Had an exceptionally nice lunch break today. After a delicious Gyro I stopped into the thrift store where I spied a Pentax in the display case marked $20. It was a SP II with a S-M-C 50mm f1.4 that works perfectly. It had the lower half of the soft case on the body and after I purchased it I took it out and was surprised to find a nicely engraved "Roger Welsch" and his Social Security No. on the bottom plate.
I figure I can get more than $20 for the Social Security Number. (I kid! I kid!) Roger is the closest thing we have to a celebrity around these parts. He's an author and "Senior Correspondent" for CBS program "Sunday Morning" where he does the "Postcards from Nebraska" segment. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1998/07/10/sunday/main13645.shtml I think I'll develop the two rolls of exposed film that came with it and send them to him as a gift. : ) Darren Addy Kearney, NE -- Nothing is sure, except Death and Pentaxes. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
