Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D. My first prime!

But this is a terrible slippery slope that I now find myself on......

Nice. You'll want to look at the 35mm F/2 next.

Son of a......

I've got to learn how to use this lens effectively first. Actually using it at f/1.8 is proving to be quite a test of my still-undeveloped-skills

A real razor:

You call that a razor? This is what I call a razor:

Actually, yeah, I use one like yours, though I have the other one too.

So you decided to go for both T50RP and YH-100? Good move!

Sold some duplicate CDs and bought some new CDs that I had on my wish list

Fond of the Music indeed, sir!

I had to have it. I love mechanical things that are guaranteed to cause

me grief in the future.

Well, at least he made it a link, so I don't have to load the friggin' thing every time I come to this page.

Heh, you guys and your fancy clocks. All I want is a Chelsea Ship's Clock, which unfortunately are insanely expensive for good examples.

I have one of these:

I have a 1940's art deco version. Its in the shop at the moment for a new

bellows and suspension spring. Putting it in the shop created an empty place

that needed to be filled with another clock... estimate 14 week repair time.

They're both gorgeous clocks...if I was into clocks. But the interminable ticking drives me bonkers. I don't mind one in the house, as long as it's not loud.

Or are those the kind that have the fancy pendulum/gear mechanism, so they essentially don't tick? I think I'd like one of those.

But what I really want is a tube clock.

The sea clock cannot be heard unless you are right on top of it. Even then

you would have to listen for it. It beats once every 2 seconds.

The atmos can't be heard at all. It beats once every 15 seconds (i think)

If you want quiet, then get a congreve ball clock

I might just have to do that...

...as soon as the economy recovers.

As far as I can tell the Atmos is silent. I think mine is about 30+ years old.
