Oh, I do like the Rolex Day-Date.

Re: Random Thoughts
You guys are all quite sane about shoes.
But how about wearing different shoes on each foot? Happened to me a couple of times. I used to get up very early and dress in semi-darkness. The worst time was when I wore a black lace-up on my left foot and a brown loafer on my right.

“From the mind of Minolta.” Have thought about that in a looong time. I have a Canon and Pentax that I need to shoot. All manual from the mid to late 60’s. Last time I checked the light meter still worked on at least one.

Re: Random Thoughts
I would like to see some of your splits just because I know what your are capable of, but I will not be posting mine...not now anyway. I was hitting the weights pretty hard until a couple of months ago and that is part of my problem. My wife likes me in the gym a lot more than running and she isn’t afraid to remind me .Stretch44 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 23, 2021 10:45 amWe can start a thread for running and I'd participate.

I'm probably the only person who feels the CasiOak should actually be called the G-ShOak instead.

Does Gemnation only have like 5-7 watches they cycle through for their daily deals?

Hello watch friends! It's been a little while. I'm breaking my unplanned absence to share my 6 year old's definition of "(in the) meantime"...
noun: A time when everyone is mean.

I’ll share this because six year olds are a hoot. My son said something about “ear whack.” After he said it again, my wife corrected him and told him that it is called “ear wax.” He said, “I know, but I only have one so it is ear whack not ear whacks.”

Instead of exchanging rings at wedding, wondering if any couple has exchanged watches....
It's really quite random...

Re: Random Thoughts
My 4yo dropped some truth bombs on me today...
Daughter: I want to have pizza for dinner
Me: We don't have any
Daugther: What happened to the pizza in the fridge?
Me: It got eaten.
Daughter: Who ate it?
Me: (Oh oh) Ummm...me.
Daughter: Daddy, you should make better choices! ...I wanted to eat that pizza!
