I have to think that Howie handled Piers pretty well.They tolerated Piers Morgan, and he had a strange way about him.
Probably wasn't a night went by that Piers didn't check to see if Howie was under his bed before he went to sleep :).
I'm sure he and Sharon made sure Piers thought it was his OWN idea to leave the show - - :)

I just cannot get over the idea that, for whatever reason, Ansel Adams and Don Imus are mentioned together in a topic on this forum!

Read from beginning about Don Imus mentioning he had bought Ansel Adams camera, and just like playing telephone, the conversation took a turn all of its own. :lol:

"Well, people have asked me what kind of cameras I used. It's hard to remember all of them. Oh I had a box Brownie #1 in 1915, 16. I had the Pocket Kodak, and a 4 x 5 view, all batted down. I had a Zeiss Milliflex. A great number of different cameras. I want to try to get back to 35 millimeter, which I did a lot of in the 1930s. Using one of the Zeiss compacts. In the 20s and into the 30s, I would carry a 6-1/2 x 8-1/2 glass plate camera -- that was a little heavy. And I had a 4 x 5 camera, then of course we went to film, to film pack, things became a little simpler. . .I guess we all did the best as we could. If we had very heavy cameras we simply didn't go so far or take so many pictures. Knowing what I know now, any photographer worth his salt could make some beautiful things with pinhole cameras."

If you get the chance to see it there is a great program on PBS all about Ansel Adams, his life and his work. Plenty of shots of his greatest photographs. I'm looking for a coffee table copy of a book of his photos. Incredible B&W photography and dark room magic.
