ToolMan,

I gotta tell you man, I feel honored to have you smoke the Nub brother.

It's awesome that you've joined our site here, and I hope to see you around as often as you can.

I did 4 years on the Constellation, but that was during peace times. I hope your finding ways to have a little fun over there. I certainly do not miss that heat.

I truly appreciate all the sacrafices you've made to protect this awesome country that we all tend to take for granted at times.

Keep up the outstanding service and get home safe and soon!

Nice stand Toolman! Must have been good to make a face like that.

You know, actually I just wanted to see if I could do it, so I was using the force, right, and my buddy grabbed my camera from next to me, trying to turn it on and take the pic all while making a crap load of noise and movement, and I was just trying not to lose focus and drop it, and that pic is the result.

One of these is me doing a Nub stand on my knee, the other is 2 Habanos standing next to each other, and the other one...... Well, if I had a choice. I would go for the one on the right.

I really need to get some sun and get some of these done.

Dude you are out of control!!! I'm glad to see that some of my tax dollars are going to something worthwhile!!!!!
ToolMan28
04-03-2009, 07:59 PM
HaHa, Believe me, I'm not seeing those tax dollars! Naw, this site is great. I have been here (Kuwait) for 3 months, I work 12 on 12 off in an office 7 days a week. I work the night shift, so I get to see and talk to about a total of 5 people. I got to break the monotiny(spellcheck?) somehow.

Ok, there probably isn't anything special about these, but I just happend to wake up way early. I figured I would throw on some civi's and step out for a Nub, plus I could get some pics in the day light. I know, I will do better.

Ok, so I went out today to buy some stuff, and I found a hell of a deal on a Kodak Easy Share Z1012 IS Camera. I have always wanted a better camera than a simple point and shoot and never really wanted to spend the cash. Well today I found this steal, under $200 bucks!! So, obviously I get home and wanna try it out. What better way than to catch a shot of a stand. I can't believe the detail in the shot. With any other camera I have owned, it would have taken me 20 shots or so to get one that was even close, this one is shot 2 of 3.

beautiful detail...
The last few cameras I have bought have been from Olympus. They sell current cameras, refurbs with warranties on e-bay for a song.

Thank you, sir, for everything you do for us. Keep your chin up and come home safe!


Also, that looks like a fantastic deal on that cam, excellent pic!

Thank You all for the comments. I brought my new toy/camera back here with me, and will be getting some more photos.

I am still working the night shift, but only half shift now, so that will give me some more time to come up with some ideas.

I know I promised some stands and pics with vehicles, but I am waiting to see if they send me out on a mission so I can get some different scenery.

I am just trying to come up with some ideas.

Wait till you see what will be waiting for you when you get home. I haven't sent it yet, I'm trying to time it with your arrival.
