Creepy.

I have a photo related question:

Nikon USA has coined a term called: "grey market purchase". They claim they will not repair these items.

I now try to find people who actually tested this claim, ie tried to have such a purchase serviced and were sent away.

Until I find significant proof I will call this SCARECROW.

PLEASE HELP.

Somehow I just can't picture you in K-Mart underwear.

Never know, I might have a little "Rainman" in me.

If you wore those things it would be more like MOON River.

K-Mart has the best underwear

Who wears underwear anyway. According to our grumpy Gorilla, whom I miss, what happened to him? .... wearing underwear is an overrated hype. Wearing anything below the waste line is unnecessary. As long as you sit on a table you are safe (the table should be ... Well ... Look

Hot Pot is what it's like outside today. It is hot and beyond steamy out there. All I did was try to get a largish box in from the porch just out of reach - luckily being a hockey fan I have hockey sticks handy but this one I could barely get! thank goodness most of my deliveries are by the brown truck with a regular route driver who toodles his horn as he makes his way down the street (small town America...).

We have our own water dept. and our own water tower that is about 2 ft off the ground. Not sure why that is... we're actually part of the regional water whatever, just got the annual report. It's a boring read but good that someone's checking these things. Lately we have plenty of water, in the ground, on the grass, in the air. All it's doing is causing the AC to steam up the window.

Now listen you boys, we already had Frank out trotting around in his hospital gown, now Gryph's gonna be running around in his skivvies...

Yep that's me.

























Now try to get that picture out of your mind when you go to sleep tonight.

Were right behind you Frank. In fact, next time you go to a place that has a sign posted that Reads:

No Shirt......
No Shoes.....
No Service!

Take everything off except your shirt and shoes and report back to us on what happens.

I see a bad moon a rising, I see trouble on the way.

At least she didn't go all Basic Instinct sitting at that glass desk.

Glad you're out of the hospital Frank. From what I understand, 'gray' market isn't quite 'black' market as it isn't illegally obtained goods (I don't know the exact definition of it). But gray market means in the US the manufacturers will not honor warranties that are not US warranties. So if the thing breaks or falls apart I guess you're SOL.


Why clams...?? an unusual craving.

The picture hasn't loaded, yet... so thankfully I'll be able to sleep well! lol

edit - And yeah, where is the big Gorilla?? haven't seen him on in ages.

Gray Market - The legal sale of a product through distribution channels not authorized by the manufacturer, by a 3rd party. In the case of sales in other countries, the product may or may not conform to the certifications of that country. IE: In the US there was a significant import of used Chinese sub-compact tractors. They brought them in by the container, cleaned them up, slap some paint on them, and sold them. While it wasn't illegal, the problem for the consumer is that the tractors didn't meet basic US safety standards. There was no roll-over protections, the throttle worked backwards from US operation, and the PTO could be operated far above the US standard (which could seriously damage equipment or harm the operator), to name a few.
