I only know this flyer as a dragonfly by name. Tutubi is what they call it in the Philippines. They come in different colors, mostly in attractive bright red. They come out during the rice harvest season along with fireflies that light up the dark rice fields at night.

I take it differently. Current wife must be the best cook. In her absence, this restaurant is the best alternative. Wife should be appreciative.

I'm sure you can use it on land too, but don't you have to keep it wet, as well?

Okay this is how I understand upload vs. download, in simple terms. I upload, when I am giving something. I download, when I am receiving something. Upload, giving away. Download, taking in. Upload, going away... from your computer/camera to another computer. Download, coming in... to your computer/camera from another computer. Still confused? :)

I am surprised some of the respondents are very serious, hahahaha. Yo soy Pepe. Yo quiero taco!

"Adorama sells it for $699 with free shipping.
Just saying." Browsing Adorama, I did not find the price you quoted.

BandH sells the same lens for $950, brand new.

I pick up the phone, listen and just say nothing. They will eventually hang up. I get many of these calls, usually with Indian (Bombay) accents.

Here's another one:
A general store owner hired a young female clerk who liked to wear very short skirts and thong panties.
One day a young man entered the store, glanced at the clerk and glanced at the loaves of bread behind the counter. Noticing the length of her skirt (or general lack thereof) and the location of the raisin bread, he had a brilliant idea.
"I'd like some raisin bread please," the man said.
The clerk nodded and climbs up a ladder to reach the raisin bread, which was located on the very top shelf. The young man standing almost directly beneath her is provided with an excellent view, just as he surmised he would be.
Once she descended the ladder he mused that he really should get two loaves as he was having company for dinner.
As the clerk retrieved the second loaf of bread, one of the other male customers noticed what was going on. Thinking quickly, he requested his own loaf of raisin bread so he could continue to enjoy the view.
With each trip up the ladder the young lady seemed to catch the eye of another male customer. Pretty soon each person is asking for raisin bread, just to see the clerk climb up and down.
After many trips she was tired, irritated, and thinking that she should really try this bread for herself. Finally, once again atop the ladder, she stopped and fumed, glaring at the men standing below.
She noticed an elderly man standing amongst the crowd staring up at her. Thinking to save herself a trip, she yells, "Is yours RAISIN, too?"
"No," croaked the old man, "but it's startin' to twitch."

I have been using PSP for quite a while, though I have not used much of its features. I only do simple PP, I am lazy. I just upgraded my PSP ProX7 Ultimate to ProX9 Ultimate last night with no issues. Upgraded to the Full version, since they currently have a special offer for $35 full version upgrade. Now is the time to try this PP software, with added bonus too. Thought you Hoggers may want to know.

Protective filter is a necessary evil. You'll be glad you have it when disaster strikes. All my lenses are protected with a filter.

I own a Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VRII, but have been longing to focus closer (sort of a close up). A good friend gave me a Canon 77mm 500D filter that attached to the said Nikon lens to reduce its minimum focusing distance much closer. I used the Canon filter for quite sometime with excellent results, until I purchased my own Nikon 105mm f2.8 micro lens. The Canon 500D filter can be had, used for about $90-100. It is maybe cheaper at other places. Good luck.

Me two!

I hear you, but here is the deal. Just being annoying, lol. :) Pooooot!
