@doublesided some of the Panasonic Lumixes have lenses by Leica; if you get him one, get him one of those. Hard to argue with Leica.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 16, 2008 at 8:04:16 AM

wishes he could fall asleep on the train. Sadly, no.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 15, 2008 at 10:17:29 PM

just realized he loaned the feds way too much money this year

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 14, 2008 at 10:16:46 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 12, 2008 at 7:06:27 PM

@feather there is actually a logical 4 that; if their flight last night got in late, they're still required to get 8 hrs sleep.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 12, 2008 at 8:02:14 AM

made the train this morning. Kinda surprised about that after two party nights in a row. May not be at the top of my game today, though

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 11, 2008 at 10:19:04 PM

really really really enjoyed seeing friends from his last job tonight. Walking through pouring rain feeling like a drowned rat, not so much.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 11, 2008 at 7:58:41 AM

actually made the train he would have caught had he not been out until midnight last night and feels pretty good. What am I 25 again?

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 11, 2008 at 12:02:39 AM

is home. Finally. Now I remember why I don't usually stay in the city on a school night.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 10, 2008 at 9:59:57 PM

didn't hate the party, but is glad he left before it was over

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 10, 2008 at 5:23:54 PM

isn't really looking forward to the company Christmas party in an hour.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 10, 2008 at 9:40:03 AM

can't get to his cubicle until the construction guys finish laying carpeting. Oh well, work will have to wait.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 9, 2008 at 8:19:11 PM

isn't getting sick. Really. I mean it. Or else, damnit.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 9, 2008 at 6:55:35 PM

hopes the power comes back before he gets home, or it's going to be a looooong commute tonight.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat December 9, 2008 at 8:15:58 AM

@Suw "unincorporated" in this context means no independent govt, no official status. No mayor, no council, just a name.

@suw yes, a hamlet is a tiny settlement, typically unincorporated. Plenty of them in the area surrounding Poplar Grove, IIRC
