Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I really like Bit Tornado but I think there was some issue with the Mac client.

Ah yes, it only comes as source for Mac OSX, so never mind.

Are there shielded composite video cables? I have a problem with a computer I use to play video on the TV. It sometimes gets interference that I think is coming from power cords, I know it isn't the computer's video that is the problem because the interference will remain when the computer is off and I turn the TV to that input. It's not real bad, but irksome nonetheless.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

OMG, I better get my hands on a good SLR while I still can. (I love my K1000, but I've also put it though the ringer.) But will there be film?

ETA: Now I'm looking at Leicas on Ebay which I will never be able to afford.

Oh sumi, my is in a sad state. I've dented the hotfoot so it's beyond use. The fake leather came off while I was camping in the rain. The shutter sticks open every once and a while, and I've had to (though I think this is fixed now.) duct tape the door shut in the past. Oh, and after a number of falls with the camera in my hand, I'm on my 40-80 mm lens.

I haven't used it a whole lot lately, mostly because it's just too frickin' heavy to carry around with me everywhere.

Mine is also in a sad state -- but I have one now because when I took Photography 1 that was the camera you had to have and when it got stolen, I just got another.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

when it got stolen, I just got another.

Did you steal the new one from Sue?
