Being a smartass always appealed to me more than being a dumbass.π I know. π Lizard would say that it's in Nevada. Should I be offended?

Taken on a Hasselblad I believe. That is a great film camera. A friend had one long ago. I noticed the images on the ground glass were sharper than what I could see even with spectacles.

I noticed the images on the ground glass were sharper than what I could see even with spectacles.Β My friend had one. We went on vacation with him and his wife in 78. It jammed in Carlsbad Caverns, it jammed on top of Shiprock, it jammed on a mountain near White Rock where we were the first to see native carvings in 500 years. Not a fan, but it did provide me with a lot of laughs.

I've actually only ever been to Las Vegas, and only for 7 hours. 5 hours longer than it took for me to lose everything I had.

When folks move to Las Vegas they never want to leave, soon they are so poor that they can't afford to.

That doesn't seem like the best possible news, but maybe it won't come to that. I have a friend who has cysts in one kidney. Enough that it really doesn't even function. But they haven't taken it out.
