    camera opinions

    went ahead and bought the 850 sw. Took it hiking two weeks ago up The priest mountain on the AT. It poured all day saturday as we slogged up what some reviews call the best climb on the AT. 4.8 miles all up hill.

    The Economy

    Amen Ben This web site is usually one of my escapes. Earlier in this thread the conversation drifted towards an "end of society" senario. Did you ever wonder what role politicians would play in that world? Fertilizer is the only thing that comes to my mind. Funny how folks like us with so...

    The Economy

    Who is richer, the average republican politician or the average democrat? Which party has started more wars? I mean is Bush's Iraq worse than Kennedy's Vietnam? I have little use for any politician. At least the Republicans are more open in their contempt for the average man. The democrats...

    The Economy

    Do you assume that if I don't like Obama that makes me a Republican? That if I am a christian I think Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson are great? I think they are both idiots, theologicaly and politicaly. Does attacking them make Obama's church of hate OK ? I understand, I work with a lot of...

    The Economy

    You like his message? I am surprised to hear that from a wealthy man, do you think "redistributing the wealth" means you will get more? He is talking about your money, you are the wealthy, and he wants to give it to "the less fortunate", meaning those who do not pay taxes. His message is the...

    The Economy

    Do Not Worry "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns...

    Hey Karl, What about hunters? What if there is a fire during shotgun deer season? How will Mommy rescue all of them? If you go into a forest or anywhere else in the world for that matter you assume a certain risk. On your thru hike will you always be able to let someone know where you are...
