An 85 1.8 just isnt telephoto enough to get good details of the lunar surface, here is the best I was able to get.

Lesson Learned

Lesson Learned: Controversy = Traffic. It's kind of disheartening that my brand new #5 or #6 most viewed picture of all time is only popular cause it got linked in the Microsoft Vs. Yahoo sluggout going down, but its also kinda cool to know that if you are at the right spot at the right time, you can get a LOT of exposure.

You know, there's probably nothing I can think of to really add to this, it really stands on its own....

On the other hand, both my Father and I are really big Jackie Gleason fans, and our favorite quote is "When we get home, remind me to smack yo' Momma in the chops, cause there aint no way, and I mean NO WAY, you came from my loins...."

And that kinda fits...

The Pianist

My review of The Pianist is up Here Even if you don't own an HD DVD player (and most of you don't and probably shouldn't) find a way to watch this movie, rent the DVD at least.  I was incredibly moved by it and it really helped to awaken me to a side of the Holocaust that I never really knew too much about.  I cannot possibly imagine what it must have been like to go through that, but I wanted to scream with all of my being for the characters to find some way to resist...

Ryan wasn't the big winner but he did win a few heats with his Spiderman car. He designed it and did a lot of the work, but he had a lot of help from me, Uncle Mike, his dad and even Pappy too. Here's Pappy and Ma'am checking out the car at Ella's baptiism...

Radomes!
