RFF LULU BOOK 2, BY FED Hey Frank, I found this poo about RFF’s second book. Joe Friday (Brett Solberg) was in charge of the design for book 2. On March 30, 2006 he posted this: "just to let everyone know, I've been working on fixing the printing issue for the several days. I've determined that the file that Lulu is using is perfectly fine.. the issue is definitely caused by their printing procedure.. I have informed them that we are all dissatisfied with the print quality, and told them they need to fix it and send out replacement copies to those who have placed orders so far." (Thanks, FED.) http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21063 On March 30, 2006 kbg2 wrote: "FYI - Received my book today. Black and white images have a slight magenta cast."
On June 19th gooOh wrote: "So whatever was the outcome with Lulu about this 2nd book? Was it ever resolved? Any chance of it ever being resolved, or is this as good as it gets with Lulu?" Brett Solberg responds: "I purchased a copy a few weeks ago, and while the printing was done improperly (and one of my photos was affected), it wasn't such a grevous error that anyone outside of our group would likely notice, or at least be bothered by so, the final word is that it's not going to be 'fixed'.. but if you really hate the copy that you get, you can either demand a reprint or your money back." On July 13 Solberg writes: "Did I mention that Lulu really sucks?... it's possible the PDF file got corrupted.. that does happen from time to time for no reason at all.. they claim they'll check it out and get back to me soon. I'll try and contact them to see if they need a new copy of the file.. it's 'only' 850 megs, so it should upload easily in, say, 6 hours." Bill Mattocks - William Mattocks gooOh writes: "there was indeed a very, very faint 'pinkish' cast to some of the black and white photos."
On June 3rd, 2007 Schitrowsky started a thread entitled "re-order RFF book #2 from quality printer." If 100 GASbags promise to buy a copy, Joe Friday can have it reprinted by a "quality printer." Keep in mind that the first book was printed by Loo Loo with no problems. Perhaps the file for the first book was under 800 mB. Six weeks later, Schitrowsky only has 77 orders! rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42117 Maybe Schitrowsky can ask Castlemore School to buy 23 copies for their Special Ed program.
WHAT HAS EVERYBODY BEEN UP TO THESE DAYS? Moe, being slow on the draw, just realized that his photos are crap for the 100th time. So, you will soon see this Edmonton GASbag buying more gear. Eriic Milner, the stupid Canadian formally of England, is still screwing the young wannabe Vancouver acting tarts, and being a whack-job.in-between. And Daddy should be dead soon so that he get his fishing reels and property. Herr Hett, the whack-job German, is still poking the black chicks, and plans on getting more fresh black pussy from Cuba. Someone should arrest him. Gassy has been busy selling Cosina crap. Trevor Hare, the tiny English troll, has been busy trolling the Flickr film forums, even though he shoots digitally. MORE TROLLING Lord (Roger) Hicks decides to do some trolling and suggests that he should start Arsebook. A few days later he posts this: The first post was nuked by moderator Doug. Mo' Doug then calls him a troll and in retaliation the Lord starts Arsebook on Flickr... appointing your poomeister as moderator. BILLY BUTTOCKS IS BACK Cleveland steamer queen hasn't posted under his legal name since 02-14-2010. Now he's back out of hiding. Why? Does he think the members have forgotten his vile and scatological material? What a loser. He could be a stupid Canadian like Milner except that he's living on the wrong side of the border. NOBODY CARES Shitrowsky writes: "No one outside of RFF understands what I'm talking about or cares." So sad. rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=caed6149a0a25b50adbebf43ec188367&t=108513 WHY DID THE CRAPPY NEW NOKTON 35MM GET REPLACED? When the big wave attacked Japan, Coz's 35mm Nokton facility got destroyed. So the GASbags are paying twice the price for the new 35mm version to cover the cost of the damage. Gassy knows this, so does Moe, but they are on the payroll and won't say. THE CRAPPY NEW NOKTON 35MM (VERSION 2) Official announcement of Nokton 35mm F1.2 Aspherical VM II is here: And here: Backdoor alley (Joe) tells Christopher, the fine Art Photographer, Christopher replies, "Joe, you have no right to call me an ass." IT"S ALL BUSINESS SO STOMP ON THE TRUTH SAYERS On that same thread Mister E (Nate) got banned for clashing with Stephen Gassy's new and improved Nokton 35 toy. Nate was a helpful and decent guy who used to send freebies to RFF members from Japan. But it seems that calling on Gassy's new and improved crap and at triple the price didn't go over well with Gassy and his shills.

