Salt Peanuts

Coffee. It's been a while sine I've had a coffee on a weekend.

Why in the hell would anyone want 24 MP in a cropped sensor?

You forgot a 27" iMac and Mac Pro.

I dunno, I'm liking the size of 15" MBP a lot better than my previous 13" laptops.

Great news! Congrats, Nate!

That's a radio station.

With Celtics (and Memphis) gone, I'm rooting for the Bulls this year.

Manley's product pages make me hungry.

I really like the photos, Knuckles. I especially like the manual focus 35 f/2 shots.

I'd been using the sling strap from OP/TECH and it had been working well for me. Well, at least until I took off the grip from my Canon body since the extra weight was getting bit too much for my left hand/wrist (tendonitis). Without the grip and second point of attachment, the camera hang from the sling strap at an odd angle, constantly bumping off the side of my body (even moving the mode dial on one occasion). So now, I've got a strap that I can't really use unless I put the grip back on (won't be happening). I guess I'll be splurging for a BlackRapid in the near future.

Taboo

^ I think we have the same toilet (or some permutation of Cadet 3).

Went to my second contact lens fitting appointment. Now my eyes are really irritated from me trying to put in/take out contact lenses couple of times. Hopefully, it gets easier with more practice.

Happy Birthday!

Basically in the same boat as you, Jacob. I've been making do with google, but it's been a huge pain in my ass. I really hope they roll out the free version soon.

I just think they'll update 1Ds3 before 5D2.

Just low supply is my guess. Most of Canon's more high-end items have gone out out of stock quickly whenever dealers get them back in stock. IIRC, B&H just received some shipments of 5d2 (and other Canon items) sometime last week, meaning they all were bought in less than a week. As for 5d3, I doubt we will see anything until next year, due to the disaster.

Finished putting on another coat of pain in the dining room. Hopefully, I don't have to put on additional coat as I don't have enough paint left for that.

x2, the reason I'll probably go with SSD in the future.

Finally primed and painted the walls in our dining room where we had removed chair rails a while back. Now waiting for the first coat to dry so I can put on the second coat today.

I love my Khaki Mechanical.

Thanks, Dusty. I'll look into them.

Happy Birthday!

I once had something shipped via UPS 3-day select, mistakenly thinking it was getting shipped from the West Coast when in fact it was being shipped from NH. It sat at the local sorting time for extra time so it could be delivered in 3 days instead of next day, which is when I would have received it had it been shipped via regular ground service.

Delivered or arrived at the post office? If it's "arrived at post office" and they haven't attempted to deliver it yet, there's no reason for them to let you pick it up before delivery (or attempt for it) is made.
