Well...Goodbye.

Got a mini USB cable to the computer. Got a mini USB plug on the camera. They look like they should fit together. But I can't get them to fit.

Not that I'm an expert on this, but there are two types of mini USB plugs (A and B), where A is slightly beveled, though they otherwise look much the same. There are also AB and B "micro" plugs. So if the cable didn't come with your camera, chances are you've just got the wrong type.
 
That's kind of what I was guessing. It looks right. But the difference between this cable and a mostly similar correct cable might be too small to eyeball.

There are indeed two visually near-identical variants. According to my eye, the cable for my Tascam is identical to that for my Olympus - but neither one will fit the other.

Best I can suggest is to take the camera into the shop & physically test the fitting (that or pick up a cheapo card reader).

Pete.
 
There are a definite plentitude of utterly adorable women at the KFF. But I've never gotten the hang of posting pics.

One in particular that I got a pic of last year was pretty gorgeous, amusing, and a bit disturbing.

I went to check in at Staff Central for my shift, and the girl who was signing me in started flirting by proxy. As in :"I've got a friend here on the ranch who would totally be into you. Do you want me to make some arrangements?"

She got as far as basically guaranteeing oral sex from said friend before I could tell her I married. Only a few sentences after that did she bother to mention that the friend in question is a guy.


*crickets*


I'm pretty hopelessly heterosexual. So I had a REALLY difficult time trying to figure out what to say to that. Apparently her friend must really like big bearded guys. I still laugh at the disappointed look she gave me when I said I was straight. I'm sure I've made a lot of women sad by telling them I was straight before, but not in that particular way.

This is her last year, a day or two after the events of that story:

And this is her this year. Apparently having a better day.

Here's my across the road neighbor for the last couple of years. I don't know how well it'll come accross in my pics. But in person her looks a LOT like Steve Bailey, just taller.

Here's the front entrance to the campground. We call it the mixmaster. Go in on the right and out on the left and don't run over the rock sculptures. Yes it happens occasionally.

Two of my friends, Megan and Reed, hanging out with the best singer in the known universe, and possibly the as yet unknown universe as well, Bettysoo.

My friend Kendall with Fiona, his Ferrington:

Reed and Kendall and I all happened to be at the same camp last year when it started raining. So we had a captive audience for a songcircle...but the only instrument there was Fiona. Out of fifteen or twenty people there, we three were the only singing bass players at that circle. So we got to monopolize it for a hour or two till the rain stopped. I got last years best compliment at that circle. I was doing a song from my old band and feeling alarmed and insecure about how much higher the vocals felt compared to twenty years ago. And I saw Kendall lean over and say something to Princess and she nodded. I worried they were saying something like "Man. Ziggy's voice sucks tonight." So I eventually asked Princess what Kendall had said. He'd said "There are bass players, and bass owners. Ziggy's a real bass player."

Cool, huh?
 
And even the things people drive tend to be more individualistic there:

I include this shot in that, because this guys whole camp had to fit in the saddlebag of that bike in the background. So notice that in stead of having an airbed inside his tent, his tent is on top of his airbed. Because that was all he could fit.

How about a closer view.

This was on a different vehicle.

Was that a sexy Asian chick I saw? :eyebrow:

:D

We had a few. But I don't think I got a good pic of any of them. One in particular, Izzie, the first time I saw her fixed up I thought of you, Maki. But the only pic I found with her in it is so bad, I'm not sure you'll be able to tell she's a woman, or asian, let alone a hot asian woman.

That's her in the red shirt. See what I mean? But with her hair loose and makeup on, you would have just lost control of four to seven major bodily functions.

To make up for that, here's a few better shots with Bettysoo in them:

Do Phillipinas count? How about Imelda? (No it's not her real name. Or at least I doubt that it is.)

That's mostly all I can give you, Maki.