Moe gets angry because he does this all the time. Moe writes, "roger, you are just an old judgmental fart looking to troll the hiways of the internet." Shocked, Lord Hicks asks Moe, "Are you saying, then, that you did intend to insult me? If so, as I said before, it strikes me as strange behaviour for a moderator."

PHOTOMOOF DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE NUTS On the now locked "Fear and Loathing" thread photomoof quotes the member, Attwo, and then writes, I AM THE STRAW THAT STIRS THE DRINK The lord of Aquitaine tries to defend himself again with a "Leicaphilia" thread.

Lord Hicks insisted that the Leica photographer must carry at least 2 cameras at all times thus unwittingly supporting Blanco Dos's premise. The last post was really stupid. The lord wrote: "I don't think a single professional would agree with you. If you don't want to take a professional view, that's fine too. You're not a professional. If you don't like the word 'serious', use a different form of words: 'how important it is to you to get the picture?' I still can't help feeling it's a LOT more important to me (or to Tom) than to most people." The irony in his last word is that neither of them, he and Tom, make a living as photographers and their photos suck. ANOTHER DEAD CAT Gassy writes, "Mr. B - A friend is gone."

Immediately the 340# mod (& gear-head) shoots, "can I ask why you would post this in the digital m8 section?" The 340# gear-head would have been very happy living in Nazi Germany as a Gestapo but in reality he would have been banished to Stalag 13 as Schultz, chewing sauerkraut, and being outsmarted by Colonel Klink. http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1383643 "EDMONTON POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING A STRING OF CAT DEATHS"

In his Flickr photos he looks like he weighs 425 pounds. GASBAG #2 Another poor gasbag starts a similar thread to Moe's anti-GAS babble: He ("Pirate") writes, "No more Cameras! I'm done! Finished buying!." Then FrankS(chitrowsky) (GASbag #2), plops a photo of his gear collection---7 shelves full of well fondled cameras. It's a pity the C-rated 4th grade teacher gets through only 2 or 3 rolls of film a year. In his signature Frank has a link to his RFF gallery. LOL. Just 9 photos from his great European trip in 2008. Maybe #2 was too busy getting plastered with his buddy to bother snapping; and now that teach sends his daughter to France twice yearly---for only the lord knows why---they're even better buds. AN E-MAIL FROM A MEMBER "Hey Frank, your observations about Lord Hicks are interesting because when I saw that post the other night I was actually thinking...'You're losing it mate!' I suspect that the lord probably got a message from a mod suggesting he delete his thread before he made a complete fool of himself. Some of these irrational ramblings are alcohol fueled for sure...he's in danger of becoming RFF's crazy old uncle!" PARANOIA The lord's been edgy lately and it looks like he's heading for a nervous breakdown. We have already seen the manic and depressive sides of his bi-polar disorder and now paranoia is setting in. The slightest remark is taken as an attack on Leica and on himself. He's made many weird posts and started some really weird threads; and couple of days ago he started one called "Snobs and fondlers" where he claimed all Leica owners use their cameras. Then after 17 posts the lord decided that the thread was a bad idea and deleted it. We at the poo believe his lordship needs to adopt another bint for diddling but none of his buds are keen on giving up a teenage daughter. Thread highlights: Rangefinderforum.com (http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/index.php) If anyone wants a copy of the thread e-mail your poomeister.

