    I also have an 18-255 zoom. I just haven't used it much. I'm heading for the Ice Roads in January, hoping to catch some interesting shots up there.

    Chevy reVOLTing

    When did Wheels get into Partisan Politics? In fairness to GM the Volt is a first generation electric car which is bound to have issues. I think they're moving in the right direction. We better start embracing this technology, fossil fuel will be a thing of the past.

    Same sh*t different day

    Smoking Statistics

    I did a bit of perusing today on the net and was going to throw up some statistics on whether smoking with young people is really on the decline thanks to Tax increases, but there is so much contradictory information out there I thought I would just throw it up to discussion. I quit smoking...
