This morning I had to bid adieu to #2 molar. We had some great meals together. A few days ago it had some bacon for one last time. Fare thee well old tooth. We were a great team together.

Oh well.

I'm not surprised to see querulous carping over this K-9 already. Masochism in practice, I guess.

Has there been an announcement? I have not been paying too much attention to anything other than this job of mine and house renovations

I saw several on my trip, they look nice and big enough for two, figured I try this out since my Finland trip got canned. The tent is comfy and fairly painless to set up and take down. One major downfall is that after it is deployed, you are not driving anywhere for supplies or sight seeing, working on a solution for that...

We really like the idea of a super light-weight solution but a couple things dissuaded us....

No toilet
No AC (important for the dog, if not me, the old dog)
Ability to set up a base camp for a few weeks
Heater for inclement days. If we are on the road for a few months, playing cards or watching a movie on crappy days is a nice option

Anyway, we'll see what happens when purchase time finally comes around.

Of course, Larry, of course. I'm sure you're a stable genius. Extremely stable.

Sort of. They've published some specs. 26MP, 12 fps, a gazillion focus points, 4k video, blablablah... But the choir of carpers never disappoint

If they've come with an updated version of this (I mean, plasma TV? Come on...) it might be something?

Yes there has.

And there will be no talk of it here.

There is a place for that drivel, in The Doom And Gloom forum.

Bacon, squirrels and Godzilla only.

So long as you eat some bacon, everything will be alright in the universe. All the planets will line up, the Sun will continue to rise in the East and set in the West, and Heironymus Merkin will finally forget Mercy Humppe and find true happiness.
