Not all L, there is at least one Nikon in the bunch but that is some strange glass since they are SO CLOSE to the Pancakes. The minumum focus distance on the 200mm L is 4.9 FEET and that camera is closer than that to the pancakes. One of those on the cameras looks to be a 300.

I'm trying to remember who told me this and exactly what it was they told me but someone recently told my son and I not to eat at IHOP and that suggestion came from a relative (son perhaps?) that works for the CIA? Obviously I didn't pay much attention to it...

I think that I figured it out. The aliens crashed at Roswell. There were survivors. They were placed in a cell together and a couple of them got knocked up because they did the alien wild thing when nobody was looking. Over time they continued to breed like flies. Apparently the oxygen in our atmosphere makes them " randy". I know that I have problems with that too so I completely understand how that could happen After all the years of breeding they had to do something with all of the captured aliens and their off spring so they gave them all new cars and IHOP franchises. The oxygen in our atmosphere still affects them so I would be careful about what you order with your pancakes

That's strange, I heard that they had all opened Wolf Camera franchises.

Walmart greeter... is a job that I aspire to. Walmart wouldn't be the same without them. In fact... I think that Walmart owes all of it's success to Walmart greeters. That and having 4 acres of handicapped parking spaces so non-handicapped losers can park closer to the front of the store (another topic in and of itself). When / if I grow up, I want to be a Walmart greeter... In fact... I want to be the leader of the Walmart greeters.. ta dump dump... ching

Does anybody have a link to the commercial on the Internet? I want to see a 300mm held a couple of feet away from some pancakes.
