#2, I've rarely seen pros keep equipment in excellent condition, though I do
my best to check everything before shooting.

#4, yes I always keep about 20 rolls in the bag even if I'm shooting digital

#6, dress well all the time, but in July with humidity at 100% dressing well
does not last long

#9, raisins, great idea. my power bars melt at 100% humidity

#10, I still feel like I suck 50% of the time
