For reasons I do not feel like going into I am most likely going to be selling my gear, body, lenses etc.

This seriously sucks. Anything we can do to help temporarily?

No fees on the contract. If someone actually bites on the contract, a little kickback would be nice....

I'll bring up the parental contract later.....

If somebody bites....you are in for a clean 20%....only seems fair.

Read back, we did this, it only appears upside down. The ship is fine, you can take that big orange life preserver off.

Coolness...the dang life preservers do have a certain dork factor to them when sitting in an office 500 miles from the nearest ocean.

A guy on the flight back from Oregon wore one, an old one. We went over mountains.

Parental contract:

The following is a contractual agreement between the parental units (heretofore called, "Parents") and their offspring (heretofore called, "Spawn" or whatever else I feel like calling them). This agreement, once signed, is binding yet amendable. Procedures for amending this contract will be discussed below.

Duties of the Parents:

Whatever they feel like.

Duties of the Spawn:

Whatever the Parents DON'T feel like.
Whatever the Parents deem to be "character building" for the Spawn.
Whatever the Parents deem as their entertainment for the Spawn to perform.

Expectations:

Parents: To provide the basic necessities of life. Shelter, food and clothing.
Shelter would mean: Not in the rain.
Food would mean: Whatever was made for dinner.
Clothing would mean: That which keeps you dry, modestly attired and safely shod.

Shelter would NOT mean: any car you want to stay out of the rain.
Food would NOT mean: whatever your incredible metabolism can handle
Clothing would NOT mean: clothes that are guaranteed to make you cool, or fall off your body whenever the wind speeds exceed a half a knot, or make you look like a tramp. If a Parent has a choice between shoes that cost $20 or shoes that some overpaid, felonious basketball player endorses that cost over $50, the Spawn be wearing new shoes and the Parent will be pocketing the extra $30.

The Parents will address NEEDS first, not WANTS. It will behoove the Spawn to understand the difference as soon as possible.

Spawn: Whatever. The Parent. Says. Until you pay for everything in the house, this is not negotiable.

Specific Items:

Dad: You will be expected to know everything. Once you actually start knowing everything, then everyone will suddenly not want to know it.

Mom: You will work harder, and longer, than anyone else. You will worry over everything. You will make sure every single thing is just "so". In exchange, we will set aside a Sunday morning in May where the rest of the family will attempt to make a breakfast that you will have to clean up later.

Son: You will be expected to make your Parents worry about what the heck is going on in your brain. Don't worry, this will come naturally.

Daughter: Ever see those jewels that are locked up in some well guarded tower? Beautiful, yet never to be seen or touched? Protected jealously? Yeah, that's you. Get used to it.

Environment: It is everyone's job to turn up the heat. It is the Dad's job to turn it back down and pass out sweaters to the Heat Leeches in the house.

Punishment: The phrase, "I brought you into this world, I will take you out" was never meant to be funny.

Amendment Policy: This contract may be amended whenever one or both of the Parents feel like it. It's just that easy. Conversely, the Spawn will recite this contract every Saturday evening without fail.
