Cool shot....but I don't see Curt in there.

I didn't move except my hand very forcibly at him to back away. There are signs asking for respect to others and not to speak loudly. My hand was loud enough for him to get the message.

Hi. <--- enthusiastic greeting.

puddlepirate44 wrote in post #7680809
No, no. I'm a natural in enthusiastic simplicity. It comes from spending years and years at the Tibetan monastery high in the Himalayas mastering the art of lazy.

Too bad I can't go there to learn how to muster such enthusiasm after a long day at the office.

Thanks everyone for you kind comments on the shot.

Some of these shots are freaking funny!

Yes they are, good imagination.

Fun little TV tune game.
Got 115 on the 10 round version.

317 in 10 rounds, but a couple of them I had never even heard of the show, probably was only in the US.

It only took a little while to get used to Pokie's short nose, and his eyes which go in opposite directions.

Awww, Pokie is cute, even with those eyes.

Yay! Got my 2 batteries from Sterlingtek....now I am all set for the trip....I hope. Debating on taking the laptop to back up shots. 35 GB of memory cards enough for 5 days?

If you are going to take time to have fun, and not just play with your camera, that should be lots. It wouldn't hurt to take the laptop anyway, that way you can process and post up some shots on the fly.

Darn colts, always stubborn about moving from a nice warm space.

You'd almost think it was a girl, as stubborn as he is being.

There is that to consider though.

Cute pics, Mike, though I have to admit that the Mall EB creeps me out. Always has.

Sid, that is a gorgeous dog!!

cfpackerfan wrote in post #7680990
Mike, Pokie is cute. Does he snort?

He does something that I guess could be called snorting... kind of like trying to clear his throat and nose repeatedly for a minute or so.

Well, off to walk Jasper, and maybe head to do some shopping. I hope up come back to news of a new baby>

Are you going to be bringing them with you in June? I'd love to meet them.

off topic (kinda)...

Here is a site you should all have on your favorites (if you don't already).
It's free to click, and it supports animal rescue.

Yes, at this point I'm just planning on a day trip, and seeing all the people and dogs is my top priority!

When do you leave Bobert?

Monday.

Take the laptop.

I'm wanting to just in case...but don't want the extra weight.....decisions, decisions.

Little bit of everything....only thing is no internet access. Apparently its something outrageous of a few bucks a minute on the internet on ship. Some people say to go to an internet cafe at port, but I don't think I'm gonna search one out.

MIKE did Christopher's tubes drop out too early?

Yep.. They dropped out about 6 weeks ago... Guess he needed more time with the tubes.

I'm speculating that it's an invention by a of studio photog who was looking for an additional revenue stream. But yea, I've seen'em here in the malls for quite some number of years. Not as popular as Santas, but still pretty easy to find.

You're probably right.

And, yeah, I agree the Easter bunny is fuh-reaky, I fully expected Christopher to totally wig out...

The only reason for taking the laptop would be if you can't wait to see your shots. I took mine on the last cruise...only because we had so many family members along that wanted to see what was going on....35 gb should get you through the trip....
