When A Photo Blogger Scratches His Ass

Something struck me as odd today. It's one or two bloggers who post content that has already been to the moon and back (in memory of Apollo 11). There's this John Lack as in Lacking, guy who I've complained about before. In his post today he just reruns content. Doesn't he have something better to do like improve Photoshop so that Lightroom doesn't eat its lunch? So, I just had to scratch my ass in bewilderment.

More Diatribe from the Sigma DP2 Fogeys

Some people wants to squeeze as much blood out of a turnip as possible. The old guy continues with the poor old Sigma DP2 with what I've determined to be cheap banter and watered whiskey. What amazes me is that you'd think this guy belongs on Wall Street. But, far from it. There's talk of which company(s) has money and which needs refinements in electronics. Those two statements right there should tell ya those are words from someone who ain't in the know. What is it? Even my computer screen can't hide a red neck? Maybe this one shoulda stuck to building cars and inhaling car fumes and should never confuse economics, guts, mileage and fortitude with unleaded. Let me pass on the Geritol and Centrum Silver and go straight for the aged Jack D. to wash it down.

Oh, That Sigma DP2 Review

Well, I got a chuckle today. Over at this one website which I will call the "The Offline Photographer" there was a review on the Sigma DP2. This is the website that I've referred to as the place I'd go if I wanted to live my life over and over in a wheelchair. It's not so much the review as it is the comments from people who clearly have never even looked at the DP2. I wouldn't say its a great camera by any means. But, the comments are little too much Jim Jones and Guyana for me. And, with that I take it with a grain of salt and not with a pitcher of Kool-Aid.
