    Who Has A Projector?

    Very cool, woodsroad! I used to have to thread up a Moviola upright to screen dailies for my first boss many years ago. I still shoot 35mm still when I am shooting for myself. As a cinematographer by profession, the days of 35mm origination are pretty much certainly behind me now. For the...

    Who Has A Projector?

    I've got two 16mm projectors (one xenon, and one regular tungsten). Also have about a dozen 16mm feature films in my collection. Most are film Noir &/or B&W, but I do have a few color films too. No digital projectors.

    Plug Your B&M Blend

    Father Dempsey's Blend & Danny Kaye's blend are both from Kramer's Pipe and Tobacco shop in Beverly Hills, CA. It's the closest proper B&M pipe shop to me, and I do like both blends.

    20 Feet From Stardom - A+!

    My very good friend, and camera operator of many years shot quite a bit of the film. He's an occasional pipe smoker too! I really enjoyed the film as well. Any music lover should, I think.

    Dedicated Fishing Thread-Pictures& Discussion

    Petes03, they're like a Speckled sea trout. Salt water all the way. They are allegedly called Weakfish because they have somewhat weak jaws. They are one of the more beautiful (and tasty) inshore Northeast Atlantic species in my opinion.

    Pet peeves

    This morning I just re-discovered a forgotten pet peeve. People who dispose of their chewing gum on the street or sidewalk. Unfortunately, I re-discovered my detestation of this particular form of littering the hard way.