( http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91503 ) 2 hours prior Bill Pierce started a thread too about Chris Weeks---"one of the field testers of the M9." It seems that Leica is in trouble again and hired Lord Hicks to shill the shit out of the M9. tlitody = Lord Hicks---the old GASbag who was poking a 15-year-old cause it's legal in France. MR "LARGE & IN-CHARGE" IS UP TO 25,155 POSTS! On that same M9/Chris Weeks thread moe dumps, "i should sell it all and buy an m9 with that 35...that would be going back to basics...very expensive basics. i like chris's work and his writing also." The GASbags then dump on Chris's writing style. FrankS (mod & #2 GASbag) writes that Chris's "uber-cool site" was his "less than positive intro to Chris Weeks." Christopher Burgess adds, SCHITROWSKY EXERCISES HIS NEW MOD POWERS The Castlemore madman (and grade 4 teacher) keeps deleting the GASbags' posts. Not only that, the madman has banished numerous others. Take for example the member, r2d2. One morning after his coffee r2d2 attempts to log on only to find out he's been locked out. Then he notices that all his gallery photos were deleted with no reason given. I bet that FrankS(chitrowsky) can't wait until Moe quits or better, kicks, so that he can take over the #1 GASbag position; but first he will have to gain another 40 pounds to qualify. "WHY RICCIS WENT BACK TO FILM" "Why Riccis went back to film," kshapero's dumps, "check his photos and work at: plus a good guy" Writing like moe, dan_sutton adds, "if that shot of the beach is from bermuda, then i'm pretty sure two of my buddies were there shooting their leicas with him." http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90875 SUDDENLY, RICCIS APPEARS In post #13 Riccis writes, "Just noticed this thread, wow...

Of course half of this count consists of booted members and those who have retired---tired of the nonsense, shilling and in-fighting---and the dead. The other half consists of a few GASbags (and gear-heads) with multiple accounts. Compare the quality of I shoot Film with 42,365 members.

MAKING FUN OF THE LORD & HIS "ELITIST" M8 Thread starter, Kev (Ming Rider), asks "If the M8 had been the worlds 1st Digital Camera" would it be viewed as a "Technological marvel or flawed wannabe?" His Lordship responds: "It would still have been overpriced, elitist and useless. Just ask anybody who never owned one." (Post #2) Kev asks him, "It's been bugging me for ages. Are you `the` Roger Hicks of Amateur Photographer Column fame?" His lordship doesn't reply so "ZeissFan" jumps in. "Yes, that's the same Roger Hicks. And his wife is Frances, also an excellent writer and photographer. Roger and Frances have authored a number of photography books." The thread then takes off with numerous members pooh-poohing the lord and his elitist M8. MOE BULLIES ANOTHER MEMBER The member writes, "I have asked Stephen to delete my account--a request that I hope he honors sometime soon. I will not go into specifics but suffice it to say that due to recent problems between myself and a particular moderator, I have chosen to leave RFF for good." PITXU IMMORTALIZED http://www.flickr.com/photos/46973922@N03 IT'S ABOUT THE GEAR moe asks, "are you still having any fun with your photography?" (Obviously the gear-head is not.)

Whenever moe's blood sugar is out of whack he starts feeling sorry for himself. MORE BULLSHIT FROM THE LORD Under a pseudo Lord Hicks drivels, "In the past few years I've gone through several rangefinders," and lists numerous cameras.
Then he declares, "I almost decided never to get a Leica, just to be 'ironic.' Until yesterday" ... "And so I've joined the CULT! First impressions - the camera's as good as the say it is. It's pleasure to hold and shoot. Sits perfectly in my hands and the shutter is probably the softest I've ever used/heard in 35mm camera." ... "I'm not a collector, I'm a shooter." Pablito jumps in and writes, "No doubt your photos will improve dramatically." THE LORD ATTACKS RUBY! Teenage girls are easily manipulated and seduced and that is why the English GASbag prefers them. He is still crazy over his tart, Adita, but as she ages we hear less and less of her. The lord's problem is typical of weak men: intimidated by women. Perhaps they remind him of his "bitch" ex-wife and therefore hates them. Last week he lashed out at Philly, a housewife with young children. This week Ruby is on the guillotine. Ruby asks, "I see so much stupidity and BS in the off topic threads. Shouldn't we be talking photography (and gear)?" The lord immediately dumps: "if you do contribute, some of what you say may be stupidity and BS." She is one step ahead, however, and throws: "I read that you once left RFF in shame before being banned for contributing your stupidity and BS in an off topic thread." $23,800 PLUS SOME CHANGE Hey Frank, did you ever wonder what RFF is REALLY worth? Peekstats.com says it's only worth $23,840.90, that's three M9's and a couple of CV lenses! CREEPY POEMS BY JOE RIZZUTO Here's a poem he wrote about his attraction to a teenage streetwalker.

He likes to pretend that a cigar is a penis before he smokes it. He enjoys revenge better than sex. He wanted to kill for revenge back in 1996. Did he? ON SUICIDE & MARRYING THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER Lord Hicks writes, "If I thought I'd never do anything new again that I'd enjoy, I'd find it hard to rule out immediate suicide." He continues, "If I were 20 I'd have asked my 'adopted daughter' Aditi to marry me by now, and I'd have tried very hard to get her into bed. But I'm not, and I haven't. I'm 60 next birthday and I've got Frances and I've got the most wonderful daughter in the world. (All loving fathers say that, including adoptive ones.)" ANOTHER E-MAIL FROM MOE "frank didn't you run, crying like a little girl, when eric came by your place?" MAD MOD MOE FED writes, THE LORD ATTACKS HOUSEWIFE, PHILLY In that "Art vs Equipment" thread where the OP plops that "In this man's hands a cardboard camera is a better tool than a Leica." the GASbags go on the attack. They call the artist a stalker, creep and weirdo. His lordship falls in but instead of name calling he uses his proven brag & dump tactic. Losing it his lordship resorts to name calling like a true GASbag. "Well, Philly, I don't use equipment I can't afford, so there's quite a lot of kit I can't afford. Do you buy cameras you can't afford? If you do, you're a fool." Philly redirects. "Well already owning Leica MP, M8, M8.2 and M9 I'm not sure what else you lack and would it make you a better artist if you had it?" Then Humphrey writes, "Hicks, you can sure write a good third-rate photo guide for small-time publishers, but there isn't a single good photo on your website. You've got a tin eye. You can own every weirdo camera ever made in Germany and you still wouldn't be able to shoot anything memorable like Petronio or a few other photographers here." MOE MAKES A DEATH THREAT "it is time. i am coming to vancouver to put an end to this nonsense once and for all. enjoy your last few days of living." THE SAGA OF THE BESSA CRANK The rewind cranks seem to be breaking like toothpicks: "The rewind crank on my R4A (the same or similar crank to that on the R2A) seems kind of flimsy" Ken writes. Cameraqueerest doesn't have any in stock but can order them for $125 a pop. MOE E-MAILS YOUR POOMEISTER "why? Moe wants to blame the Jew. THE LORD AT PLAY In his thread (What is a "rangefinder"?) Martyn describes himself as "a UK-based editor who occasionally works on books about photographers and photography." One immediately becomes suspect, however. The writing