mas facts and photos

Okay, so (here's the earth, round) after writing my twenty five facts I have been thinking of more and more.  Part of them are things that deal with me, others are just questions that pop into my head.  I'll list a few and talk about politics a little bit.  
  • I hate politics.  Well, it is more of a love/hate relationship
  • The worst movie I have ever seen was Time Bandits
  • Any non spur of the moment pictures I take are taken with a film camera
  • I love Bill O'Reilly (I know!)
  • The worst thing in the world is religious people who try to convert and influence others
  • I will watch (and most likely enjoy) any Tim Burton or Coen Brothers movies
  • If I could, I would spend a summer traveling and staying at campgrounds
  • I am concerned with the state of music
  • I would rather drive than ride
  • I hated such classics as The Great Gatsby, Catch-22, and Slaughterhouse Five
  • I would enjoy learning how to properly box
Coming up next week, I will be getting two rolls of film back from *sigh* Wal-Mart.  It was either last week or two weeks ago, some snow fell here in the ICT and I took the opportunity to take some pictures at the nature center that is close to our apartment.  I am anxious to see how they turn out.  I will post a few here and more on Facebook.  When it comes to taking pictures, I enjoy using a film camera.  It feels real.  Digital cameras are great, you can review the pictures right away, but it seems cheap.  If you don't like the picture you take, boom deleted, with a push of a button.  With a film camera, you find something you want to take a picture of, check, double check, and triple check, and then focus.  Finally, take a picture (at least that is how I do it).  I don't see the talent it takes to take five or six pictures of something, review them all, and then take the best one and say 'look how good of a picture I took.'  It takes the art form out of taking pictures.
