utter disbelief

Leave a comment

i was told something today that was shocking. shocking mostly because i was told completely contradictory information from a source that i thought was pretty reliable. now i’m finding out from the source that the information that i was originally told was incorrect.

obviously someone is lying.

if it is penny, the person who gave me the seemingly incorrect information first, who is lying, it definitely paints an unflattering picture about the motivation they had for lying.

if it is kimmy, the person who i am tending to believe, who is lying, it seems like a very big lie to make.

either way, it doesn’t make sense. why would you lie when you can so easily get caught in this lie? how would that make you look? why would you risk your credibility that much?

hahaha. [url=http://tow.com/photogallery/20040110_elephant_seals/]adam[/url] said, “I felt quite inadequate with my 70-200 with a 1.4x tele-extender.”

hahaha. no, really. please. stop it, you’re killing me. hahahaha.

oh dear. i think you just up it to a whole new level when you go with CRAZY LENSES like the 600mm lens, a 300/2.8, and the 100-400. sure, sure. see, it’s not THAT crazy to spend $1300 on a little lens…no, not crazy at all. never mind that the 600mm lens is on the order of $7200. never mind that the 300/2.8 is considered cheap at $3900. and the 100-400 is dirt cheap at $1400. i mean, yeah, who wouldn’t feel a little inadequate with the 70-200? buck up, adam, i’m sure that you’ll start to feel more secure about yourself in the coming days. =P

and here i was fretting over a lens that’s a few hundred dollars!

i’ve decided that my budget for lenses is obvious in the wrong order of magnitude. add another zero and then we’re talking a REAL budget for lenses.

sheesh!
