Right away it felt I need something sticking out in front maybe a foot 
or so with a grip just to steady the rocking motion created by sitting 
on my shoulder.  On a camera where do you attach anything?? Not like 
it's got bolt holes pre drilled. The first thing that came to mind was 
to use the screw fitting thats used for the  focus cable. It points down 
and since it not on a tripod it's not being used. I could find a fitting 
that would screw onto it and attach the fitting to a lenght of pipe with 
a hand grip on the end. Bend it to suit my comfort. Not sure though how 
sturdy the connection would be since it's on the lens kinda and if it 
would handle the forces.

As far as the ice chest thing. Yeah if i had one of those old people 
hover craft strollers (as seen on TV) i could tow it. But how to get 
medicare to pay for it is another story. LOL
