I keep thinking you're going to mention a Leica, Gary, but you're not Leica Gary.

I've had Lecias. A pair of motorized M4's. They were fun.

I was right, apparently. They're nice cameras, that's for sure, but I'm a medium format snob.

Don't have them now. Sorta lost them in '82 I believe.

Santomas Big Red. It's a Slovenian wine. My bf's father imports it, along with some others.
Gary, if you're interested, this is kinda sorta his competitor distributor - I think they eventually agreed to just keep to their own coasts - but you can get some yummy delish wines here: Blue Danube Wine

I will check them out. Thanks.

I looked at their selection of Slovenian wines. I haven't tried the Kabaj or Stoka but the Batic reds are very nice. I've had the Kogl Ranina and the Crnko Yellow Muscat. They're interesting. Ranina is lighter and refreshing and the Yellow Muscat is a bit sweeter with an edge, chewy.

Not really into Eastern European stuff. Really have gone east of Austria and Germany. This should be fun.

Good, because the other Gary would be pissed that I use a Nikon F.

If your BF imports them also ... I'd rather get some from him.

My oldest son played the trumpet for a while in middle and high school.
My youngest son played the clarinet.

He wanted to play the drums. But he called me the day they did auditions and said, "Hey Mom guess what I learned today?"
I said "What?"
He said, "I can't carry a tune in a bucket, and I also can't swing the bucket in the right rhythm."

"Ah." I said. "So, you inherited your mother's musical talent. So what does that mean?" <hoping they didn't banish him completely, like they would have me>
"It means I'm gonna play the clarinet."

LOL ... I shot Nikon all my professional career. (I played with Leica for a spell, but always had my Nikons at the ready.)
