Don't know what all the fuss is about. For the last three or four days, the "weather girl" on my thermometer has been running around with a halter top, bare midriff, and skin-tight knee-high slacks (around 50-55°F). Indeed, the weather in this area has been very mild for the last couple of years (blistery cold the year before that). We should have a warming spell (60-65°F) towards the end of February before the rainy season sets in. By the end of March or early April, the temperatures should just about be warm enough for sunbathing in the parks, short skirts on the ladies, and riding around on my scooter (my favorite means of around town transportation in the summer).

Well as a matter of fact I was. How did you know that?....It was YOU! You snuck up peaked in my office window and saw I was busy with Pentax Forums business. Then you snuck around to my kitchen window and stole all that red stuff! How could you? I thought everybody here was my friend! :cries again:

Look and think before opening the shutter. The heart and mind are the true lens of the camera.

Maybe you should go digital?

That way no one can steal the red stuff.

what am I thinking, they will just change and take all the positive numbers!
