When shooting at Vanessa's hockey games, I found myself needing gloves (especially after getting the LX, whose surface seems to get much colder much more quickly than my ME Super). I ended up getting a pair of Thinsulate gloves with no fingers, but a mitt that flips over the fingertips if you want it. They're nice and thin, and keep most of my hand warm, except the fingers, which still have to go into the pockets between periods. Hey, all you hosers (or wannabe hosers, as it were), if any of you were watching Leafs vs. Bruins on Saturday night, Vanessa and I appeared briefly on the Hockey Night In Canada feed -- we were the couple down near the glass behind the net (behind Dafoe in the first and third and Joseph in the second), me in a blue Leafs away jersey and Vanessa in a white Leafs home jersey, holding up a Curtis Joseph action figure. We didn't see it, but were told that we did indeed appear. There's another digital advantage: if you spend enough money on scanners, printers and consumables, your distributor will give you free kick-ass hockey tickets! -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
