hey man, thanks for the shout out :lol: I'm much less of a "professional" photographer than you or others may think. At least for now and for a while (Fuck my day job, but it pays well and gives me 4 weeks paid vacation, which I use to travel). I mostly shoot concerts & events as one of the several freelance photogs the local alternative weekly paper (The Houston Press) hires. I only get paid $50-$100 for each set of images I submit. Yes, I get to see great concerts, and get paid for my work - but I won't get rich like this. I also just got hired by the entertainment/lifestyle website associated with the Houston Chronicle to shoot at bars/clubs. Again, not the ideal gig, but I could make $100 in 10 minutes twice or 3 times a week. I'm not gonna pass that up. I've been proactive and worked as an assistant for other established photographers here in Houston and around the country. I've worked with a playboy photographer in the US Virgin Islands, and with a famous celebrity photog in Los Angeles. Learn/practice how to speak intelligently and compose a grammatically correct e-mail. I appreciate the comments by Mercer, Earl, and MayorMen. With that being said, this year I'm becoming more involved in my photo projects and building my portfolio, then apply to the Master's program of Photo Journalism @ Univ of Texas in Austin. So do whatever you want man. But always keep shooting and developing your style. If you are good, people will notice.

not free, but good deal: and this magazine offer is legit. I've received 2 issues free already:

:lol:

seriously though, some chicks go crazy for Johnny Cupcake. I know 2 chicks here in HTown that would let me pee in their butts if I wore that cap in their general vicinity. Where could I aquire such a chapeau?

Lars - siempre me inspira ver tus fotos. gracias por el trabajo y honestidad. everyone else - Didn't the pie thing start with DAO and the finger banging, thus a finger pie, then most of the Ch. Zero threads were renamed with a "Pie" reference?

I saw on Mike & Mike that today is National Hat Day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3MFjE1coME http://www.sportsnipe.com/video/1948667/mike-national-hat-day.html

thanks guys. now that I think about it, I used to leave the TV on for him while I was at work, but I just bought a 42inch Plasma 2 weeks ago, so I turn it off now. I bet that's the reason.

I have a 9 month old terrier mix. He has just recently started to chew up my wooden bed posts, coffee table, and an Ikea chair (all wood...NH). :mad: He has 2 rope chew toys, and a few other chew bones. any ideas on how to "fix" this behavior? I don't like to leave him in the crate all day. :(

:lol:
