Finally got Mountain Lion 😛 and while I was at it I also got byword since it was half off, loving ML so far "I can already see the improvements in Safari 😉" (although I use Chrome 😉)
As for ByWord, It's really plain and minimal so hopefully this text editor will keep me on task when ever I'm writing for lengthy periods of time.

Finally got my new tires! I'll take them out for their maden voyage tomorrow morning.

Ah, cool. Imma have to look into this case. I already have an awesome Lowepro sling, but I want something smaller that will fit my camera with lens, and maybe an extra battery.

Thanks for the reply.😎

FYI, I wound up returning this case. Sadly, it does not fit a DSLR with a grip on it 🙁 Assuming you don't have one, the case fits my T3i with 55-250 perfectly. The hammock thing is a little weird but everything fits in their perfectly. Great case to tote around your DSLR. Just wished it would fit mine. Guess I'll keep looking. The side pockets aren't that big however if you're just looking to carry around a battery, filters or maybe some cables, then it should work out just fine.

Don't really have a picture since its transparent, but i got my wrapsol yesterday and got it installed. I love it.

It's not that uncommon. Alot of people, myself included, have all 3 current systems.

aKCLee · Aug 24, 2012

consoles

yeah it's pretty common... i have a Wii as well but never use it so it's still packed away hahaha, sorry Nintendo XD

also the PS3 plays Blurays which the Xbox360 cannot... there are also the odd game franchise that is only on one platform... come to think of it, they are completely different LOL, should not be strange to see them side by side

I don't know where you got the D5100, but they are on sale right now on Amazon for about $650 (which is actually the general price for the camera), but you also save $100 on the 55-200mm lens.

I'm debating one of these for a few different uses in making my own films - Road trips, camping, kayaking, Mountain Biking, etc.

I'm curious as to what you plan on using yours for?

Still a good deal.

Understanding Exposure is a great book for beginners. There's a lot of useful information in there. I still occasionally read parts from it.