style suggests he is no more than a C-rated grade school flunky and with nothing better to do. The lord is mysteriously absent in the thread but makes an appearance in post #43, bragging about his "Rangefinder Book" (with the missing hyphen and in a strikingly similar writing style with the "UK-based editor"). http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87471 WHO IS INFOSECGEEK? He writes, CAMERA MENTOR OR FONDLER? In Billy's copied Noktor 50mm f/0.95 lens article Ruby asks, "What is a 'Camera Mentor?'" Then in post #5 Ruby asks, "You one of them 'fondlers?'" Billy replies, "I like to fondle." BACK-STABBING MR. BUTTOCKS pakeha asks, "so where is Bill Mattocks then?" The member, "Ade-oh," quotes the webmaster and dumps, "Not really, dull obsessives are everywhere." photogdave sums up with: "He copies text from other blogs and websites that he links to later, and puts his own byline on the 'story.' This site masquerades as an authentic source of information with a credited reporter writing articles but it feels downright fraudulent. Moe (Billy's friend) then locks the thread and goes back to fondling his gear. FRED SAYS HE'S ROGER AND RICHARD nikonhswebmaster writes, When comparing the writing styles and subject matter of these 4 clowns, and we know that Roger actually does exist, only 1 conclusion can be drawn. Roger suffers from multiple personality disorder. TIT FOR TAT - TAKE 2 "Where in the world is Roger Hicks?" asks the member, oftheherd. "Hadn't seen Mr. Hicks post lately, and his profile says he hasn't posted for several days. Does anyone know if he is just taking a break from us?" Philly writes, "Roger has a column in AP dated today in which he clearly takes a shot at Bill Mattocks, who himself has not posted here for over two weeks." rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86896 GANDY CRACKS A JOKE The famous American camera expert, Stephen Gandy, has only a tiny blurb about Konica SLRs. He writes: WHERE'S THAT STINKER? Billy Buttocks hasn't posted in over a week. In one of his last posts he wrote: WHAT RFF IS ABOUT Bob (aka, moe) writes, "it was sexist and offensive. i'm glad it was deleted." Chriscrawdaddyphoto: the male members "acted like they were in a titty bar." In post #18 CameraQueerest dumps a load on the cabbage heads. So what is RFF about? His most trusted mod turns invisible and then hangs out at bus stops and school playgrounds to photograph children; his "forum software engineer" shoots butts of young women; his lord mentor brags about having regular sex with an underage girl. Then we have Camera Queerest himself asking for donations to shell out his buddy from the slammer for overdosing his (very) young drug addicted lover and then having anal sex with her corpse, not once but twice. FOLLOWING THE BOUNCING BOOBS Check out APLUG... it is BRIMming with great ideas. And, follow the bouncing boobs and you'll end up at "big 'uns"... isn't that what Al Bundy called Big Ideas and Large Format Fotography? Steph's "crazy" "possible project"..."So...how crazy am I?;" POOPIE SAYS: It probably isn't nice to pick fun at the expense of the needy...but that chick is amazing how she "works the room" and gets every horny guy to give her stuff whenever she has a "bright idea," then she produces nothing in return. The part I laughed at the most is when she posted at APUG, "I found what I need (or want?) so now I'm going over to LFPF"...and then went to LFPF and asked for the same stuff. I guess she's cleaned out RFF and found out that APUGers are a bunch of tightwads, so now she's cleaning out LFPF. An amazing talent! CHASING THE RAINBOW Moe buys yet another lens, this time a Leica. "the elmar has landed..." he cries. The 340# moderator continues, IS HIS LORDSHIP RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS? Lord Hicks asks, "What do you want in a magazine?" What he means, really, is what do his worshipers want to see from him in print. Continuing, he brags: "It strikes me that writing about equipment is easiest of all. After that, what is there?" The thread takes off but Nikonmeister Fred starts to argue and it