My son is a cinematographer. When he was in the Dominican Republic to shoot Sammy Sosa returning home, his interpreter was the guy who is like the David Brinkley of that country.

When fans saw that well known individual carrying Steve's tripod, they assumed Steve was a rock star, so they rushed up asking for his autograph.

How much does a camera like that sell for? (Just curious)

How much does a camera like that sell for? I'm not sure about that one, but his video cameras are about $10,000 HPX500.

Thanks for asking. The one in the picture is furnished by NFL Films. Most of their work is in 16mm film.

He (and I) thank God every day for giving him a job that lets him rub shoulders with people like Tony Dungee, Emmit Smith, Troy Aikman, Roger Staubach and other fine players and coaches. His daughter won state in gymnastics so he took her along when he interviewed Nastia Liukin, the current Olympic champion.

Thanks,
Wes

That son proposed to his present wife in the mountains just north of Cuchara.
