I find it hard to believe that there's not a huge Z following in the Austin/Houston/San Antonio area.

Houston is still a 3 hour drive for me. And the roads are crappy. I might drive up to DFW for a weekend getaway soon.

hi mr. zman!

hey there, mr.alcheng.

huh, you should take that invoice to the dealer and have them reimburse you. patching a tire is sometimes included in the lifetime warranty by the tire manufacturer.

Had angled ones but they were kinda long. The pressure they were applying on the screw wasnt enough. A shorter pair w some good teeth would have been better.

I've only used one a few times and I never do tilt-shift photography, so you got me there

I was amazed by its effect the first time I saw the pic in an album, I didn't know it was from a tilt-shift lens and I was "WTF how did they do that!!??"

One of my friend rented it and play with it for a bit, couldn't master it... cost about $1500 a piece

Not $$$ consider it's a special lens but rarely have occasion to use it...

Getting push back from the accountant on the intakes I want to purchase (first major mod

). We just spent a bunch of money having fun this weekend, and it pretty much all went on the credit card

Work is crazy this week trying to catch up - I hate going out of town

Will do my best to spread some $hi++y Monday rep around

I was in Boulder, Colorado for work W-F last week. Dead tired Friday night after getting home, but Sat and Sun nights we did some partying here in Austin.
