It would say:

(1) Don't sell the XT


That would have left me with only one body!!:evil::D:p

1. Don't buy the 20D. Buy a Noink instead! :DLOL


Ok, ok real list this time:

1. Don't sell the 20D
2. Wait 6 more months then buy the 40D.
3. Learn about DOF
4. More than 5 shakes and you're playing with it...:p;)

Good stuff!!!!

Note myself at age 20.

1) When you go to tell that guy at the bar he is hot, don't ist down on the stool. It's broken and you're gonna fall flat on your arse and embarass yourself.

2) Take up photography NOW. You're gonna miss alot of good shots of your kids for waiting.

3) When your twins are born, don't worry, they are going to be fine. It's just gonna be bumpy.

4) Learn to think before you speak NOW. It will come in handy and cause alot less embarassment for you in the future.

5) Don't trust your future inlaws! Don't buy a house from them. It's a big scam and will almost cost you your marriage.

YES! I have plenty of space left, just not sure where and if I really want it. It took me years to get my first one, so this could take a while! :D

One problem with this premise. Teenagers don't listen to anybody... not even their future selfs.

I prefer the Bill and Ted movies. Why if I just think of it now and remember to do it back then, I will have it now. Yea… that’s how it’s got to work…


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

They are only doing this in an attempt to re-open the wormhole that appeared shortly after the last one was made that sucked Alex Winter into oblivion. They want to (a) find out where the wormhole went and (b) see if Alex Winter survived the trip through!

That could end up being a real stinker. I don't think you can capture the magic a second time around.

Ya know, I don't care why they are doing it. It blows! And I swear to god if they try to pull off a Wyld Stallions reunion I will cry into my pillow that night.

No way, no how.
It's almost as bad as the straight to DVD Lost Boys sequel. That one broke me 80's nostalgic heart.

Just doesn't quite have the same ring as Circle K huh? And where in the heck are they going to find a phone booth in this day and age?

I didn't get really serious about photography until I was 35. Now I feel like I missed so much and wish I had gotten 'the bug' in my teens.

Ummm... you do know it's a fictional movie, right?

Whatever man! Whatever! I knew a kid who's cousin's next door neighbors aunt had the actual prototype for the hover board in her garage.

They just don't want us to know about it. The bassist from Iron Butterfly could have told you all about it. :p
