so i'm young enough to not remember having hot prepared meals at assemblies, but heard all about it from my parents and the like.
but what i do remember were all of the cold sandwiches and institutional snacks and soda.
remember the food tickets we started to use?
JeffT: Jack Daniels and other special spirits in our motor home during the session with the convention heavies.
Can't think of one assembly food item that could be called a favorite.
Always felt sorry for those brothers that slaved away in the kitchen during the hot meal days.
im on my phone, so im really limited.
i came out to my family about my doubts and my sexuality.
shit hit the fan.
We've been wondering if you are OK. Thanks to jgnat for bringing this back to the fore.

I have two vacs that have standard size hoses (1- 1/8 ID). One is a Sears canister vac.

How about this? I use one to clean computers, car dash crevices, etc.

i'm a nature photographer and like most always seeking better, longer glass.. i'm most attracted to the 600mm f4 is canon lens though some have suggested dropping down to a 500mm due to the weight issue.
both these lenses are heavy and i can't see myself lugging either one long distances without my modified baby stroller.. any experiences with either lens?
what tripod head are you using?.
Shamus: haven't heard much other than the ads I've read about the Kirk. Yeah it's pricey too! Aren't we a crazy lot?
Do a follow-up on its' performance if you will.

Shamus: I bought a 50mm about a month ago but haven't had the time to "play" yet. Soon. BTW did you see how much a 1.2 costs vs the 1.4?...WOW Too much!
Hint: I have a 100-400 IS which has been my mainstay since I started shooting. It's great for birds in flight too, heavy but not terribly so. I'd like to move to the next level with something that gives me a little more reach. Hence the 500 vs 600 question. I can buy a 500 for about $1000 less than a 600. Some folks seem to lean in that direction because of the weight of the 600, about 3 lbs more than the 500. I don't really see that as an issue because I likely will never lug either beast without my "carriage". Though the savings might launch me into that full frame dslr I want.

Isn't it amazing how much all this stuff costs? Always in search of the next best shot.
Shamus: likewise.
i remember in my kingdom hall one of our 5 elders bro.
"smith" had a gossipy wife sis "smith" who would be known to gossip from the time she enter the hall until she left.
i don't know how she never was reproved or counseled for her gossiping.
tiki - you beat me to the draw.
Too many elders run their mouths to the wifie who then has to elevate her position by being in "the know". When I tried to stem some of this in one cong. it fell on deaf ears among the body who denied it was a problem.

i dont think anyone really knows the answer to this one... but im thinking theyre probably driven around by cos in their buick lacrosses and don't actually have cars of their own... but i could be wrong..... by the way, the cos in my area drive used toyota corollas... so it would appear that the american cos get the plush cars while non-american cos get second-rate vehicles.. .
purchase used circuit overseer cars here.... .
Grant Suiter used to drive a black Electra 225.
I think most of the other older guys we knew did not drive.
Don't have a clue as to the newbies.
