One day, he will return, and all that is bad about the world - famine, war, Live HociR - will be put right.

Testify, brother!

You know, he could actually be *The Dude*.

Neither have posted in this forum for five years, as much as we can tell.

Coincidence? I think not.

I almost bought a *istDL the other day for $60, but hesitated and someone else snatched it up. How do you like it, being an older camera and all?

It is awesome.

Lightweight.

Intuitive interface.

Six megapickle goodness.

I made quite a few great exposures with that camera.

But when I moved up to ten with the K10 I forsake that great little jewel. It has been languishing in my camera cupboard ever since.

And I have only had the K10 out a few times since I got the K5IIs.

And now I fear the K5IIs will suffer a similar fate and fade to black . . . . . .

Yes, my images have been cropping up here and there.

A couple more.

A Qantas 787 getting ready to test the brakes.

Soon to be delivered to some NASA actors or something.

My laptop is currently in millions of pieces, and seems dry, I'll see if I can remember how it goes back together tomorrow...

...it's a real pain top navigate the forums and post using a mobile device...

So Racer does know where the U is on the keyboard.
Pity he uses it in the wrong place.
