| For all of you people wandering around with 512MB cards in your cameras, get in gear! Buy this card! I've used it since mid-2006 without a single problem. It writes like every other card and downloads much faster (with the right card reader). When I bought it, I paid $57, so it's come down in price now at $49.99 plus shipping, but no rebate to hassle with this time. I just shake my head when I see gray-haired people paying twice as much at Best Buy for half the space!
So if you have a camera that uses Secure Digital cards, get this! One caveat - be prepared to return it if your camera can't handle it. You might be limited at 2GB if your card uses FAT formatting instead of FAT32. With my camera, I can use it, but I have to use my computer to format the card. For my next camera, I'll get a 16GB card, but 4GB usually lasts me several hours or more before I run out of space. Unfortunately, I missed the International Shooting-All-The-Time Day on Sunday because I was plowing, but I'll try to keep the holiday going for the rest of my life.

| There are so many other things I want to talk about, but I want to show the last batch of pictures. I've been quiet on the photographing front for the last week, largely because of my granddad's memorial service and a decent snow storm that we had.
First off are the pictures from my friend's surprise birthday party.
I know Adam through Chi Alpha, and our whole gang of XA homies made it out to surprise him. Including Bobbo! It was fun. =)
Pete and Amanda have a weekly appointment to watch The Office, so I joined them and brought over a poster of Pete's band as his Christmas present. Then there was a pillow fight! Pete got pretty airborne,  and I wished I had used some bounce on that flash to fix the shadow.
 
Next up was actually a series of great evenings with my friends Chris and Matt who were both in town at the same time for the first time in ages. Chris, my brother, and I hung out together with them for the first time since he got married. Rochambo was the obvious choice!
Good times! Lotsa people skipped out - their loss. Joe stole the show on the piano but was robbed repeatedly in arm wrestling. 
Len's XA Party
I'm gonna have to get a whole lot better at posed group pictures... It goes against my pj style (that's photojournalism, yo). =) Oh, I wanna be resourceful so check out these pictures! That picture is my favorite, but there are tons of great ones in the contest - it gets me excited and motivated to do more.
Alexis refused to let me take any pictures, but then she did so well! I love this picture!
So tomorrow, I will hopefully have a change of pace for the blog. I need to reflect.
Do you like my profile pic? Esther does good work!

| Some days, I wanna be a wedding photographer... I think I would do a pretty good job.
Brent's wedding. That's Lars with him, so it's pretty meaningful to me to have pictures and have spent time with two of the most influential people in my life. Brent is interning in Florida for the Chi Alpha at FSU and doing an awesome job too.
Christmas with the fam. I picked up a monopod, 12 Angry Men, Johnny Cash's autobiography, new boots (same as last year!), but I still need to give them their presents... Get ready for a few days of pictures of friends - I sorta had a frenzy.
