  • For trbig, I have gone digital!!!

    I think I embarrased the kids last time I went to Wal-Mart to buy film for my 35mm and drop off 3 exposed rolls (got a deer in the headlight look from the clerk ). They popped for digital camera for my b-day. Having a few problems though, I can't find the auto wind feature for the film and the movie they sent with it won't work in my DVR. I did find out the thing on my computer that I thought was a retractable cup holder is where the "movie" is suppose to go. Also having trouble finding where to set the F-stops but soon as I watch the movie I am sure I will be enlightened. I went to 3 different 7-11's and so far none of them stocked memory chips in the snack aisle but I did find the really hot Doritios, I will try HEB for the memory chips, they have a better selection.

      Good Lord... I used to only be subjected to the Poloroids of him and his wife when we saw each other. At least he SAID it was his wife.. hard to tell from the angles he was shooting. Now he'll be able to share at will.

      BUT.. this will come in handy when I have him go check out another bike for me!

          They aren't. They stopped producing film for them a couple years back. I actually have the camera sitting right here at my desk! Until last fall, SWMBO refused to use my digital. She had her old 35mm camera and took pictures of the students in her classroom all the time. We would go to WalMart to get them developed. The camera finally stopped working, and I convinced her to upgrade to the digital world. Now, she uses it all the time, and even sends pictures to her family, the same day they were taken.

            Congratulations on your next step out of the stone age

            It's really nice not to have all of the rolls of film cluttering the place up... I think...
            We've had a digital camera for years but still have film to be developed from when the kids were in kindergarten (and probably before and it probably isn't good anymore)


            The convenience of a digital can't be beat...

            Good Lord... I used to only be subjected to the Poloroids of him and his wife when we saw each other.

              I wasn't gonna go there, cause, then I'd feel obliged to share the polaroids of SWMBO,
              And, well, that AIN'T gonna happen!

                  I've managed, by no small feat, to keep hold of 3 poloaroids of my lovely wife for 10 years, we've been together 13,
                  She knows I have 'em, now and again she'll find 'em and want to get rid of 'em....but I talk her out of it.....again, no small feat

                  don't tell him I said it but, I'll bet your husband still has a couple, and ain't telling you........
