| 1417389 | 2016-03-12 01:51:00 | A great picture from all angles. Dad's reaction no doubt instinctive. Reminds me of my father catching a bird mid-flight with his hand. It's not something you can do by trying Anyway, welcome back Joe! I seem to remember Hamilton is over a kilometre above sea level - I suppose you have snow lying thick around? |

| 1417390 | 2016-03-12 02:03:00 | This has been a very poor crop of snow this year. We haven't had any measurable snow for a couple of months by now. Here's a video from two days ago: www.youtube.com Notice the ground is snowless. We had two 4-inchers, a few 1-inchers and then a few 'dustings' that amounted to nothing. The local Eskimos all went to Antarctica, looking for a more normal climate. Yeah - Hamilton is about 3000 feet at the lowest and about 4000' at the highest. I'm somewhere at 3200' I think. 5280' is a mile. Here's a small vid of me and two other guys just jamming one night after a party we played: www.youtube.com And here's me on my 1956 Case VM driving in a local parade last summer - right down Main Street in Hamilton: www.youtube.com Some of the action at our local rodeo: i.ytimg.com More later. |

| 1417391 | 2016-03-12 02:11:00 | Lot of fat people there, is that normal? Baseball is the US's largest spectator sport . Lots of beer, hot dogs, nachos and not much exercise . Many 'watchers' are pleasingly plump . Some are downright fat . What a great pix though! I bet someone get's a Pulitzer for it - no? 1 . The timing of the shutter release! 2 . The speed of the shutter! 3 . The ASA of the film! 4 . The steadiness of the photographer! 5 . The ability to just KNOW where a great shot is gonna happen . . . . . and when! Delete #'s 1, 2, 3, 4 if the camera was digital . Still though - a great shot . And check out the field of depth and the focus! Day-um! Great pix! |

I use to follow the Texas Rangers on ESPN, and dirve around With their licenc(s)e plate surround. Purchased from Iowa on eBay. Had to trim the lengths. How can some of those TR players justiy "earning" over 15 million (average slaries) (www.spotrac.com) a year? |
