Found Stockwell's Scorpion Content

I used to collect scorpions long ago and have recently considered getting a new pet scorpion. They're a lot of fun to watch and learn about. I was able to spend some time with a guy by the name of Dr. Scott Stockwell who used to maintain a thorough Web site on scorpions. He has a PhD in Entomology and had collected a large amount of data about scorpions. Someone else took over his content and keeps it up and running, but unfortunately Dr. Stockwell is no longer around to update the content. I even offered to maintain his site for him, but he wasn't interested. Anyway, here's the link to some of the original content: http://www.wrbu.org/scorpions/sc_du_jour/scorpion_du_jour.html

In addition, I have found the "What's That Bug" (http://www.whatsthatbug.com/) Website to be very informative as well. Although not as detailed as Dr. Stockwell's contributions, still educational and insightful.

I'm also considering getting a tattoo of a scorpion on my right upper arm. I've got a few sketches already. More on that later...
