I Need A Better Camera Phone

Ok, since some of you are demanding pics, here's your damn picture! Yes, I know it's shitty. My phone takes shitty pictures and is old. I'm poor, don't judge me. I would really like to get one of those thin, pocket sized cameras so that I can stealthily take pictures of the PoWM and other assorted freaks. It's just not that easy to secrete the Canon Eos Digital Rebel XT in my pocket without looking like one of the aforementioned freaks!

So there. What you are looking at above is what I believe to be a couple of cult members who were working the parking lot of my local grocery store. They were probably trying for converts, or more importantly, cash donations. Since the resolution quality is shite, let me describe in detail what they were wearing: white do-rags, white under-robes, red over-robes and saucer sized gold medallions. I think they were wearing sandals as well. Pure awesomeness!

I seriously need to get a smaller camera because I see amazing things almost every day. I just can't risk taking my big ass Canon everywhere. That fucker was too damned expensive! But I will, just for you, my dear readers, go on a special assignment to a place called The Ham and Eggery to get a pic of a most excellent vehicle parked over there! And I even have a great story to go along with it!

Excellent! I actually like the grainy res, it makes it look like the pope and a couple of cardinals.

It really is amazing how cheap you can pick up a really decent digital camera these days; I got one for the Spouse Sparrow a couple of months ago for about $100. Yeah, we had to save up for it, and it's not super-slim, but it was a big improvement over his years-old 5 MP one. This one's like 10 MP and has the stabilization thing and other stuff. We passed the old on down to the Nestling Sparrow, and he had it sussed in a day and was taking pics! I swear, the next generation will be born knowing how to fly the Space Shuttle when they pop out of the womb.

But definitely with the pics; I seriously regret all the pics we didn't take, now that we're not in the ghetto anymore.

Yeah, they actually have a pretty nice slim digital camera at Sam's for around $100 but it would be a splurge right now. I'll just have to stick to the low res pics.

A few years ago, I got one of the greatest of all pics on my old cell phone. It was at a Walmart, of course. It was such a stunner at the time that I broke out the camera phone and snapped off several pics. What of? Why the Dragon Master car, of course! It was an old, possibly foreign model sub-compact car, white in colour. It had plastic dragons of every size and description glued(epoxied?)all over it along with dragon stickers, a 2 foot tall Godzilla on the roof, and the pièce de résistance- a 6 foot flag pole with an American flag attached to the rear bumper!

And to think that people across the country take the piss out of us Californians for being weird.

Did they have SCA bumper stickers, or was it "Faire is not life"?

I thought you had taken a picture of two santas. That's what it looks like to me.

Looks like an abstract oil painting to me. But my phone is no better. In fact, I haven't figured out how to get my phone pics to my laptop.

And exactly what would you suggest I wear when I'm out dunning the public for donations, Mr. Blackstone? You think the cult game is so lucrative? HA. Even the clothes I wear have to perform double duty. I go home and throw this outfit right back over my BMW.

Thats not a medallion either, Miss Informed. Its a dish receiver. *snaps fingers defiantly*

gold plate jacked from Joseph Smith...dum, dum, dum, dum, dummm!
