This is why no one will buy you a new camera, if you're going to be shoving it inside a pumpkin.

Well, let's make a deal. You tell me the kinds of pictures I can take that will cause someone to buy me a nice camera, and I'll start posting only those.

Oh, Snap!!

Andy D. said...

Wrong-O. That would be censorship. But more importantly --

You obviously can currently take any and every kind of picture imaginable -- therefore -- need no new camera to take other photos.

Two snaps up in a full circle!

Is that really a pumpkin? I was guessing a negative image of an upside tree.

No! You are not allowed to sell out for a camera unless it's the magical kind that forces subjects to pose to your will and always captures exactly the shot you wanted.

Friends don't let friends sell their souls for anything that isn't seriously cool.

Mike Bailey said...

i don't think it's upside down. sad, but i can't remember. but it's definitely a photo of one tree in particular.

Shinigami-Sidhe: so were your ears burning the other night. i was talking about your writing to some folks and, well, you would have been completely disgusted by how flattering it was.

but here's my question to you: isn't a new camera seriously cool?!?!

why else would one sell their soul?

Elisheba said...

SO that explains the great feelings of pride and ego. You're a brilliant and wonderful person, and a new camera is seriously cool, however, it may be bought with money. You should only sell your soul for those things which can't, like the ability to cause fire and brimstone to rain death on people. Save your soul for when you really need it.

S-S:

Ouch. That hurt. But I deserved it. You're right. As always.

(spoken to MB, from a conjurer who sounds amazingly like Elmer Fudd):

"Foh yoh soul, Michaw B: fiya and bwimstone?... Or, dis nice camwa? Da choice is yohs..."

Sadly, I know exactly which one he would pick.

Mike Bailey said...

Andy--but cameras are really nice.
