Does a Texas State Trooper car count? I am real good at getting speeding, and luckily, warning tickets on the way to Roswell. I know the speed limit is 80, but you always have to cheat them by at least 5 mph. It's the American way.

LOL - I would imagine that would work. I'd just love to witness you asking a cop if you can quickly take a photo after he has given you a warning ticket.

Fair to take shots that fit in the city you're departing from, yes?

If anyone has any difficulty creating their Flickr.com account, uploading photos, or anything else, please seek me out at the show and I'll do my best to help.

I'll be at the Hampton Inn.

I didn't think I'd find one (without stumbling completely accidentally onto one) along the way, but I got one all scoped out that isn't completely out of the way, as long as the picture works at about 1 in the morning.

My email address is apparently linked to an existing account??? But I don't know the password and when I try and upload photos I'm asked to log into my Google account (used that to setup Flickr instead of creating a yahoo account) and it just loops back and forth.

I'm probably going to have to use another email address to set this up. Why must I be Special Ed?

WE could always get a $1 dino from WalMart and do some fancy depth of field tricks with it.

If I can find a pink tahoe, you can find a dinosaur ride and photograph your bug pulled up on the sidewalk of some walmart with it.
