Have to wonder, is there such a thing as domesticated hickory nuts?

Many parts are edible.

Do the foodie participants in this thread realise that Rupert has a thread in the lounge about food?

I realise that if all these posts had been over in the lounge this thread would be back at 600 or so pages (just a guess!!) but this is a serious photography thread that has been derailed by all the food talk.

This thread cannot be derailed.

Can someone help me find my purpose? I seem to have lost it. I've looked everywhere. Under the bed. In the closet. Even behind the refrigerator.

I've looked everywhere.

Help me please.

If that post your referring to just happens to be # 666 that your coming up on it could get you a one way Pass to the depths of Hell ! Then there is a line with a little guy with Horns handing out special passes for those with Zero likes !
Im sure there will be a couple Pentaxian's there but doubt they will be lounging much because they wont be able to sit long on the Hot Coals....lol.

Is the K3 compatible with fake-hand selfie stick?
