  1. Enjoy your telephone!
  2. I really love my Fujifilms but I bought both before in-body image stabilization was available. Being an old-school photographer, I’m wired to hold it steady, use something around me to stabilize or a mono/tripod. But I’m kinda tempted to upgrade for IBIS, more mp, better battery, film sims and other stuff. Let’s talk about something else please 😀
  3. I’m not your man for that.
  4. Let me see if I can explain this in terms you might understand 🤪 Enhanced image stabilization is achieved through coordinated control when Canon's RF lenses with optical IS are combined with the EOS R5 C camera's electronic IS when shooting XF-AVC or MP4 formats. With an RF lens that has optical IS and the electronic IS in the EOS R5 C camera, coordinated control helps achieve the optimum hand-shake correction effects. This helps achieve better anti-vibration performance than with conventional IS-equipped EF lenses (using optional Mount Adapter EF-EOS R) and electronic IS together. Back to me talking now: what the he77 is all that about?😀
  5. Better than the excuse given by that scoundrel @ColdWaterFshr and his phony friend!🤪
  6. Just got back from lunch with broom-wielding former bank president not 15 minutes ago! We've been friends for 40 years and counting. Get the work done, do some extra, have some fun too.
  7. Dog? Cat?
  8. Oh, man -- those smiles!!

    What's Cooking?

    Speaking of chili… The missus was over in Independence today and when I got wind I asked her to bring home some Dixon’s chili. Dixon’s has been around for over a hundred years and was a favorite of Harry Truman, and more importantly, my dad. It’s very different. Lightly seasoned beef, kidney beans cooked separately and you order the mix the way you want: meat only, juicy with meat juice (grease), with beans, soupy- with bean juice, over spaghetti or a tamale. There’s no tomato in it. If you want ketchup, there’s a “fine” or extra charge. It’s about how you dress it. I do ketchup and pepper vinegar but they offer diced onion, cheese, etc. To us, it’s the perfect chili dog topping because it’s not too wet. So that’s what we had tonight. Freakin delicious. You’ll have to use your imagination though because there are no pics.
  10. Holy cow that looks good!!
  11. When I was a senior in college I needed one more class for a biology minor so I took Prairie Research. You had to be a senior and have a bunch of prerequisites, and it was known as an easy A. We worked on reestablishing native prairie on a plot of ground south of Lawrence, KS. We cut out trees, planted native grasses, etc. In the spring we were tasked with burning a few acres on the north edge of the tract. Well, the wind picked up and changed direction and we ended up burning something like 90 acres. The five of us, armed only with wet burlap bags, just couldn’t do it. LFD finally got there and got it out. No structures were in immediate danger but it could have been much worse if they hadn’t showed up. The area eventually became The Baker Wetlands, in case anybody here knows where that is.
  12. Happy birfday, Pat!
  13. I didn’t think to say it last night, but he didn’t just last, he later became president of the bank! He left after 30+ years and is now CFO of a global non-profit institution.
  14. We’ve all lasted and, well, done pretty good.
  15. Oh geez. You’d have never lasted 🤪
