Okay you got me on that one. Boy can I get sucked in easy. I was going to ask if you hadn't tried one out or read any reviews before you bought it. You are my kind of guy Steve. I love a good harmless practical joke.

Well my wife and I liked the Episcpal bishop. We felt he did a magnificent job. Everyone is allowed their own opinion. I remember listening to Queen Elizabeth's wedding on the radio. I am a bit of an Anglophile as my grandmother came from Scotland and my Grandfathers family were from Ulster. I don't believe I have missed a royal wedding on TV. I think they pulled it all off nicely and can only wish them many happy days ahead.

Nay. I found that most of the time the camera on P, the pro setting came up the same as the manual setting. I know how to use manual but condider it to be redundant. I just want the image and how I get it isn't a matter of any significance.

jaymatt just took the words out of my keyboard. I was just going to make a similar comment. I wonder if Tiffany's is the next stop?I'm thinking this happiness will last until the billfold or the credit card goes dry.

From the ladies smile I would venture it was a happy meeting. I wonder if the woman with the dogs is a dog sitter or perhaps gets paid too walk them. Nice shot.

Amazing if he is doing what I think he is. Is he actually balancing on that unicycle and playing at the same time? Nice catch to be sure.

I did not know you could put graduated filters on a cell phone. I did not know you could mount your cell phone on a tripod to take a one minute exposures. I did not know you could mount a flash on a cell phone and aim the flash up and behind you. I did not know a cell phone could track a bird in flight and zoom in and shoot 20 frames a second. I did not know a cell phone could shoot in RAW. I did not know a cell phone could shoot in manual mode. Looks like I have a lot to learn.
Give the tech guys a couple more years and that may be the norm for phone cameras. They aren't just phones anymore. They are electronic Swiss Army knives.

Not a god. Simply a man on a mission to straighten out the mess liberals like you have created.
I hardly think the common man has much influence one way or the other on the messes that our governing officials make. Also one mans idea of a mess may be another mans idea of good governance.

I think her attention is solely on the two kids with the lady by the gate. Nice try but no smile or attention this time for the fellow trying to elicit that smile. It is a cute pic.

Looks like Dad is overseeing the lesson. I take note the kid is keeping his distance from that filthy looking trash container. It might encourage more use if they scrubbed the outside down on occasion. Hopefully the inside gets a good sanitizing on a regular basis. As usual another example of your excellent subject matter. I have to agree with everything that shuck wrote.

There will always those that resist any change to the status quo. While I don't believe all the changes are good many of them are. We as a society need to be sure all our members have access to the necessities of life. At the same time we need to be extremely vigilant about those that would take advantage undeservedly. As to PC it sometimes gets carried to the point of being ludicrous. Those that use it in that manner are always suspect to me. I wonder what they are up to in order to get an advantage over others. As my dear departed father would say, "Use all things in moderation".

That ending is perfect. I remember back in the late 60's our school system was implementing what was known as the new math. They had a meeting to explain it to the parents. In essence we were told that the answer didn't matter, your child would be graded on how they tried to solve the problem. This was in the Fall of 1969. After the presentation there was a question and answer period. I raised my hand and was recognized to speak. I said that I was sure everyone in the room was aware of the U.S.A. putting a man on the moon that summer. I wanted to know if they used wrong answers to get him there? After all the if the process they used to get the answers was okay they should be good to go even if the answers were wrong. The look on the presenters face was priceless and his actions even better.
He never said a word and just walked out of the room.
