Went to the hairdessers today, but something went terribly wrong

Sharon likes Frank's still life, Ode to a Crowbar.



The crowbar rests now.
A loose block teeters nearby,
The sledgehammer waits...

Frank ponders why 'tis,
Tools left to fend for themselves,
After this, heads will roll.

Sorry all, but I just looked at the calendar, and realized I was in big trouble. I won't say I told on everyone else, but..............................oh who am I kidding, I sang like a canary. So, if anyone finds coal in the stocking this year, just know you shouldn't have been so bad in the first place. LOL

And do you know why Santa is always so jolly? Because he knows where the naughty girls live

Cars with parents wait,
Hackberries crunch in the street,
School is out today.


Once I start haiku,
I can't stop, like Jimmy.
Gary started that...

I am pissed..... Two roll tank, one perfect, the other looks like clay color. Worked my butt off figuring things out before I go on a journey of creation from what I learned... Never had this happen. Film from KEH probably explains it, I am not buying anything from them again. So many failure purchases, one after another. I'm done.

I've only had one experience with them. I bought a used Sigma lens that was supposed to be a Nikon mount but when it arrived it turned out to be a Canon. The return went smoothly.

I have sent one lens back to them as it had a bad squeak focusing. But other than that, through at least a dozen orders, I have been happy. Thing with film is you never know what your going to get as you can't check it. Can't be verified if it was stored properly.

I'm a total idiot....sorry keh, your fine except you never send me good flash's. Anyway, I looked at the film closer, it was Portra 400. I should have noticed the color of the leader but nooooooooooooooo, just going through the motions. When I expense a roll, I leave the leader hanging out. I use the canister for bulkload. My Maxxum 9 has the option to rewind with leader, pretty slick. They look a lot like TriX canisters. There are images so will be interesting to see what a scan will look like. So, JC gets the dumb move of the week, now I'm yelling at myself, good Lord, help me. Oh, I was surprised a little by the color of the prewash but didn't think it through.

Ah, I was just thinking I have some film in my bulk real. Normally I load all into cassettes in one shot. But, I know I didn't load all my last session. And I know I didn't mark what film was in the bulk loader. Pretty sure it's B&W, but what speed? Will have to investigate when I get home.

*sigh*

For me it was Half Life Time! Thought of the many hours I spent together with Gordon Freeman to save the world from extraterrestrial evils....

...pity they stopped the tale after Episode Two!

Well, now you've lost me... lol
