https://youtu.be/RV5WqRnFejIE-6..lol. But I am so done...I don't know why, but I cannot see your ass as an NCO, and if you were I can see a RFC rating. J If you don't know why how could you not see,and what would the RFC rating be I say that being nice. Honestly with the way you prsent yourself, I see you as a toxic leader, and one that the service would have purged long ago. The shit that comes out of your mouth at times would cost you your position. RFC is a Relief For Cause. Aka 'get the fuck out of my NCO Corps' rating. J

Sorry to hear Sean. If we can do anything, just ask. If need be I have some connections with the USF neuro department. J

Funny thing is if you paid for bottled water instead of taking the free water, NA beer was cheaper in Baghdad.JThere is not free water, you pay for it. I know there are exceptions, but 95% of the restaurants have no free choice near my office. Everything is bottled. Flat or with Gas. Beer is cheaper.In my situation there was free water. Pallets of it everywhere.Remember I was in Baghdad on deployment, so I was on base. As such, there was the free pallets of water, or you could buy Dasani, Nestle, etc from the PX. That ran about 2 bucks a 20oz bottle, working out to 12 bucks for a 6 pack as they didn't have case of it for sale at a discounted price. Beer on the other hand was only sold in the NA variety, and was 7-10 bucks for a 6 pack depending on what brew you prefered. i was a Becks Dark or St Paulie's Girl kind of guy. American NA beer did not exist for us.JI was referring to restaurants/bars.Tracking. The on base resturants did not offer anything free either. You COULD bring your bottled water, but damn if your food didn't end up over cooked or take forever.I always attempt to order something as well as a water at resturants (stateside) but I ensure they get tipped very well too.

I take it you also never have drinks that require ice either? Honestly, I cannot blame you. J

I got rid of my 90 Firebird when I moved to FL. As I am growing my hair out right now, it looks as if I have a starter mullet. I need to get the back trimmed up. j

Price was reasonable if it included some luv me long time? With sucky sucky!!.. That can be had for a similar price. Not interested.To put things in perspective though. This is Singapore. A draft beer is $25 at a cheap place. This isn't China. Prices here are the highest pretty much in the world excluding some Arab oil nonsense.I've been to Kuwait, stopped in Saudi Arabia, and passed through Dubai. Beer (when avail) was not even close to that expensive. J

I can certainly agree with that. I have met numerous people who think that the higher the megapixel count, the better the shot. While true to a certain point, there becomes a limit on how long that holds true.JHigher MP is always better..... Unless it's at the cost of other features. And right now you loose so much to chase MP.12 MP is enough for posters.In a studio, higher MP is king if you need to make a billboard. Again, there are limits, are they established in stone? No. But take a oicture on a 18 MP camera and line up against a 28 MP camera's picture with the same hardware, same features, same lens, and time of day, and there is not enough change to warrent the extra 3k. Tell Chase Jarvis.http://www.amazon.com/The-Best-Camera-Thats-With/dp/0321684788Oddly enough, thats the truth. The best camera does you no good if its not on you.JVery aware. Completely not at all the point i was making.I'm sorry for misunderstanding Sean. Could you possibly rephrase so I may understand the point you are making? J

Oddly enough one of my classmates is selling the one she picked up to use while her truck is being fixed. The car was formerly used by a limo shop. 204k on it, and it still looks brand new. J

The 70d is a better buy though. Unless you REALLY need the fps. Noise performance is similar. Autofocus may be better, but I might be old school in using a single point to control my focus. I probably should trust the camera more but I've never been able to before and regularly shoot things that aren't moving or that I want to really focus on which makes 1 pt better.One hell of a camera. I do know from talking to friend who cover the same mediums this is a huge step up from the d700, and I know for using one, that the d700 runs laps around the d3000 I have now. J

http://snapsort.com/compare/Canon-EOS-7D-Mark-II-vs-Nikon-D750 Great notes about the focal points as well as the shutter speed. Sounds like it runs like a raped ape with 20/10 vision. J

Not talking shit, but the Canon community is probably more powerful for info. Stick with what you like/want.Both are awesome. People shoot with both and have great pics. Canon has a better line up right now, but that can change fast. The Canon community is a powerful one, and very knowledgeable. I know a few VERY accomplished photogs who swear by Canon. I also know that they have become the 'Apple' of the camera world. Everybody who loves them swears by them and sees anything else as a paper weight. You and Sean are two exceptions to that rule. I have not used one. Next time I stop and look more in person I will check it out. J

I really need to visit Asia. I loved the cultural experiences (as in cusine, archetecture, and history) in Iraq and Kuwait. I imagine this would be just as enlightening.JFar East >> Middle East After all the pictures I do not doubt this in the least. World economy these days. The grey market shit at B&H are the cheapest I'd buy.I would seriously question that though. I can shoot a good 800 pictures on one charge with the normal battery on my Canon. I can't imagine that a Nikon is that much worse...although with no glass really and needing a body I would have hardcore looked at the Canon's...Canon just doesn't feel right to me. I enjoy my Nikon experince, and have yet to use a Canon I was happy with. Buy the knock off brand. The one at National Camera Exchange is good enough for sure. It's what I use on both of mine. Nat Cam does not have a knock off. I have found a few brands online, but i want as close to the real deal as possible. Especially in terms of strength. J

Also, I have played with the cannon, but I just find Nikon to be more fitting for me. I like Nikon, and the amount of info out there as well as options with them is amazing. J

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Not worried about a battery running out of juice as much as I worry about one shorting out or getting damaged.Unlikely but I shoot for money or favors.It's not my pictures I'm playing with.I've never even read about someone having that issue. So of course that means I've never thought of it. The Roman wedding I did 2500 shots. Would have died at least once if I only had one.I also like the weight when I put the 70-200 on it.The real reason I purchased one the first time is my hands were hard to fit on the little rebelHey now, never said not to buy one just explained that with the new machines if you don't shoot more than 500 shots in a day it is somewhat pointless. I rarelty shoot 40 in a day, lolIts not uncommon for me to hit 500 shots in 3 songs when shooting a concert. Do that for 5 bands in a day, and it adds up. That missed shot can be an opportunity missed for me. Plus having the second shutter button is a plus. J
