no, his Dad dies a couple of years ago, that's how he became a billionaire from a multi millionaire

Well it sounds like he took his dads success as a hand up and ran with it, most people in that situation don't.

How about the the angle of view of an 85mm lens on a 30D: AoV = 2 atan(sqrt(22.5² + 15²) ÷ (2 × 85)) Algebraic: Interesting... the problem is that is not I think... I guess I am doomed to forver have more keystrokes

Fricks Cream of the Crop is, in fact, a title More info | Aug 17, 2011 13:03 | #6711 Geoff_Shawcross wrote in post #12951731 **Raises his hand in the air** Umm.....question......Anyone here ever owned a Beagle? Reason I ask, is that my wife really wants a dog (and I wouldn't mind another one eventually as well), and I've been looking up different breeds that I think I might like.

Aug 17, 2011 13:04 | #6712 Geoff_Shawcross wrote in post #12952318 I remember someone doing this while we both waited for the elevator to arrive. This was in the lobby of a 50 floor building which I had been in numerous times......That day wasn't a good day to annoy me...... Anyways, as we got in the elevator, I asked what floor he wanted, to which he said #38. I simply said okay and smiled......I then proceeded to button mash all the buttons I could until I hit #38 (think I hit about a dozen before his ). I proceeded to then get off on the first floor it stopped at and wistled on the way out. It just so happened that the second elevator had just arrived and let someone off on that floor, so I got on it and road smoothly directly to the 20th floor. ![]() ......Never did see him again. ![]() thats awesome, when i was in Atlanta with the wife in kids i'd always step onto the elevator in the lobby and say" I wanted to go down not up, crud wrong elevator" or wait till t got close and say "Sinners going down,Liars going up" Aren
