20D: SO GOOD, IT'S CRIMINAL !

... and if you had been using a film camera? Guess he'd have had to wait a day or two. Probably worse. He would've taken your film and them maybe developed it, maybe looked at the pictures, and, then, maybe returned them to you, eventually. |

Which medium format camera was that? Inquiring minds want to know. I'm betting a Pentax 6x7 as it's the deadliest camera I've held. Oh, it was a "slightly" modified Hasselblad.. |

I am a conservative....I have been writing letters and bitching at
congressmen all of my life, but I like living near the ocean, and all these states are "blue", which means they are the land of the socialists, and Robin-Hooders, who want the government to own and control everything, and pay all the costs with my tax money, and I am effectively disenfranchized. You mention socialism alot, but from your posts it's also clear you don't have much of an idea of what socialism really is. "William Graham" wrote in message ...

Oh I don't know, William... John McCain will be older than you are now
if/when he's elected president! McCain hasn't got a hope of being appointed or elected if you will to the Presidency, he ****ed off the core of Republican voters, the fundamentalist Christian Evangelicals (Your respectable Taliban) by saying they are "agents of intolerance." which is perfectly true but doomed his candidacy from day 1.

Heck...My 70 year old dad still goes early with me to batting practice before Padres games here in S.D., and he's STILL know to practically dive for balls...and I'm not kidding. Our latest catch came only last season, and was added to a collective of about 50 or so balls we've caught over the years. It's one of those father-son things that neither of us ever outgrew. There's hope for you yet, you old geezer! Images (Plus Snaps & Grabs) by MarkČ at: www.pbase.com/markuson |

Like your Catholics?
I don't know any Catholics ;-] If you come to Ireland today, you won't find many Catholics, religion has been replaced with shopping. There are probably more devout Catholics in America, in fact - Europe is pretty much secular nowadays, not many give two hoots about religion, that's probably why we are much less bothered about the threat of so called Islamic fundamentalism, that kinda thing just wouldn't work here on a wide scale.

The above may be true, and it doesn't say much for the present day state of our democratic system.....It means that for any candidate to win the election, he/she must be a weaseling, mealy mouthed, liar who only publicly says what he and his advisors believe to be what 51% or more of the American people believe. So maybe this is the reason why we end up with the, "leaders" that we end up with? My solution is to pick our congressmen out of a hat containing every eligible person in the population, and eliminate the elective process altogether.....The resulting congress can elect the president of their choice out of their membership. But this "pie-on-the-sky" solution will never be adopted until we are changed by the primary right of the people, which is the right of revolution. |

Maybe so, but I can't do anything about that. - All I can do at this point is to try to survive, and I do that by trying to prevent things like 9/11 from happening again, and voting for the biggest "hawks" I can find and telling them to arm us to the teeth.....Do you have any better suggestions for me? |

You mention socialism alot, but from your posts it's also clear you don't have much of an idea of what socialism really is. Here is my definition: Socialism is a system where the government takes all the peoples money away from them, and then doles it back out according to their "needs". And, of course, the government decides exactly what those needs are. So you end up living the lifestyle that the government wants you to live. You eat the food they want, live in the house they want you to live in, near the factory they want you to work in, and have only the things they want you to have, which, of course, are only those things that they deem are good for you and the rest of the population . - Lots of fun, huh? And these socialists resent people like me, who saved and invested my money so that I could be independent and provide for myself.....We aren't in their plan. They want to take our money away from us and give it to the general fund, so we will become good little ants, just like the others in the colony. |
