sulcatas, and russians, along with one red eared slider. http://www.mydesert.com/article/20120729/NEWS01/120729001/14-desert-tortoises-stolen-from-Moorten-Botanical-Gardens-Palm-Springs?odyssey=mod_sectionstories

    Collecting?

    I collect unique/limited edition whiskey and beer bottles, as well as shot glasses. All of my friends get me shot glasses when they travel and I travel quite a bit for work, so I'd venture to say I have around 120 shot glasses in total. My girlfriend collects magnets, which cover the entire...

    Rubbermaid question

    The easiest way would be a box cutter and a metal straight edge. Use the straight edge to guide your blade, and don't try to cut the through in one pass, make multiple passes with lighter pressure, then you'll have less chance of slipping and it will just be easier all together.

    Heartbroken

    I feel like if you had warning signs posted and someone hurt themselves, that would take away the liability from you. I have a few teachers that are lawyers, and I'd like to ask them about this. Where are you located? Also, if you need signs and can't find any readily available, I can make you...

    Help 2

    I don't know anything about Greek tortoises, but I do know that the aspen bedding you have your tort on can be dangerous, causing impaction because they eat it but can't pass it. There was a case a while ago with a member who had Aldabra's that ate the bedding and became quite sick.
