Like someone else posted, I would definitely find a way to handle the major camera brands (Nikon, Canon, Sony) in person.

---

Just know you can get more for your money if you consider other than these brands. Panasonic Lumix has more features for less money.

However, you aren't gonna touch a decent setup regarless of brand without spending at least 3k. The problem is that you need the body (1-3K for any of these cameras) but what you should be spending even more money on is glass: good lenses.

You need multiple lenses. I have 16-24; 70-200; and 100-400. These really cover the basics. All together about 4-5K. A similar Sony setup (arguably the best) is 8-9K.

I have the Lumix S5 mk2x, which has near pro videography and photography.

If you are competing against others for biz, you'll need a good setup. Educate yourself w Youtube.

Let them lay where they fall.

Ain't nobody out here in freakin country gives a shite about lawn trimmings.

I was 100% on board with the strikes on their nuclear facilities 7 months ago, that was a good call, and it should've stopped right there. Iran had made zero progress in recovering their nuclear program after those strikes, there was absolutely zero reason to get into this quagmire.

This is where I'm at. How did he get talked into this?

This is NOT what I voted for.

What to do next? I have no idea. He created this. His ego won't let him back off. What a mess.

First person in my family tree to graduate from college, BS Comp Sci 1989.

Came from a long line of people that lived in the Neutral Strip of La near the Sabine since the 1800s. Oilfield and cornfield trash. I was the only one to venture down south.

Had no affinity for LSU, only reason I went there over FSU was Tandy Computers had a top 5 sales store there I could transfer to. Worked out, within a year was making bank going to school part time.

Wife works three nights a week. I get more done in the shop and sleep better.

Rookie numbers...since like early 2000's for me and the F three fiddy...

Sure...we do a few pool parties a year and a bonfire or two. Have a giant screen to project music videos, sports, what have you.

It's good in that it forces us to clean up, make some improvements, etc. Love the parties.

Your post is misleading.

Thanks to you lame-o’s that don’t show out for day games and leave early anytime the opponent isn’t Top 10, the greatest venue in sports isn’t even #1 anymore.

Great job guys.

He said if we are playing at night, it's the clear number 1 in the sport.

But a different atmosphere with a noon or 2:30 kickoff.

He's right.

Now, is Neyland better in either case? No.

On the other hand, he had Washington and Oregon in the top 10 but not Ohio State or Michigan. So take it for what it's worth.

They were blown away by restaurant portion sizes. They were repulsed by it. They said no wonder everyone is fat around here.

Yep, that's why on the rare occasion my wife and I go to a restaurant we'll share an appetizer and an entre. All that food, just sad.

Oh, and we sit on the same side of a booth (OT hates this).

DC snipers began devolving in my little town, Ashland VA. I was in the YMCA working out the night they came and got a shower, just before they shot the guy at the Ponderosa.

BUT, this one was so senseless and hit home as the Harvey house was right next to the mountain bike path I rode all the time. It felt really weird riding there afterward. Knowing those little girls died like that.

These assholes just walked right into these peoples house on NYD, who were busy prepping their house for a party they held every year.
