Thanks!

Re: Camcorders--questions from a complete idiot

Thanks for the feedback--I have a better understanding now and have an idea of which direction I want to go.

Good to know about the memory cards, and that Flip camera looks like fun!

Thanks!

Camcorders--questions from a complete idiot

Hi friends - I figured if I wanted some feedback on camcorders, this was the place to find it since so many people on C&F have such strong opinions about so many things. Background: My daughter and son-in-law are expecting a little guy in June--my first grandchild :). I want to surprise them wit...

Re: Sunset at the Spiral Jetty

I've never been out to see this--in fact, is it covered by water now? I know it comes and goes over the years according to the lake level. On my "someday I'll....." list.

Re: Hi! Catching up...

Hi Weeks! No party for me in August--I've got a high school reunion (we won't go into which one) in southern Utah towards the end of the summer and that's my trip for the year. Alan, I can't manage to get into the chat room using that mIRC--I recall having to go through all this nonsense the first t...

Sorry to confuse you, Nano. I admit to having something of a ping-pong brain--one word can set it off in all directions!

Re: Hi! Catching up...

Good heavens, Alan--sorry to hear that! Now what'll I tease you about?? Well, that tutu thing is always good for a laugh. Which reminds me of Captain Lark! Moon, I long ago forgot how to get in to the chatroom--I lost the icon that used to take me right there, so if anybody can remind me, I'll try a...

Re: Hi! Catching up...

Hey Emm - I could spend hours on my patio, camera on my lap and glass of wine in hand, watching the birds at the feeders. The little blind finch was always in the company of her dad who continued to feed her (even though the other babies were long gone). She could get thistle seed out of the feeder ...

Hi! Catching up...

Haven't been Chiff-and-Fippling in a long time! This morning I was listening to some CDs I hadn't heard in awhile and it got me thinking about fun old days on C&F and wondering about folks like Dale, Jack, Az, Moon, Alan, Weeks, all the old (and not so old) gang in the chat room (btw, Alan, I lo...

Re: Foot tapping

I think if trying to tap your foot is throwing you off, don't do it. I don't know of any rule that says you have to tap your foot. On the other hand, you could tap as hard as Martin Hayes does and have the sound come through on all your recordings.

Re: Post Those Holiday Quotes Here

Here's one I'm never around to hear: Sister-in-law to my nephew: "Did you remember to invite your aunt Susan?" Nephew: "No." Later when I am around: Sister-in-law to me: "So I asked Dallas, 'Did you remember to invite your aunt Susan?' and he said, 'No.'" Me: Crooked sm...

I thought the same thing, Emm. Amazing story, though.

Phineas Gage (see C&F main page) Comes to Life

Re: "Laundry Products" Whu?

When I think of laundry products, I think of detergent, fabric softener, etc. Maybe you pour in blue detergent but in the machine it looks purple.

I like people who are direction-readers, but you might be carrying it a bit far, Dale.
