Blah Blah Blah Video Cameras

My new Brevis35mm adapter is here!!! So without having to explain to you what that is, I'll just give you a Wiki link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth-of-field_adapter

So basically, to make it short, a DOF adapter will help give my video a more of a film look, with much better depth of field. I'll also be purchasing a canon lens that I'll then put at the end of the Brevis35.

So with all that, all on my JVC HD7, I'm sure to have a pretty strange and lengthy looking camera setup.

Dear Reader,

So I had this interesting little thought the other day: Why do people always address others at the beginning of  letters by saying 'Dear'. This thought had never really occurred to me, until I really began to think about it. Now it makes complete sense to start a letter with Dear, if that letter is directed to, say, a loved one. Or in other cases, someone who is DEAR to you, and I understand that it's just the formal way of beginning a letter. But for example, say I were to write a letter to Director Michal Bay. I would start by saying: "Dear Michal Bay,...", right? But wait.. Michal Bay isn't dear to me.. And now all I can think of while thinking upon this is: "To my dear beloved Michal Bay"...

...But I hate Michal Bay...
