Tongan Connections

Finally my Tongan relatives have paid off .. I received this e-mail .. via Facebook:

I am Richard Pearce, a legal practitioner practicing in the state of Lome in Togo. I am the family attorney to (Dr.G.E.Cram), a national of your country. Dr.G.E.Cram died in an airliner crash that involved the Togo Football Association which occurred on the 4th June 2007.

I have made several attempts to locate any of Dr.G.E.Cram's relatives, all to no avail. I have contacted you to claim the estate of Dr.G.E.Cram valued at US$12.3million since you share the same last name.

Upon receipt of your response i will give you the details of this transaction.

Note that this claim is legitimate.

For full details reply to (richardpearce601@gmail.com).

Have a nice day.

Best Regards,
Richard Pearce(Esq).

I think I'm addicted

I think I've become a camera porn addicted. I never thought I would be one of those guys who carries around a camera bag or God forbid a camera around my neck. I don't know what it is? There's something addicting about getting the perfect shot. I just hit the hundred dollar mark of total money spent on a film SLR camera. The Olympus OM-1 cost me 15 dollars. The flash cost me 10 dollars and the new lens cost me 75 dollars. This is not including film. Film is expensive.

I've decided to purchase a DSLR by this Christmas. Everyone I talk to says go with Canon or Nikon. Certainly there is a lot of quality and technology in both cameras. But as you can see with my sad and pitiful film camera purchases, I don't like to do what everyone else does. That is why I've almost decided to go with the Pentax K-x (white); affectionately called, "The Stormtrooper".

Pentax cameras are completely backward compatible with its lenses. The price of the camera can't be beat and it has most of the features that expensive Canon and Nikon cameras do. It even has Hi-Def video. It has a 12.4 megapixel CMOS image sensor with image stabilization - Anyway there are a whole bunch of reasons really.

What has happened to me? I think it might be old age.
