Yeah for sure. Maybe I will try and start up monthly beer meets again.
Yeah, yeah

Not really interested

You should.

Sadly I work evenings so the beer meets would have to be Saturdays or Sundays :/

Actually, I'll be off this Friday anyone want to meet up at Taco Mac?
Nice. I'm usually around on weekends, just not early...afternoons work best.

+1 on Netflix. I HATE the "movie-going experience"...not only is it a massive rip off, but the other patrons usually suck. Besides, I didn't invest in a really nice HT to go to the movies.

I have 12-24mm. Then the 17-55mm has a little bit of wide angle to it since it but also has a little zoom basically.

Yeah man it's hard to believe. I had PM'd him a few months ago about his old S30 240Z he had for sale, since that's my dad's fav car of all time. If you go to the forums main page, he has a status update where he tells the story of when they were hit.

Crazy stuff.

I didn't even notice the s2000 in the bokeh until a few looks at the photo of his wife. Such a sad scene.

You guys are gonna find out soon because i'm going down to the garage to start doing this damn thang.

I'm concerned the color of this paint won't POP like I want it to, but that's something adobe lightroom will fix.
