Hmmm.  You ought to use your Rolex to time how long it takes you to write
your name inside your Mephistos with your Mont Blanc after you've had a
couple shots of Talisker.  Then prop the resulting handiwork up on the seat
of your Campagnolo-equipped Cinelli and take a pic of it with your
Hexar^H^H^H^H^HLeica.

Did I mention that I bought a pair of Mephisto shoes in Paris the other week
:-)

What is it with this forum that brings out the worst in people?

First, Mike Johnston, who is a very interesting and knowledgeable
writer, although not omniscient, as he seemed to think, gets in a
pissing contest and makes it clear that he thinks Erwin is a putz, then
jumps ship.

Then Steve Gandy, another stalwart, gets in still another pissing
contest with Erwin. Neither of them has left the field yet, but John
Brownlow, still another very interesting contributor, gets disgusted
with it all and folds his tent.

Good grief. Can we go back to single-malt whiskeys or Rolex watches, or.
. .heaven forbid!. . .talk about photography?
