I just got bored because noone else was posting. I can be funny all day but it's not very enjoyable alone.



Hmm...


You know you're a GWC when the mailman insists on putting on sterile gloves to pull your mail out of a sealed ziplock.

You know you're a GWC when the model asks where your tripod is and you pull out your 3" monopod.

You know you're a GWC when you've got bald spots in two places.

You know you're a GWC when Ansel Adams comes back from the grave just to throw something at you.

You know you're a GWC when your dog doesn't even want to watch you have sex.

You know you're a GWC when you go to The Howard Stern Show and get asked to leave by the model you tagged along with, who is about to go fart into a microphone.

You know that your a GWC when you use the same device to shoot your model that you do to tell your mother that you'll be home late for dinner.

The pathetic factor is multiplied by two if you're over 40 and this applies.

Hmmm, my daughter (who is four) has this camera.  Wouldn't it be fun just once to freak out the model by doing that?

I wonder if thing has a connection for my Pocket Wizards.

(And for the GWCs on board, "Pocket Wizard" is not a cute little name that I gave my penis.)

You know you are a GWC when you find the portfolio of that new 18 yr old MM model who has four out-of focus camphone headshot pics in her portfolio and states that she will pose nude for $200 an hr with a 3 hr minimum.  She's 5' 2" tall and weighs 145.

You immediately check your credid card balance and send her a PM.
