My gosh you guys are just something else about all this lens crap!!!!!!

Really go out and use the damn cameras instead of crapping on and on about 
some diddly ass lens item that means absolutely nothing if the "CONTENT IS 
MIND BLOWING!!!" READ THAT ONE MORE TIME! MIND BLOWING!!!!!!!!!!!

Nobody is going to be looking at some ass twisted corners if the photo 
content is quite incredible!

Do any of you think Cartier-Bresson or many of the greats of the world using 
Leicas went through all this silliness? No they were all out shooting and 
doing what they loved doing........ taking pictures!!!

For crying out loud get your ass out the door and make exposures and stop 
crapping all over each others twiddly assed whining about one lens or 
another!

It's absolutely amazing how so many of you can babble on about a lens 
because you happened to read some dumb report that was probably Bull shiiiii 
in the first place!

Sometimes you get up in the morning and you open the LUG and it's a classic 
place to start your day, whatever your day maybe! Done it many times in the 
past even on days when I've been shooting assignments! It gives you a shot 
in the arm and you go out the door ready to take on the world of 
photography!

THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Open it just before you go to bed and it becomes a bloody 
nightmare of silliness!

Maybe it's just some of you are coming out of hibernation from the winter 
and haven't had your fix of whatever?

Quite interesting indeed how this place can be so uplifting with 
intelligence, creativity, beauty of photos day after day and you are 
thrilled with the talent!   THEN??????????????????? WHAT THE HECK 
HAPPENED????

Good night all,  see you in the morning. Sweet dreams, watch out for the 
bent cornered LEICA lens hiding under yer bed!!! ;-)

cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
