I wasn't actually asking why I was mocking the commenter's own question.

why do some people find it necessary to put "So" at the beginning of their sentences?? Do you know that you could leave it out and it would never be missed??


So,... LOL I often do it as a slow lead-in...are you the grammar police today? This is another one of those "who cares" if we do things....

The Kodak vests are probably an advertisement for Kodak. Maybe there freelancers, so they use the free vests.

I like the one guy shooting with the cellphone. Trying to lose weight?

Look at the lens hood on that lens, and you can see how it can protect the lens. Of course, maybe the hood got damaged because it's so big.


So (HA! and in caps too), do you know how one would get one of these free vests? These folks were everywhere and even on the photographer stands that you have to have specifically a media pass for. I want a dang vest AND pass!

So, you got me. Fair and square. So do you also stop those ridiculous conversations where people feel compelled to use the word "like" no less that a dozen times in a sentence? Furthermore, are you of those that refuse to remain on topic in a thread that isn't yours? So, really, are you that sensitive? So weird.

Ah, that's TMS, so I'll have a look at RIR's website. I gotta find a sponsor of some type I bet, or create my own!

At RIR, I saw and have seen over the years in the pit/garage many photographers wearing specifically yellow vests, some clearly marked as different racing magazines, etc. Honestly, they looked official, and the ones wearing them looked like the real deal professional for publication photographer. All the others wearing the Kodak vests had equipment that was all over the map as far as make and level of equipment. Some had what looked like simple point and shoot, not exactly what one might expect of those making a living shooting a race. They clearly had the proper credentials. I could see those. Perhaps they were part of a local - or not - photography club that was given this opportunity either by virtue of belonging to the club(s) or negotiated in such a way that they could buy the pass as part of the group. Guess I've got more homework to do. So, I guess time will tell. (Really hope I used that word correctly). NOT!

Why does Red Lobster have shrimp scampi on the menu when scampi is a shrimp dish?

Does the phrase" impersonating a police officer" ring a bell? 😳😱


Cops do not go easy on police impersonators. They take it very seriously. I recommend you don't do that. Unless of course you like the feel of handcuffs.

Well, so, like, it depends on who's holding the key and whether there's naked people there.
