dsl here too, but I have friends with dial up as their only option, so dsl seems pretty good.

You have DSL but you aren't a slowski

Darn on the China Cat.

Does anyone know anyone who might be interested in the grip for my Xti? Since I bought the naked bear's grip for Señor Cinco and the Xti has been shifted to back-up status, I don't really need the grip.

Nah, still can't go. No dinero still and leave is being used for the cruise.


Oh good, I'm starving. What are we having?

Skip the cruise, we will be having way more fun.

Curried shrimp, coconut rice and a side salad. Yummy

did you cook or order Zanerino?

I'll keep that in mind, John. You'll be the first person I think of if I decide to get rid of it.

Thanks. Why don't you shoot a couple of shots of the top of the camera and detail on the lens and I'll see if I can sort out the dials for you?

It isn't worth all that much....H&H is a common blended Scotch...and not considered one of the better brands. If you know someone that likes blended Scotch...you are better off letting them drink it up.

Back when I used to drink spirits, I used to like Irish whiskey. I know a lot of it is blended like scotch, but I still enjoyed it.

REALLY a lot so far. I can't wait to use it for a shoot. So far it's only seen dogs and random snaps.

My luck ran out already, lol. Boss's Ex called and wants to go through everything first.

Come on, Robert. You've got to get your priorities straight... Now tell me; which would you rather do? Meet up with a bunch of your POTN buddies and shoots lots of cool pictures or go on a cruise which is going to cost you the better part of a year's salary?

Not cool John...making me have to choose.....and reminding me the cost of the cruise. Oi. I want to go, really, but I can't seem to make both work out. Perhaps the next one...which can be more central in the US.

FWIW, I just heard on the news the Ravens player that took that horrendous hit yesterday and had to be taken off the field on a stretcher is going to be fine. All his tests came back negative...

I wish. I'm sick of winter already. Stupid snow and cold.

Sometimes you have to make the tough choices... I get the impression the cruise idea is being driven by other influences also...

I have considered taking a cruise, but I think the only one I would be interested in would be the Alaska inside passage cruise. Cruises to the Mexican Rivera whould be just more of the same. I've been to Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, La Paz, and Cabo San Lucas, not to mention Costa Rica...

I too would like to do the Alaskan cruise thing. Someday..

Yep...wife really wants to go on the cruise....and MIL & FIL are going with us.

My aunt told us that the Alaskan cruise is the one that must be the one to go on...over any others. That will be another trip in the future.

I am very sensitive to boat motion, tho I would like to try a photo cruise. I can get motion sickness on dry land watching a boat or even a dock moving on the water, and it doesn't have to be rough water either!

There is a motion sickness patch that many people have recommened for us. That may help a bit.
