We visited my buddy on Tuesday.

We hung out on a world-renowned windsurfing beach for a bit. Off season so the wind was dead.



A 90 degree pivot to the West and you can see his house.



Amazing views from the patio...



...and living room



...and kitchen.



Property taxes are brutal though. $45 per year.

His builder's plumb bob works fine from what I could tell.

My 16mm fisheye on the other hand...

It's conditions like these that make me want the 10.5 DX fisheye with the ability to convert from fisheye to a normal rectilinear perspective using Capture.

------Yes, it's Mexico.

I'd like to thank my deductive reasoning for that one.:cool:
Hmm.

Tequila bottle on the counter. Mexican rugs, tile, etc.

I instantly thought, "Finland".

Well, with all due respect to giving props to myself, I've never been to Mexico. The closest I got was a girl a few years ago.

Dry humping a Puerto Rican chick in the bathroom at CBGB's doesn't count.

Not even some Pizza?
Ok, I got a blister from a 2 hour set at CB's once. And a case of the creeps from the backstage area. That place is gross. (I'll miss it though)


I go up to St. Mark's for pizza.

Correct - I never got anything at CB's.

I am lucky in that regard.
Y'know, I've never actually been in there. I actually live like two blocks away and often walk by the crusty young punks waiting outside. I think the whole place needs to have been burned down five years ago. That would have been epic!

have you checked the US/Canadian exchange rate recently?

:help:
Edging close. However the casinos payout in US $$ still the same. All the Canadian programmers were I work have left to get jobs back in TO. The US dollar doesn't have the same luster anymore.
