Bump THE answer. And yeah, I thought AP classes were only in high school.

I hate bugs, so I don't mind spiders. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I want a lizard.

A lot of Vermont beers are great and most bars have a variety of them on draft. Give me a Sapporo draft and I'll buy the rest of the night.

A very bouncy great dane's paw.

Shhhhh!! Don't let DAO and Ayebee see this!!!!!!! Seriously. Edit: and just don't tell them you're white and you should be fine.

100% You don't say chan like Jackie Chan, it has a long "a" sound like portuguese. I thought 4chan meant channel 4. The karate kid thing is Daniel-san.

Fuck it. And a cow.

So I got some rolls of film back and I'm pretty happy with the results considering this is my first time ever using a manual focus camera.

That's why I'm always ready to power scroll on 12oz. I've missed a lot of nasty.

I think I blanked out for a second. What happened?

My introduction to David Bowie.

Is there any way to get rid of the ferret smell? I've always wanted one, but the smell was enough to keep me away.

I don't speak hip hop.

Yeah. I did, but I thought someone might answer me sooner on here. So now I'm confused as if I'll need a T-mount adapter or a T2-mount adapter.

I dunno if this counts, but I've been listening to Douglas Adams' Mostly Harmless while driving.

Damn copycats. http://www.12ozprophet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=129337

My great-aunt's village is having a sorta village wide yard sale thing, meaning most people will set up a yard sale on their yard on the same weekend, and I was helping her move stuff and I found a camera she was going to be selling. Of course I asked for it, and she was nice enough to give it to me. So now I have a Minolta XG1 35mm camera with a minolta 135mm 1:35 lens and a petri 55mm 1:1.8 lens. The petri lens doesn't connect, so I'm wondering if there would be an adapter for it? Anyways, I'm very, very happy. Edit: the mount is a Minolta MD mount.

Muffin tops are pretty old, but are there any cupcake top bakeries?

Whenever I'm browsing I always seem to be drawn to the Steinbeck books for some unknown reason.

I've been reading a lot because I've been feeling illiterate lately. I've gotten a good chunk into the Ender series, but I'm waiting on the local book store to get Ender in Exile so I can read them in order. Yes, there is an Ender series. While I'm waiting I've read Jurassic Park for the first time and have just started The Lost World. I'm hoping for more dinosaurs in this one.

I think it's been proven many times you can never win anything on the internet. Proof: See DAO's posts on 12oz if you haven't blocked him already. Since I've only been complimented on one photo, I'm guessing my photos aren't very good? Truthfully, I'd be happy with mediocre, since I got my first digital, non-disposable camera about 6 months ago. Not that that's an excuse, but I'm pretty ignorant with things with a lot of options and settings. I'm waiting until my aunt visits so I can finally try a manual focus camera.

I modeled full-time in Japan for just under three years. And by full time I mean 3-5 jobs a week and making enough to live and save money. I wasn't trying to pull your card by asking their names, I know a lot of Japanese models so I was wondering if I knew them. I agree that most fashion photos are boring, but I just disagreed that models were stupid. Some are and fit the Zoolander model perfectly, but there are many nice people in fashion.

Just because you live in NYC doesn't mean you meet and talk to models everyday. Most fashion photographers aren't really interested in fashion, they like taking photos and fashion is where the money (and benefits) are. Most top photographers are very capable of taking natural photos too. And making the cover of a magazine isn't that big of a deal. There are many, many magazines and a new cover each month. Just because your friend dated one for two years doesn't make you an expert on models. What were the Japanese models' names btw?

Even though THUD edited tootsie's post, she's right. I met a couple (about 5) who were waiting on their master or doctorate degrees and were taking the time off to make some money.