quickly spirals into a pissing contest. The lord gets very angry but soon backs down, knowing that he is beaten. He then grabs his jug of wine, turns on Tele-Tubbies and reclines into his Lazy Boy. After several good swigs, and a whack or two, he begins reminiscing about Adita and falls asleep. The thread can be found HERE: http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=141 MOE'S PHOTOS SUCK The member, gho, of Berlin asks, "What do the photos you take tell about yourself?" Mod' moe replies, "my photos tell me not to quit my day job." SKIPPING RECORD MODE Why is the lord bragging about his 19 year lover again? He comes across as an old pervert---and pedophile when Adita was only 15. Perhaps he's suffering from micro-strokes or hitting the bottle big time. It's obvious he's mentally ill and crying for help. However, the GASbags don't care because half of them are just as sick. CURMUDGEON SAN'S "CAMERA CORNER" #2 GASbag (& 4th grade teacher), FrankS(chitrowsky), decides it's time to brag about his camera collection; so a new thread is in order. He tells the GASbags that he's "fortunate to have a spare bedroom" which he uses as both a darkroom and camera museum. 2 photos are proudly uploaded followed with a description of which cameras are where: In Post #3 the member, Pablito, writes his cameras are "Nowhere near the darkroom... Darkroom sees a lot of water & chemicals, a hostile environment for cameras." WHY BILLY PREFERS POOP-SHOOTING SO WHY DOES BILLY PREFER POOP-SHOOTING AGAIN? Philly pissed off Billy so Billy took down some videos he had on YouTube. Billy hasn't posted since. RAID ATTEMPTS TO REVIVE AN OLD THREAD On November 3, 2009, the member, aboudd, uploads a pic of a naked chick with her legs cracked open and writes: "I'm in (not me personally)" On Feb 12, 2010 Raid attempts to revive his porn thread writing, "Excellent images being posted here. Let's revitalize this wonderful thread. Thanks." Raid is a professor of mathematics, he is married and has 2 young teenage daughters. Is he not getting sex at home or is he a pervert? Suddenly the thread takes a turn. Philly and Mabel get horny and want to see Raid's ass Philly: "Yeah Raid! How about some pictures of you. How about some hunky guys with nice abs and cute buns?" Big bad moe immediately deletes some of the posts to save the pervert's ass for himself. THE GASBAGS DISCUSS PHOTOGRAPHING CHILDREN Ming Rider starts a thread asking, "How do you feel about photographing children in the modern world" and then adds: "Maybe it's lack of confidence/paranoia on my part?" "i generally don't photograph kids any longer. it's a shame really..." moe whines. A while back he deleted all his kiddie shots for fear the authorities were on to him. Then Lord Hicks jumps in and dumps: "No-one is obliged to give in to a small number of the hard of thinking. So I don't." Finally Brian calls a spade a spade: "Maybe you guys just come across as perverts." DEAR ROGER Dear Roger, "Dear Terry, I'll look forward to it. Don't hold your breath, though: Frances has no US passport at the moment." Love Roger. RFF: RUSSIAN FINDER FORUM Hey Frank, FRANCES 42.58% OF THE GASBAGS PREFER LEICA FRANCES PUTS HUBBY ON SUICIDE WATCH Lord Hicks writes, "We're all going to DIE." http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85870 THE BIMBO GETS BANNED AGAIN Jenni Macaulay-Jones, who also calls herself the "wee Scottish bimbo," is now banned from the FL Flickr group. The group admin (Mr Speedlight) writes, "saw a whole line of red 'Ban' links. Well I thought that Flickr had messed up and banned everyone in the group. I proceeded to click on 'Remove' and then confirmed thinking I was removing the ban." He then adds, "I'm quite sure I deleted jenni.macaulayjones." 