That's you bad mouthing the voters. It's not like you're using actual no-no words or anything, but you tear into them like a champ. Jeb gets up a fair head of steam from time to time, but I have you down as the season's favourite with no more bets being taken.
Is that an explanation? The Internet can be useful at times, I found out today what the purpose of the little basket that's supplied with a rice cooker might be.
Edited to add - I really do sympathise - I have also developed a rash of commenters (bless their blind and brainless little heads) who are totally out to lunch. Actually I suspect we're surrounded by such people at any given time. Usually, though, they don't talk to you, especially not about anything that matters.

Well I suppose it is my years of doing collections for a living, and car repo's, that has jaded my view of human intelligence as well as emboldened (is that a word?) me to speak my mind more often. I apologize if that offends you.
I was a bit ticked at your statement to begin with, however you are quite welcome to state whatever opinion of me you have, as long as it is done politely.

Offended? I've taught what I think is known as junior high for ten to fifteen years. I'm being entertained over here. |

And hipychik, looks like it's you against me in Round 1 of the Enzo tournament. Very cool! I'm going to take a picture of bread in a pan then decide which challenge to stick it in based on number of entries, or perhaps the toss of a coin. :) |
Ok...You do that and I'll pan a piece of bread that I toss in the air. This will be fun! :) |
I am thinking of taking a photo of a Bald Eagle, with a tear in his eye that has a bunch of little USA flags reflected in it, soaring through a beautiful Icelandic landscape that has a wonderful sunrise at one end and the Northern Lights at the other end which are shining through some giant wine glasses, while it has a loaf of bread in it's talons.

As you can see my Advertisement is sucking along nicely but at least two of the comments were good and not wtf were you thinking which is what I get most of the time. I'm proud of it, my photos are kind of like children you even have to love the ones that give you a hard time.

Hey guys! Walgreens is running a valentine's special, you get a free family pack of pictures, an 8x10, 2 5x7's and 4 4x6's. That's all from one shot. Enter VALENTINE in the coupon code box. I did this one for my aunt. What do you think of the editing? This is a digital background.

I just discovered that my tai chi master is using a portrait I made for him on his new website. It's a small thing, but it makes me feel good to know that something I made is being used.

Just got home a little while ago, processed this.....and thought, what can I do with this?
Then I saw Deb had a similar morning.
I saw this and just had to stop.

Ernie, my interpretation is Raish is hailing you as a hero of sorts - it's a good thing, fret not.
Nice sky behind your tree, Jeb! I need to find me a tree, but the ones I like all have lots of power lines and towers and stuff off in the distance. And there's no place to park to shoot 'em. I'll keep working on it, though. When it gets to be bike season, I can get to them...
Oh, and congrats, Julianne! That's outstanding! I had someone inquire about using my forklift shot on a webpage, with credit, without compensation. Told him I'd be delighted but have never heard anything back. Still, it was quite nice!
And Kelli, background looks fine, kid looks like he's got a wicked sense of humor at a very young age. I'm sure your aunt will be delighted.

Thank you, Jeffrey, very kind of you to notice :) Of course, Jeffrey ( levyj413), in his humblededness, failed to mention that he has once again gotten an honorable mention in the very same competition. It's only a matter of time until he wins (and it's only because of him that I found out about it, so doubly thanks, Jeffrey).
February's TrustedReviews.com theme is "Food and Drink" . . . maybe there'll be some bread shots there? :)

Of course, the shot is still holding in at 5.4, but hey - it appealed to someone :D
