Amazing the way you get grain-free images with your "Leica," yet the
images seem to have some, uh, "noise" in the shadows. Hmmmmmm...;-)

Subject: [Leica] What power drill should I buy?


So I'm in Home Depot yesterday, I need a drill because I need to drill
six pilot holes to put hardware on my kitchen cabinets. And I pick up
this $24 corded Royce drill and this guy next to me, covered in drywall
dust with kneepads and goggles around his face, hair sticking out from
his yellow hard hat looks over and says "Buying a drill for your wife?"
I immediately dropped it like it was a spider and grabbed a 36 volt
Hilti TE 6-A Rotary Hammer drill with a $1,059 sticker price, gave him a
"what the hell are you talking about kemosabe?" look and edged sideways
out of the tool corral shouting "hey, I'm building a four room
extension. Last weekend I built a freakin sixty foot SAILBOAT out of
TEAK."

So I drilled my six pilot holes. Thinking I might drill something else
in again in a couple of years if the mood strikes me.

I think this is EXACTLY how I ended up with my leica....

Speaking of which, I posted some new pix, mostly girls:
