Got offered $125 for my Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 from someone on craigslist. Why do they even bother?

Short answer: Because it doesn't hurt to ask. Don't like the offer, ignore it. Believe it or not, there are plenty of sellers who have no idea what they have. Got a lot of good deals that way.

Did they want you to ship it to some other address because it's a gift for their cousin and they are in the military?

The guy I sold my Tokina 11-16 to drove 2 hours to meet me to pay cash and he forgot to bring his camera to test out the lens.

Had a similar situation when selling a Sony lens. Guy drove over an hour to meet me. Got there. No camera. He got this panicked look on his face, threw open the doors and searched the car. Then he thought he left it on TOP of the car and drove off. Called his wife. She confirmed it was sitting next to the front door.....right where he left it. Phew!! Worked out in the end.

Roxy says hi.

Hey Gurrrrrl...

Hey ladies, y'all looking pretty awesome. My human shoots film, he is a dork. He could buy me a lot more bones instead of black plastic canisters and stinky water bottles. I chewed on some of those canisters to piss him off, it worked.

Roxy says she’s single and ready to mingle, but that she’s a smart, strong willed woman who doesn’t take any grief and demands respect.

Really? You would keep that forever. It sort of reminds me of aussie rules on ice. Especially the body checking. Watched a good documentary on Netflix about the ice hockey enforcers. They where hard bastards!

Sorry to hear the bad news, @smoke665.
@JonA_CT: I just got notification of a Census Bureau article on craft breweries.

Off to BWI to pick up the rental. We asked for a Wrangler - we'll see what happens.

The glass is still “small” in CT! Things are cooking now. I’m hoping you’ll be able to stop in on your way to Portland soon.

We're heading up about 2:00 this afternoon. Our plan is to go to Long Island and grab the ferry, then stay in New London - Mystic - Stonington tonight. That puts us fairly close to half-way.

We are taking some time to do things more than drive up and back, whether it's more time in Maine or a side trip to Clyde's Cider Mill or anything else. I'll send you a PM with my contact info a little later on.

A little later, and we might have seen each other on the road. We're heading up to Brooklyn tonight; Long Island tomorrow for a birthday party.

Make sure you hit the basement of the old mill for the good stuff. Just be warned that “Blackout” isn’t just the name

Friday

Got through Friday unscathed. Enjoying fried Fish at the deli. Going to get insurance and inspection when I leave. And send $20 more for two watches.

I had a doctor's appt this morning, and since I am basically fried, I gave myself the rest of the day off work. Went to the doc, then to Starbucks for a nice big coffee. Just finished treating myself to a manicure (and a big tip for the manicurist). I am considering taking myself to lunch before doing a few more chores and some shopping.

Didn't realize how much I needed this until I started doing it!
