When most of the time it's about the Leica camera, where the owners of said producing company do not likely give a flying hoop what anyone on this list says. Naw! Don't give me the BS line they read it! Hell if they did read it, you guys wouldn't have a damn thing to whine about because the company would've fixed everything you guys bitch about every time they make some kind of move in production! Hell most of you can't afford what they sell anyway, so what's the big deal? Some of you folks get your under shorts or whatever other garments you wear in a great big knot because: A/ there's too much traffic! B/ too much about other stuff! C/ politics, when on this particular occasion it happens for the good of the world! D/ Just bitch about living at times! Some of you have absolutely no appreciation what is freely handed to you each and every morning you turn on your computer! That Brian Reid hands you free of charge, because he's an all round super nice guy who gives of his life and funds of livelihood so many of you can learn, have fun, become better people, see the world from many aspects that you'd never in a lifetime on your own. And the list of potential learning things possible is endless! Thank you once again Brian, mon ami. OK so now I've given you something else to whine and bitch about don't hold back get it off your chest and hopefully you'll feel better! :-) ME? Hell I don't care as I'm always learning something about being a better photographer, digital technician and that there are lots of nice folks out there in the cold cruel world I'd sure as hell like to shake hands with, meet face to face, break bread with and share a fine glass of wine on this list. So the USA elected and held an inauguration of their new President. To me watching, it's a wonderful thing for the world as a whole, not just the USA. And just because a great number of equally pleased folks as myself, a Canadian who enjoyed the day and event. I don't see it as a too much traffic topic! Besides for those of you who didn't know, we Canadians are basically blood cousins to the Americans who felt elated and voiced their excitement and pleasure about it. So get over it, just be damn glad you live in a country, whatever it maybe, where you can freely use the internet without the local officials kicking in your door and knocking yer head off! It's like the most enlightening day in the world since the Berlin Wall came down. Enjoy it for what it is and means to the world! Our local photo traffic will quietly slip back to it's photo stuff shortly. So OK rant off, yer turn.. go for it! Just remember I'm smiling and not going anywhere cause I love you all! Have a nice day!! Man doesn't that just bug the hell out of you! :-) Dr. ted
