Here's wishing a huge Happy Birthday to both Harrison Ford (73) and Sir Patrick Stewart (75.) Many returns!
Now we need Indiana, Han, Captain Picard and Professor X all to meet.

Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.

I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast

One of the best things the BBC has ever done.
So many great scenes, Patrick Stewart was particularly great. Managed to portray so much disdain without actually saying anything.

Imagin the selfies.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Give a man a fire, and you keep him warm for a day. SET a man on fire, and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life...

I took about 15,000 but I kept about 10,000. I'm still working through them and I've been back about 3-4 weeks.Graham Kennedy wrote:How many pictures did you take on your last holiday again?IanKennedy wrote:Just about to take delivery of my new Canon 5Ds camera body.

I have achieved camera-nirvana! 8688x5792 images:

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?
I'm almost scared to see what a full-sized image would be.

I kinda sorta expected to see ants and other insects (if I found them) clear as day at that resolution.IanKennedy wrote:I have achieved camera-nirvana! 8688x5792 images:

I am disappointed in you.

You know, sometimes a good day at work is a pretty damned good pick-me-up for the mood.
