Put the dog outside to alert you when UPS is arriving :) Train them to hear the truck miles away. ;)

Oh, wait, you have a cat.... n/m lol. :D

Better yet go out to the freeway and put your ear to the ground.:D

I've got a 70-200 f/4L and a 1.4 extender supposed to be delivered today via UPS. I am still waiting for the UPS guy to show up. He got me excited when he drove through my subdivision about two hours ago....did not stop....just flew on by.

I am about to spit fire.

Congrats!

I held one of those recently in a store and was like "whoaaaaah, this is sooooooo niiiiiice." I looked through the viewfinder and snapped a couple of shots and then put it down immediately. Mostly because I thought I might accidentally break it and then have to buy it. :lol:
