The 180/3.5 macro is very old for the EF mount and not weather resistant. It is a poor choice for sports since the aperture is very slow as is the antiquated AF. Any version of the 70-200/2.8 would be a logical choice. I've used the 7D with a weather resistant lens in light rain without...

To Serve Man was a fine "cookbook." :D

88°F here and increasing.

Like not taking a shower for a few days? Maybe someone will patent walking and chewing gum at the same time. ;-)

So it wasn't like in autumn 1966 when all the regular shows went to color.

Sorry, I meant autocorrect. The Androids don't like "HD."

I'd be more concerned about leachables than particles, although you may mean that. Presumably the bags are designed for the purpose and would meet the requirements. Perhaps sensitive individuals should avoid that technique. Frequency of use would be a key factor for most people.

I try to type HD as in high definition. In which year did it start? Damned spellchecker.

The spellchecker runs amok. Is there a way to disengage the damned thing?

I have solved the camera problem with black gaffer tape. :) At least they cannot video spy on me with the phone.

When did the TV shows become HE? I was noticing some reruns in the regular definitely.

:-D One really must plan meals far ahead with that method. I might not even know what state I will be traveling to 40 hours later.

It sounds like something from an infomercial. :erm: I would not trust low heat on many meats; there are too often contaminated with pathogens.

My tire is a flat. :cry: Happy f*cking new year to me...

How can Mark have so many WUs compared to the points?

What ancient MB are you using with no USB KB support in the BIOS?

I guess he must be dropping balls in NYC by now.

Sorry, perhaps you are working too hard lately. I assumed it was simply an uncommon and glib reference to all those who adhere to the standard Gregorian calendar. ;)

OK. I have no grandchildren so I'm not up on the latest copy of the Sesame Street.

People like Greg keep them in business. :) I'm sure that older commercial systems need replacements once in a while too, and there may not be USB ports free or there may be some other reason not to use USB.

Since 2007 my life has been going downhill fast. 2001 was not quite as bad as I predicted a year ago, but maybe it will degrade to that point in Q2 2012. Jan 4 is a dead date, so I need to get past that in one piece before thinking about the rest of the year. But you are still a youngster, so...

Coug, They changed the western calendar in 1582 and it was named after the pope at the time. Everyone knows that. Perhaps if you are eastern orthodox or from other cultures then there are other New Years days. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_calendar

Cyanogen is a very nasty gas to handle. :rambo:

Oh I see. What is with the Androids developers and the version names? Are they hungry all the time or what.

What is the ICS? Does my phone have it?

They are both part of the problem, but the size of the lens is indicative of the size of the sensor.

But you know Greg always has some rationale for preferring equipment from the old days. Look how long he held onto the SCSI. ;) Now my smartphone was manufactured in October and will be obsolete soon, but I'm not going to pretend it is best at anything. In any case the camera is absolute...

That was over a year ago. What are the criteria for excellent?

It looks like the typical crap to me. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/colombiana/ http://www.metacritic.com/movie/colombiana http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1657507/

What? Is that the avatator image you use?

Well I'm not sure about the exact number, but it was a bunch of Blue Rays. :-D

I bought one set for a family member. I think there are 15 discs altogether.

Oh Merc, you have such a way with words. Strategic reserve of beef, indeed. :mrgrn: Am I the last one to notice? How did you become a Fixture with Fwatah on WD? Handruin seems to be the only other one with his line nVidia > AMD.

I have a couple at home and it is plugged it at work as well. It is a nuisance.

Of course. Perhaps I should not have assumed that the calendar and e-mail require handling the phone. I've only used the hands-free feature for making calls.

Yikes. I thought he meant outdoors, e.g., on a patio. I can't imagine anyone using a portable charcoal or gas grill indoors.

Thanks. I'm new to the whole smartphone deal. It seems like there are 3-4 physically different versions of the SII depending on the carrier. The .T..Mobile one is larger than some. The case I have has a front rim that snaps into the back polymer-coated cover. The case is sturdy, but it is...

Best is relative I guess. The lens apertures are smaller than a drop of water and have practically infinite DOF. :monkey:

All rentals or multi-family homes? I thought there were some requirements for distance from the building, that's all.

Nope, they have only shells and not for the phone model I use. I understand the Galactic S II is already obsolete since December.

I thought that operation of the phone or similar device while driving was unlawful in CA and most other states. Does your employer force you into a position where it is vital to the business? What did people in your shoes do 5-10 years ago, or is it a new or heavily changed profession that was...

One of the most annoying things about the S^MSUNG phone is that I can't find a good case for it. The Blackberry had a nice case that the phone slid into smoothly and could be removed from easily as well. Now the "cases" for the new phones are mere shells that offer zero frontr protection and...

It says Samsung T989.

Yes, and I can feel the heat after 10-15 minutes of using the internet.

So basically they are slower than 2-3 year old Intel ULV CPUs, but with better graphics. Unfortunately the >3.5 lbs. weight is rather much.

Or does he have extra refrigerated volume for all of that? I'd be nauseous just thinking about all that dead flesh at home. :hurl:

You met a local woman? 8-)

The one I have is a S^MSUNG, but it is only 2D though. I'm surprised that the CPU does not slow down when the load decreases. It is crazy that the CPU is actually running faster than the one in my small notebook. However, the battery is 9x smaller.

Except for the DD. :lol:

It was very sparse in the office on Tuesday; perhaps 25% attendance at best.
