jamesk8752 (I wonder how big his house is?)

I suggest that these should be stand-out performances for the year, not to be awarded for lifetime achievement. I give my vote for sickest LBA'er for 2008 to Hinman for incorrigibility if not outright cash outlay.

And I'm wondering WHERE jamesk8752's house is. *evil grin*.

I would just like to see a photo of all Jim's lenses at once - maybe taken with the 12-24 at 12mm (it is sharpest at 12mm) at f/8 in good light, so we can read the front of each lens.

Except... I don't know if that would help calm my LBA or have the opposite effect

Regardless, I'm almost ready to enact a self-imposed 'no more buys in 2009' policy, especially since my furnace went out this weekend and I should be throwing cash elsewhere now...

I would like to cast my vote or second the nomination of Voe for the God of russian lenses...

But I beg of you!!! Please change the Award to 'Czar of Russian Lenses' then and only then will I wholeheartedly place my confirmation stamp of approval on this nomination!

As a couple of members have objected to this dubious honour, I have removed the category of Most Annoying Member.

You all know who i am anyway.

It doesn't have to be a done deal. Someone might have a New Year resolution to knock him from his throne.
Maybe you already have his address.

I reckon some people who put people on their ignore list do it because of lack of willpower. If they see the posts they won't be able to not read them.

On the same subject, has anyone tried putting themselves on their own ignore list?
I wonder what would happen.
