Beerball Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 link The first was a railroad worker who had driven from Arkansas to pick up 1,580 rolls of film that he had just paid $15,798 to develop. Jim DeNike, 53, loading a dozen boxes that contained nearly 50,000 slides into his old maroon Pontiac. He explained that every picture inside was of railroad trains and that he had borrowed money from his father’s retirement account to pay for developing them.

Chef Jim Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I hate to sound like the old fart that I am but it seems like just yesterday you had to wait a week to get your pictures developed and what you got however they came out. How many times to you get the whole roll back and none of them came out. Then they "invented" one hour photo developing. You still got a roll of crap sometimes but then it took only an hour. Now it's instant and you immediately dump the ones that don't look good and instead of passing around photos you pass around your phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim in Anchorage Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 No Kodachrome? Is that the end of nice bright color's? What about the greens of summer? Will I no longer think all the worlds a sunny day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Was cleaning out one of the closets and ran across 18 rolls of undeveloped film. Fortunately regular film so going to drop them off at good old CVS today to see what hidden blackmail material might be found in the shots.

Will I no longer think all the worlds a sunny day? One of my favorite Paul Simon songs. Sticks in my head like crazy. Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away.

Cugalabanza Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) You could jump back to the Ozzy thread and start singing ... "Momma I'm coming home .." Uh oh, dangerous clash of musical styles. Two extremely different songs in my head at the same time. Slight headache, wooziness... getting worse... feeling disoriented... pressure... Great, now my mind is blown again. Edited December 31, 2010 by gringo starr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linksfiend Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 One of my favorite Paul Simon songs. Sticks in my head like crazy. Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away. +1 Always loved the plucking bass-like line I'm guessing palyed on a regular guitar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hSXKjHDKkY#t=0m17s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
