Sent back the Nissin Di466 flash for 4/3 cameras and bought the Olympus FL-36R flash for the LX5. As for the di466ft, in addition to feeling/looking cheap and not having a swivel mechanism, I couldn't figure out how to consistently get it to work with the LX5. I guess you get what you pay for (the di466 being $60 cheaper than the Oly).

Crucial C300 128GB SSD

I had to do some reading to find the best way to install it (SATA interface, controller, etc.). My computer now feels super snappy and the lack of noise is wonderful. I'm really tempted to buy another one for my laptop, if only the prices could come down a little.

That is beautiful.

Thanks, and this summer I will get it rehandled to hopefully look like this-

That is even more beautiful. Where are you going to have it rehandled?

Marco designs, he specializes Shigefusa knives, not that the tang and handle portions are that much different than other Japanese knives. But gotta keep it within the Shigefusa family I always say.

Beautiful knife, Greg!

Reposting these as a warning that no one should ever buy them. I came home from work to find the box from Zappos (ordered these on Friday) at my door, and was so happy to put them on my feet. They're wonderfully comfortable and cozy except for the cheaply made, hard, knife-like seam running along the length of your toes and slicing into them. Horrible.
