Thanks to everyone! It means so much to me. OhLook one of my pet peeves are missed or misspelled words in newspapers or scrolling across the screen on CNN or one of the other news networks. I don't understand how professionals in a multi-billion dollar corporation can't figure that out.

Chet, I am happy to have set the bar as to what should be deleted and what can stay! You're welcome!

It may have been where I was at memory wise when I read the posts I wrote, but they looked bad to me, and like I said, I couldn't connect them to anything of any significance. They seemed out of place, so I removed them. A few I did add a word or two back in so it made sense. Ultimately, since nobody commented on it, I left them be, figuring everyone was too polite to comment on my non-sense. Now I know better. :-)

And yeah, bacon ham sounds about par for the course!

Another upside is, coming out of the fog I did somehow manage to secure a Best Of Trophy, which may mean I am better when I'm not totally here vs. totally being here?

If I was gonna change my Title I would put "Which way round do I hold the thing" or "Do my batteries last longer if I leave the lens cap on" :lol:

Jay, this is essentially a sample of what you might have missed over those two years. Wow, I'm glad to hear you're on the mend.

You see, Jay, your nonsense wouldn't have stood out.

So I walked into this bar ........

....."no it was bacon ham".

P.

Are you saying you heard this in a bar? It's possible to imagine a normal conversation as the context:

"Were you planning to fry the ham you bought?"
"No, it was bakin' ham."

Throwing diced onion is more fun - hits more things.

I know there is no "photography" chat in here, so lets say I replaced my can of coke which may or may not resemble a C*n*n L100mm M*c*ro since I appeared to have sold that can of coke. It's one of my favorite cokes, and after just a few hours enjoying the can of coke, I am really enjoying this can of coke again!!!

I threw my voice once... It just fell on the floor.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

I also threw up a bunch of times, but that was in college.
