But he's kinda disappeared from there as he has here. Hopefully everything's okay with Matt.

I hope so too Marc and thank you again for trying!

fwiw, I'm communicating. :redface:-Marc

Don't cut him too much slack. Even a blind squirrel gets a nut now and then.

8.2 - On the Road Again

Just now getting home from work. If I could find the time to set up my new iPhone properly I could've notified y'all a lot earlier with news of camera 8.2 being on the road again (to Chicago). The USPS Priority label number (for tracking) is: 1309 1040 0000 8045 6797. Should reach you, Mr. Rollinger, on Friday 9/16/11. I apologize for keeping the camera 5 days longer than I should have. With camera 6, I hurried my time with the camera and wasn't completely happy with the results. Didn't want to do that this time around. Oh, and after my two shots the counter is on '17'. -Marc

In the words of the great Simon and Garfunkel..

"Where have you gone, Camera 8.1? Apug turns its lonely eyes to you (Woo woo woo)..

What’s that you say, Camera 8.1.. ‘Mattew R’ has left and gone away? (Hey hey hey – hey hey hey)........." :whistling:

Sing along now everyone...

I'm very sure that when we finally find him and camera 8.1 that he will have a perferctly good excuse for this.(see below)


Definition of "excuse"--a lie dressed up in reasons clothing.

A bird was torched in your name tonight. All is right again with Camera 8.2.

Now that Jim actually has the camera all is truly right again with 8.2. We also torched a bird this evening for 8.2s safe arrival. Roasted Amish chicken.

Had a second helping for 8.1. C'monnnn Matt R!

My beloved Yankees are on their way to another playoff season, so I feel like a baseball reference:

Camera 9 (Olympus), who has been warming up in the bullpen, looks about ready to come into the game to make the save.

More later this week...

Ya, but every time he went into action, he went in slo-mo(back ground sound of whatever the hell they used to make that noise, twang with tremolo)last instant switch to real time, and we have a hero. Now to do it for under six million $$$.

Yes. I used to (and still do) think it was strange that in order to give the impression of him running very fast, they showed him running very slowly!

Can't you parachute on your next trip Tim??

I'm working on my transporter but I'm a few years away from a test run yet... and when that works I can hand deliver the camera everywhere - now won't that be easier!

What the h, e, double-two-sticks? He posted on photo.net last night at 8 pm. Is there more than one M.R.?
http://photo.net/classic-cameras-forum/00ZLoJ

Bizarre.. He's had PM's from a bunch of us here and from you over on photo.net and even a postcard from Tim but not a word from him.. And we even threatened him with "The Family"..

Anyone got any bright ideas as to how to reach him in any other way?

Thanks again for the update Marc!
