Some of them, from the war years, are individual 2 x 3" negatives. Maybe 1.5 x 2. What kind of camera (or film)would produce such?

Wife apparently just woke up. She also went to bed at 9 PM. She's getting some high volume base training in for the upcoming sleep championships, I guess.

Can you still buy 120 film, contact paper, Dektol and all that stuff?

Lunch talk- I just love good, rare roast beef from the deli. A lot. With salt and pepper. Mmmmm.

Yes, but what's the point?

Leave it to a Minnesotan to sunbathe in a Speedo at 53°.

No, I didn't take pictures.

FWIW, in my work, tumescence is usually followed a day or so later by purulent discharge. Turgidity (-ness?) usually involves uninfected swelling.

Although I did have one "moment" Sunday. I was riding down a little banked sweeping area that's a piece of cake, other than the fact it's real loose with golfball sized stones. Normally I just monster truck over everything with my 3" tires, but I actually slid badly this time. I think I was at ~ 30 deg angle to the ground (bars almost touching), but I steered into it (up the bank) and managed to get it under control. It was damn close, though.

I'll show you the spot before too long :innocent:

That's some wild ****. No idea when this injury suite settles (I think sooner than later actually) but I need to use a small portion for another road bike and or entry level mountain.

Since this is really a bike board, I'd like to report that Mrs.T and I did a 26 mile tandem bike ride.

The log will read:

Nice easy tandem ride.
26.0 mi. at 16.2 mph
Sunny, 72°, SSE at 5-12 mph
Pollen - 11.1

I was in Panama Beach a few years ago and it was about 50-55° that day with a harsh wind. I was riding my bike and saw a guy in shorts an wife-beater undershirt waxing a Cadillac in the shade. I thought to myself that he must be from Minnesota. When I got close enough to read his plate, my suspicion was confirmed. :)

Huh? You have some that are both those sizes?


1.5" x 2" sounds roughly like a 645 format (6cm x 4.5cm, or 2.36" x 1.77"). I still have a Mamiya 645 film camera, but I don't think it works. Lugged that thing with a metered view finder, power winder and three lenses across the U.S. and then some during my '99 bike adventure. Took 120 film.

Don't know much about film cameras, but maybe something like a Kodak Brownie would have been era-appropriate.

Didn't you tell us at some point that your dad flew bombers? Those would be some amazing photos.

Pales in comparison to beet pills, my friend. You really must try them some time.

I'll measure them. I'd never seen negatives like that. If they came on a roll, they were later cut up.
