  1. I like the RC 1.5. Bright colors in clear water work for me.
  2. There were two in Springfield tonight. We were southwest of Mercy and one flew right over us. Then just as it got out of sight another one came from the southeast but it was much higher.
  3. The Traveling Wilburys were awesome. Orbison was a badass.
  4. That's cool.
  5. Amazing. Seen some big hail when I was a kid but nothing like that.
  6. These are my nightmares.
  7. Well as usual I am wrong. Apparently hail through the roof is a thing. https://youtu.be/rQ_4xxq-S-w
  8. Geez those people on TV are insane. Heard one yesterday telling people to get under their beds because a softball size hail stone would go right through the roof. I've seen some weird crap with storms but I can't remember ever hearing about a hail stone going through a roof with such impact that you need to hide under a bed. He's also the one that likes to tell everybody to put a helmet on while inside. As far as whether or not they exist, I've seen several. From a distance they are cool as hell. Right up close they suck.
  9. Yep. Gear is just a tool. I wanted to upgrade to improve my high school sport shots and get into concert photography. None of which are going on right now.
  10. Very true. No matter the item you can always find the best and the worst. dpreview sux. Really the only photo people I can stand to listen to is Fro Knows Photos. But he's a little arrogant and thinks everyone should just buy the best of the best. At least he's entertaining.
  11. I haven’t had time for a lot of playing but this is an impressive piece of machinery. I heard a lot of reviews that the lens was slow to focus but I don’t see it. Barely touch the shutter button and you have a half dozen pics, all in focus, before you know what happened. Charli Suzi
  12. Typical Trumpster reply. Don't like something or someone you just poop in you hand and fling it like a monkey. Try being smarter. Quit letting a party decide your thoughts.
  13. Hilarious. I couldn't make it past the beginning where he said it was okay for politicians to lie but not media. If you believe either one of them you are an idiot.
  14. Can I fish out of a kayak?
  15. My wife loves to mow. I try to let her enjoy it as much as she wants.
  16. Not anymore than normal. They aren’t all going to fall out all at once.
  17. They don’t have to. They will burn up in the atmosphere when they fall out of orbit. Well that’s the plan anyway.
  18. It's called Starlink and they don't cost anywhere near 50 million each. Maybe each launch that has load on board costs 50 million. I don't think you have to worry about ol Elon. Unless you give him a bag of weed for safekeeping. Now will the government use this system against you, oh hell yeah. They will see everything you look at, but they already do. That has nothing to do with Elon playing Space Ranger.
  19. That’s what I’m looking for. I’m upgrading from a Nikon D90. Great camera in its time and still works great but I needed something with better ISO and decent video capabilities.
  20. Well I pushed the button on a new gear order today. Couldn’t make the jump to mirrorless. The money to replace glass at this point just isn’t available. I’m also not thrilled with the size. Great it’s compact, but I have big meaty paws. I like a big meaty camera. I strongly considered a Z6 but again the glass issue plus I think Nikon will bring something new soon. So I stuck with the Nikon D7500 DSLR that I almost bought last summer. My current glass isn’t great but would be very expensive to replace everything. Or even just get the same coverage. I did throw down on a Tamron 24-70 2.8 VC G2. It was more expensive than the camera. Now I just gotta wait on it to arrive.
  21. I don’t pay attention to the polls. I truly don’t care which old rich white guy, that is out of touch with how most people live, wins. I was just making an observation from the outside.
  22. I think it's hilarious to listen to him talk. I admit that I don't like him but I didn't like him before he was president, before his TV show. I think it's hilarious that he was elected and then watch his FOX news fanboys act like they loved him all along. Hannity might actually need to be surgically removed after Trump's presidency is over. And that boy worked hard to try to keep Trump from being the Republican candidate. Will Trump win again? Yep. By a landslide. Biden has no shot. He can't even form complete sentences. And he's even creepier than the current guy. The debates are going to be better than anything SNL has ever done.
  23. I have a whole lot of questions about all that. Was this a hit?
