If only 700 of you donated 10 dollars

[DS1]

I could have one of these



Shall I set up the paypal account now, or wait for someone to offer to cover it outright?


What? I've been good! I've entertained you with dazzlingly witty photoshops, indulged in your brilliant lounge threads, and talked highly of each and every single one of you.

[Suich]

1. $7,000???????? n/t

[DS1]

2. Correct

So, are you in?

[LisaL]

30. It better slice and dice for that kind of money.

[bertha katzenengel]

38. hell, it better give him mind-blowing h**d for that kind of money

;)

[k_jerome]

3. i will donate a penny.

as well as match up to 10 others up to a max of 1 penny.

[DS1]

6. A brazillion thank yous

To you, sir

[ForrestGump]

4. Lounge people! I'll undercut him...just 7000 of you send me thirty cents

each. What a bargain!

[DS1]

8. Yeah, but

I'm a full-fledged professional ( I got 45 bucks for a picture once ), and you're not :P

[ForrestGump]

10. That's what YOU think

[DS1]

12. That's a fine red x ya got there

You use a flash with that? 60 or 250 synch?

[ForrestGump]

16. Ambient light. Rear curtain double-overhead cams with photon actuator

Kind of like Ansel Adams' approach.

Bet you wish you could so clearly capture the essence of X.

[DS1]

18. puh. scoff. your photon actuator isn't phased?

Nothin but savages in this town

[matcom]

5. you told Santa I had been bad

and then provided a pic of me in a pink thong getting whipped by YOU x(

fuck off.

enjoy your 'high-tech snap shots' :eyes:

[DS1]

7. That was only after you SOLD my green thong pictures

and didn't even cut me a check for the money it brought in

[k_jerome]

9. i believe that camera has approx. 2 brazilian megapictures. nt

[Rising Phoenix]

11. Tell you what...

I'll buy it for you...now go charge it and there will be a check in the mail covering it...'k

hehe...sucker

[DS1]

13. I'll give sniffa the biggest pictures of your feet he's ever seen

so he can plaster them all over the house

[Rising Phoenix]

15. he would love that...

especially after I get my new tattoo...

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

14. Or you could settle for a 20D

I only paid 1500 for mine... sometimes ya just gotta lower your standards ;)

[DS1]

17. I've been looking at one of those all week

I need something more flexible and faster than this Digital Rebel I have

Those 'Pay us back in 90 days or pay through the nose' deals sure got tempting. Sigh.

[Oeditpus Rex]

24. I've been looking at the 20D for months

I need something less archaic and beaten all to hell than these two A-1's.

(Whose lenses, of course, won't work on an EF body.)

:banghead:

[proud2BlibKansan]

19. One of these is a lot cheaper

[DS1]

20. Perfect for taking portraits of people with their heads dead-center

like the rest of the disposable losers out there.

Wait.

Thank you for your suggestion, I shall be sure to consider it once it is time to make a purchase.

[proud2BlibKansan]

21. Did you see how the face plate changes?

That Canon doesn't do that.

[Oeditpus Rex]

22. You forgot somethin'

And you'll need another thousand or so donors for the good glass.







Sigh... :cry:

[DS1]

23. Nothing but L series

Quite true. I'll cover that myself.

[BlueJazz]

25. If I get 70 of you to send me 10 Cents, I can have one of these Beauties!

[DS1]

26. Gratuitous kick

That's right, gratuitous, as in, you give me money and in return I'll never take a bad picture of you.

[Zomby Woof]

27. I was going to send you 10 bucks

But you posted that Brazillion joke one too many times. :P

[DS1]

28. No no no

I posted it but twice, and both were completely original in nature. That's why you should support me as a new professional photographer, and help me gather the tools of the trade, and later on after you retire you can google my name and see what amazing things you helped create. It's kinda like owning stock in a company. Shit, I'll even give you dividends. One hundreth of a percent of every photo print I sell is yours, pal. Don't fall over, I'm serious, you can have that much cash flow forever, for a simple upfront donation of ten bucks. That's less than a haircut. Hell, that's less than two 4-shot Venti lattes at Starbucks.

C'mon, it's a steal.

[Zomby Woof]

29. See what a generous liberal I am?

I could have accused you of posting it TWO too many times, but I gave you a pass on the first time.

Of course, I could make a distinction between the brilliance of your two photoshops, and the banal attempts (including my own) of others posting it, but if I knew how to make subtle distinctions, would I even be qualified to post in GD? ;-)

[Seabiscuit]

31. If only 500 of you donated $15, 500 poor African children could attend

school for a year.

[SOteric]

32. I'd like to hear more about this

"talking highly" of which you speak...

But check your renderosity just anyway...

[DS1]

33. I see nothing

just a fat load of me sending files to myself :shrug:

[SOteric]

34. Did you check the spam filter

just to see if it thought you were getting junk?

[DS1]

36. my gmail spam filter is empty

:shrug:

[SOteric]

40. Check again in a bit

they're telling me it hasn't been sent yet.

[DS1]

41. m'kay

meanwhile, watch my attempt at ending the brazillion joke forever

[SOteric]

42. It says 'sent' now.

[DS1]

43. nuttin yet

I'll look later

[B Calm]

35. If only 700 of you donated 10 dollars to me, I could afford to fly to

the South Pacfic and have my bare butt swatted with palm leaves by a couple half naked hula girls..

[Texasgal]

37. Sorry... I don't buy gifts for

PIGS!!!! :P

[New Earth]

39. good idea

i'll start a thread like this for my trip to Germany in July :bounce: :hi:
