And make more money in the shadowy ending years of their careers than they ever earned in their Salad days.
I doubt that a band like Kiss would make more money now than in their golden years, but they certainly should have retired a long long long time ago. They now look more like some kind of tribute band of themselves than the real thing. But who knows, maybe kenspo will share some pictures of the show!

I don't want to say too much, BUT
Photokina is in Germany as we all know.

KZ is the IATA airport code for Kazakhstan.
One can see that the official wikipedia for Kazakhstan is using a photo made with a Pentax (K-x) only for the town of Astana :
Kazakhstan - Wikipedia
Just look at the metadata at the end :
File:Central Downtown Astana 2.jpg - Wikipedia

We have something to be revealed for Photokina, in Germany, something linked to KZ with a Pentax in a very strange town in a far country, but it would mean nothing without 922.

Well, the flight number 922 is making a connection between Germany and... Astana (KZ) :

Maybe I've said too much, I will stop there !

I just got word that this was an old SKU being tested, and therefore not indicative of anything. Looks like it has been removed now.
That's what they have to say.

Maybe when the wife and I go up to the Tap Room for some Kerplunk, and Diver during trivia night, it may make sense to me, probably not since I have to drive.

Kerplunk~ Blueberry Sour ale, about 5% abv
Diver~ India Pale Ale at 4.7%abv

They also have a 10%abv Quadruple Bock but that might get put in a growler to go home with.

Golden Years? All these old geezers in their Golden Years getting off tour busses pay $250 a ticket to pack the Vegas Dinner Shows. Retired. And reliving their youth.



Also, inflation

Probably, but to me it seems like a data entry error. 8.3 fps is from the K-3, and does a 50 Mp APS-C sensor even exist?
