    Pretty cool camera: The DMC-FZ50 is mine. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50: Digital Photography Review

    Mine is an automatic camera with WAY too many manual adjustments. A close up lens would be cool. I got ripped at the coals for an illegal practice of charging separately for everything in the box. Charger, camera, SD card etc. So, when I looked for the smallest price, I got the highest rip-off.

    I have to look up forced flash and what to use to determine exposure levels. It rarely needs to flash. Sometimes the flash just adds way too much light. My first set of pic, Kodak Easyshare wouldn't print them. They claimed they were professional pictures and I needed a release. It was of a private 2 room Lithuanian museum in a convent. It can take some fantastic pics, but getting the best pic requires some twiddling.

    That's a pretty cool camera too KISS , the reason I got the TZ7 was it's compactness for travelling , but it still has the 12x zoom which is great.

    And "simple" mode is just so... uhmmm... simple :)

    Ya I have seen some recent pic's. Lol. My mother doesn't understand why I like him either.

    I guess it's because I have a passion for film, and I really liked the creativity in his films.

    Can't say I am such a fan of his new stuff, but not liking him personally it doesn't really bother me one way or another.

    I still like his classics. I can watch Annie Hall at least once a month and still get a good laugh out of it.

    OMG Hheath alty cat is so freaking cute! Any pics of Aura?

    Good morning all.

    How is all with you guys?

    I'm [thinking] of adopting a cat from the shelter this weekend. Since Hunter has been gone my house has been cleaner and has smelled cleaner!

    Hmm...

    Aww :(

    I don't know what cat to get, a female or male... do you think one gender [both neutered/spayed] is better with children? My 3 year old girl and she loves to pick up her cats, dress them up, sleep with them, and just love them...

    Hunter was great but we had him since he was a kitten, there are currently only adult cats in the shelter..
    Hmm!

    I've always liked male cats, but I've never had a mean cat. I've found male cats were more affectionate.

    I'm not such a fan of cats anyway. I watched this weird show once about this woman who let her cat walk all over her cupboards and on her pillow, and they sprayed this stuff on her walls and bedding and what not, and it showed all the fecal matter that was all over the place from the cat using the cat box and than jumping on the counters. Ewww.

    Not sure what it was, but it was grosse.

    EWWWW!! Okay... now I'm leaning more towards keeping my house pet free...

    I'm more of a dog person myself but a dog would be a little too much responsibility for me right now, and my landlord won't let me get a dog [screw him].

    They are adorable! I really like Mop!

    Are you going to litter train them? Lol I have never litter trained a cat before :eek: and I've had many cats... okay well 3.. That's not many.

    Do any of you guys watch Nurse Jackie? I love that show!
  • Apr 15, 2010, 10:29 AM

    Edith will do most of the work of litter training them. The rest will just be me cleaning up any accidents and taking them to the litter box if I see them about to go somewhere else. It's not usually that hard, unless you already have a cat that isn't litter trained for them to mimic.

    I've never had a cat who didn't catch on to litter training.

    My friend has a cat that pees all over the house, her place reaks :(

    See see! That's what I'm scared of! People saying "eww Sarah's house reaks"

    I have a bazillion candles, from yankee to glade, haha I would hate for my house to "reak".

    Oooh I found a cat, my friend's mom's friend's daughter [whoo that was a mouthfull] is giving away her [all ready neutered and up to date shot cat]. Look! Isn't he gorgeous!

    I want to name him Felix... or Lucifer. Lol

    Apparently he's good with kids and quite affectionate.

    I'm going to go see him later on today, see how him and Rachel get along.

    She likes to pick up cats, dress 'em, feed them, hold them... she's not mean to them.. she just loves to love them...

    My sister had a cat that grew up with my niece. That poor cat was dragged around by her head, chased with plastic golf clubs, dressed, strapped into baby doll strollers, and just generally man-handled. Never once did she scratch or attack my niece. I think it had a lot to do with the fact that they were 'kittens' together.

    Yes. And I've talked to people on the phone at work, that just irritate me to no end. Sometimes I wish I could just tell people to go away and take their business elsewhere.

    Mmmm, I hear you there. There is this one person I'm dealing with, seems to have everyone fooled, but they aren't what they say they are. And they aren't what they are all cracked up to be, constant inconsistencies.

    It's disturbing to say the least.

    Yes! My friend's [ex]boyfriend, I never met him, and when she introduced me to him I hated him. Well not hate. But he bugged me.

    Well 4 months down the road he hit her and spat on her...

    I know I deserved it. I gave a reddie, and I got one back... Pretty cool how that works.

    I love reddies. Thanks EMO (;
