What's a K3? Is it anything like K2?

No, K2 is a mountain in Pakistan and/or a former Pentax flagship film camera.

It's funny, because they're all the same species. along with cabbage and collards. I have a coworker who will eat collards every day of the week, but can't abide the mention of Brussels Sprouts. I like broccoli, cauliflower, and sprouts, and am okay with cabbage, but collards... (shudders)

I like collards, but am not particularly fond of Brussel Sprouts unless they are fresh.

I'm not buying a K-3 because....

...I'm gonna win one at the contest

Round chambered...safety off...finger on trigger...hociR whispering in my good ear,

"C'mon, you can do it. You know you want it this way. Be a man."

A spare split second later followed by the smell of powder and then the immensity of what I had done hit me with full force. Mom always said I was irresponsible and would come to something like this. I stepped out into the night.

Does that mean you bought the K-3, Steve?

Does this mean what I think it means?

What about a picture of collards. This is a photography forum AND I do not know what they are.

No way am I getting within photographic range of cooked collards! Not without a gas mask!

The plant looks like a large, leggy cabbage. The cooked greens look like, well, cooked greens. The smell is (to me) like overcooked brocolli or Brussels Sprouts.

I looked in the mirror. The mark, though faint, is already beginning to form.
