I'm Going to Wear Suspenders

[mreas]

My pants have been falling down lately. A belt just isn't doing the trick. I'm mad as heck and I'm not going to take it anymore. I think I'm going to wear suspenders. Now I know from watching Benny Hill reruns that suspenders means something else "across the pond" but I'm talking about what some might call "braces," elastic straps that are going to keep my pants from falling down.

I had an uncle who looked just like that in profile. No joke! Jana, doesn't colour of the goat on the right look like white paint dropped into wet black ink? -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots. I loved that one. ~Mick

Besides talented artists we also have many great photographers here. I just love the photos. Anyone want to share their camera of choice? My camera LCD just turned into a spider and I'm shopping for a new small travel camera. Thanks! ~Donna

I almost hesitate to reply to that one Donna, because I've been trying to teach someone recently how to use a simple point-and-shoot. The one I have that I've been very happy with is a Nikon Coolpix S6000, which is a simple but versatile machine. I had an old Nikon Coolpix that I used a lot, about 7 years old, it just gave out recently. That was what sold me on the newer model. Whichever type of camera you ultimately choose, I'd recommend looking at the prices on a site called New Egg. They have very fast delivery and the best prices on a lot of technology. My geek husband buys all his computer stuff there. Warning: my sister-in-law tried to save ten bucks and bought from some shyster company in New York, and is fighting to get her money back because they sold her a refurb that they called new, when she paid for the price of a new camera. So check online reviews of sellers before buying anywhere! -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots. I loved that one. ~Mick

I have a Canon Rebel EOS with 250mm lens. An AWESOME camera, but not at all compact. If you're looking for a small travel camera, I'd take a look at the one Karen has. It's priced under $150 and I've been quite impressed with the photos she's taken with it. -- Kathy "You know you're putting a good thing out into the universe when you put on glitter." ~ Drew Barrymore

Yep, me too. I almost (almost, lol) second-guessed the purchase of my DSLR because I use my small one so much. Another tidbit about pocket-size digital cameras: their price varies depending on their colour. So if you don't care what colour you get (and I don't) you can get a better deal on the same camera in different colours. -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots.

As well as checking online reviews of sellers, if possible, pay with Paypal or a credit card that guarantees you will get all of your money back if you should need to return it. Like if you don't read the manual and think the camera is defective. -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots. I loved that one. ~Mick

Sweet Goats! Hey, Doc- I see a poodle running, a bear eating an apple, and the country of Africa and Madagascar on one's head. What does this mean?

[sunshinesketches]

Oh dear... I can see the bear eating the apple. On the neck of the one on the right. I am afraid. Very very afraid! -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots. I loved that one. ~Mick

That's no goat, it's a Rorschach test. And I didn't study for it! -- Show me the one with the cat dancing around in cowboy boots. I loved that one. ~Mick
