Camera Shipping Mini Update: 12/7

Thank you for that

This is why I like you, Paul.


But my script is finished and ready.

Too cool Paul! I'm going to grab my precious Granddaughter and go out for some sushi. When I get home, either the update will be here or it won't. Life will march on.

You guys are good sports. Sushi sounds good! I'm hungry.

Christine...Your going to have very unhappy people if something does not pop up soon!!!!

Guys, it's Friday night. Relax. Go out with your woman/man. If you don't have one, go out and meet one.... or at least go out with your buddies... and while you're on your date, I'm sure you've signed up for the mailing list, so keep your smart phone on you and when you hear that alert go off in the middle of dinner with your beautiful date (whether it be your wife, girlfriend, new lady-friend, or new man), excuse yourself from the table and go to the bathroom (because you don't want to be rude), and check to see if it's your buddies asking how the date is going, or if it's Grant Petty telling you that your camera is on it's way. Just keep in mind that if it's bad news about the camera, don't let it show on your face because when you get back to the table, the conversation will go..

"What's wrong?"
"Oh... nothing..."
"Do you not like the food?"
"Oh no it's good... it's just... well... honey.... you see... I've been waiting on this camera... and they CEO of the company just said it's going to be delayed a bit more and.... "

And as she looks at you with that "WTF is wrong with this guy" look on her face, you start to realize (or maybe you don't) that this camera is such a small part of this thing we call life.

"Wait... honey... where are you going? Don't leave! I need someone to hold me and tell me everything is going to be okay! I need my camera! Please! Come back!"

And as everyone at the restaurant stares at you, silently thinking "loser," your iPhone alert goes off one more time... it's Grant Petty and he says, "Just kidding. The shipments leave the warehouse tomorrow."

And you go home happy, forget about the girl, check the forum once more just in case someone says something you don't like, turn on the TV with a huge smile on your face, as your script (which so desperately needs to be finished and rewritten) sits on your hard drive not accessed for 3 months. You fall asleep on the couch (alone) with another episode of Fringe playing in the background.

2 weeks pass, you're still single, but you finally get your camera, and immediately think to yourself, "Damn... what do I shoot now?" And the horrifying image of your unfinished script appears in your head as you think, "Should've finished it..."

You look around, wondering what you can shoot to test the DOF of a less than Micro 4/3" but bigger than Super 16mm sensor... and a light bulb goes off in your head...

In a moment of sheer (supposed) genius, the following words inexplicably leave your mouth...

"Here, kitty kitty kitty!"

20 minutes later, there you sit in front of your new Davinci Resolve system, and a thought from days past crosses your mind for a split second... "Should I call that girl I went on that date with a few weeks ago?" But, after taking a huge swig from your bottle of Mountain Dew, you suddenly get distracted by the image on your monitor as you think, "Damn my cat looks good shot in 2.5K RAW."

Hahaha, I loved it Paul!

I'm off to an early Christmas lunch today. Might even drink some beer and enjoy myself.
