Add my voice to those who say they’d like to see your images available for sale.

Also, I got a lot out of the Lensbaby review you wrote some time ago. I am always very keen to read anything you write about photography/equipment/processing/etc.

Finally, despite my initial critical comments, the new design is growing on me.

You give Jon some gum, make it obvious that you are giving Jon gum…then wait for Leta to ask for some gum….Don’t tell her it’s for her ears, just give her the juice/ gum…yawn and hope it makes her yawn, (contagious yawning reaction, some kids have it some don’t….) Don’t give out any unnecessary info. to kids..it gives them the upper hand….and we NEED the upperhand…..cuase somebody’s got to be the adult….*looking around* shit that leaves us, the parents of these spawn…..not ‘these’ literally…but collectively…or figuratively….

Hope you’re all recovered from The Illness.

@Everybody, smaller images should appear in the feed now. Give it a day or two and hopefully it will show up for you.

hi jon! lurker here, de-lurking to say…i love macro! i recently got a new camera (nothing close to the quality of yours, just a small sony cybershot) which has a pretty sweet macro setting and it makes me very very happy.
also de-lurking to say that i’ve read your entire archive and heather’s too over the last two months or so (i admit, i read heather’s first, as she was linked to by a friend of mine, and it took me about three weeks to catch up), and i love (and am slightly addicted to) both of you and want to move to utah to babysit. or dogsit. or both. your stories, pictures, and humor in general make me feel happy inside.

Jon, my friend Marit and I went to The Redwalls concert in Columbus last night. Don’t know if you’ve heard of them, but they are kick-ass! We expected the live show to be somewhat boring, as they are somewhat Beatles-ish but, honestly, it was the best concert I’ve ever been to. I know you and Heather love music and, for the most part I share your tastes, so I wanted to tell you about them. If you feel compelled to do so, you should get their Wall to Wall disc, as well as their DeNova album.

One random bit…While watching their lead guitarist play, we realized he looked quite familiar. We finally determined that he must be the love child of a young, non-bearded Jon Armstrong and a Lloyd Dobler era Jon Cusack. We wanted to steal him and put lock him in the basement. Uncomfortable? Shit! Me too.

BTW - Wish you’d make a list of your current music favs!

Take care!

Being a huge cheapskate, I never took the opportunity to print out any of the so very many digital pics I have on my computer, until this week. I had to go to the pharmacy anyway, so I uploaded them to CVS. I certainly wasn’t expecting awesome quality, but I was a little shocked at how poorly they came out. So my question, for Jon or anyone else for that matter:
Which service, if any, do you use to print digital pictures?