42.58% OF THE GASBAGS PREFER LEICA On the latest RFF poll, "Which RF camera members use," 42.58% say, Leica! PITXU'S MEMORIAL ON FLICKR The GASbags found the Pitxu memorial on flickr flickr.com/photos/46973922@N03 where many of Pitxu's fine art photos are displayed. Missing are the wildly popular buttocks shot and penis portrait which the gasbags so love. Even Moe had expressed astonishment. Lord Hicks too---popped a blue pill and attacked Fran's fanny. (Adita was already gone and working in a foreign massage spa for the rich and wrinkly.) The photo-stream belongs to "Aita Maitea" who could be one of Pitxu's fan boys---or is it Pitxu himself posting from beyond the grave? BESSA FREE AT LAST! The poomeister's very last Bessa R3A, coupled with the 'cron 40, is now gone. His hands are washed; he is clean. How did he get sucked in? Seriously, a $10 used Yashica ELECTRO GSN or a $10 used Konica AUTO S2 will save you a THOUSAND DOLLARS or more. Their coupled lenses are a way better than any of that new crap. FROM CHAIRS TO CHICKENS The tranny, mabelsound, announces that for 1010 he will start shooting chickens instead of chairs. Somewhat rattled, the 340# moderator writes, "you know theres a flickr group for empty chairs eh?" Link MOE'S BECOME A REAL PEST AGAIN Lucky Dave picked up a pristine Hexanon 40/1.8 and a Konica FT1 body "for a song." This Hex' lens was touted as the best 40mm lens ever made. Suddenly the 340# moderator, Moe, shows up to rain on Dave's parade. Moe plops: "when i was using the cle i had all 3 lenses, 28,40,90...seemed a near perfect kit." Link "ARSEHOLES" Lord Hicks brags that he's been renting himself out for £1000 per day. "Probably more for arseholes," his worship adds. Then he writes that he'd do it "for free for the Tibetan Government in Exile." Link MEMPHIS'S THREAT Hey Frank, Netcraft says that RFF uses Spry Hosting. If you wanted to report Memphis's death threat, you could send a screen cap here: IT'S A BIG INTERNET "Its a big internet," Stephen Gassy of Cameraqueerest cries. Then he asks the GASbags: "How many good alternatives to Ebay are there?" Actually, Craig's List. And it's free. LORD HICKS RECOMMENDS BUBBLE-WRAP Confused about how to package all his camera gear for a 2000 km move by car Michael asks the GASbags. The lord immediately jumps in and suggests "bubble wrap" and "an extra lock (or even two) on the trunk." CURMUDGEON SAN IS SURPRISED The 4th grade teacher, FrankS(chitrowsky), is surprised that "some photographers do not consider/appreciate the visual effect of limitied DOF." Then he dumps, "limited and selective DOF is a powerful tool for focusing a viewer's attention to where one wants." Gumby asks him, "Do you really need an answer to this question, or are you having one of those 'fragile days' and need some emotional support?" Trius adds, "I often wonder if it is used to cover up sloppy/bad composition." WHAT KILLED AL? A few days before his heart attack Al got a clean bill of heath from his doctor. On December 9, 2009 he posted "Message On A Bottle" with a photo of his Viagra prescription. SCREWED UP In an effort to protect the GASbags from humourous commentary on the stupid things they post, the RFF mods got the threads all screwed up. Jmkelly wrote, "Frank G screwing around? The other day when I clicked on the button to post a reply to the thread, it took me straight to 'photop**.' Cleared up later. Nice. If he is, mods should report him to the FBI." YAHOO FOR GASBAGS Hey Frank, In the sticky thread, "Why would someone be banned or removed from the forum?" The GASbags need to try http://www.THErangefinderforum.com ROGER HICKS DANCES ON PITXU'S GRAVE On that long RIP thread for Pitxu the lord continues spewing his hate. First the member, digitalintrigue, writes this about Pitxu: This gives Lord Hicks the opening he was looking for and dumps: Fred (nikonhswebmaster) then quotes the lord and writes: There's also a RIP Pitxu thread here. PITXU IS DEAD! How did he die? His hip was shattered during the Falklands War and since then he's needed maintenance surgery. There are metal plates, nuts and bolts in there, kinda like a Borg. Before each operation he has to give lots of blood which is frozen and kept for the operation. On Dec 7 Pitxu went in for his 7th scheduled "maintenance job" and it went terribly wrong. He had massive blood loss which starved the brain and he never regained consciousness. Sadly, he was declared brain dead and taken off the respirator on Dec 31. RIP!
