   greylox.... BINGO! http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg264/copmom_photo/chickens.jpg

   and second mention goes to maizy!

   The neighbors chickens were coming over here to eat the cat kibble we put out! Must post what else we saw eating here! Here's another critter eating cat kibble, this was taken through the kitchen door window at night with no flash: http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg264/copmom_photo/Racoon.jpg

   This is why I love my Olympus camera, I have it set to no flash, (or it would bounce back through window glass), and the main feature is it's great in low light situations and has a glass lens.

   copmom - I've heard of attracting unwanted wildlife and domestic animals by leaving food out. But Chickens, seriously? There's a first for everything. :)

   maizeydaze.. we've also had oppossums here eating too. There's no telling what else we're feeding when we're not looking out at night!

   When I saw Maizey's pic I figured gray HAD to have it, they looked exsctly the same. Good job on the pic and the guess. I'm coming to the conclusion I am not very good at this. If you only knew how much I have been racking my brain to figure these things out. UGH!

   I think I'd better go get a few chores done b/c I am starting to feel kinda achey and I've been coughing.....yuk.....I'm probably catching "the BUG"......UGH #2!

   Maizey...I was starting the camera research and that Kodak Z812IS looks very promising.
   Thanks again for the tip.

   One more thing, if anyone's interested, HP offers free online classes including some about digital photography etc. Here's the web address (hope it comes through as a link) http://h30240.www3.hp.com/campuses/campus.jsp?campusId=1303&mcid=hhonav&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

   goodgotd.. I agree with you. If possible I try to get refurbished when I can. They still have a new warranty, have been gone over with a fine tooth comb, and lots cheaper than buying full price. In fact the replacement HD I just got from Western Digital is refurbished. When I was shopping for a replacement coffee pot, I contacted Krup's, since theirs are good ones, and got a refurbished for about half the price. Instead of $119 it was $49. When someone returns something to a store they send it back to the company, and they refurbish them.

   Buckleysmom - Don't go by what I say about cameras, check Runes thread again. Besides he probably knows more that I. Check out the comments about Kodaks software. Maybe someone who already owns a Kodak will know more about them. I went with the Canon for myself. I like it and Canon has been making good cameras for a long time. Kodak started out making really nice film cameras but began getting cheesy in the late 60's or so.

   Hubby just came home with some Alka Seltzer Plus (he worked 3AM-11AM). Says he starting to feel crappy. I got out the garlic necklace and voodoo charms to ward off his evil. :)

   I took a couple of web design classes from HP a couple of years ago. They have a lot of different classes to offer.

    Hey, let's start/continue to post camera links and conversation to Runes thread: Before you buy a Digital Camera. That way we can keep all the good info together! :)

    This is very easy; I think you should find 2 of the 3 "ingredients".

    graylox- i think i see peppers. maybe avocado or mushroom (one looks like melon but i don't know what that would be doing with peppers-assuming you didn't throw this all together just for this game). the white bit underneath looks like some kind of seafood to me, maybe shrimp or calamari.

    maizey-i love, love, love the new game idea! i really do get a kick at seeing pics of people i chat with, and trying to guess would be so much fun.

    We really have not had enough people who said whether or not they would play the "Guess Who?" game. So far it's just Buckleysmom, copmom, funkymom and me. Did I miss anyone?

    Graylox - Nice meal! Was the dish for a party? Or do you always make such beautiful dishes?

    funkymom - Very observant of you to see those ingredients. Good job!

    no no

    funky - the hubby posted the "no no" above. He read your answer to me while I was in the kitchen. He was surprised it posted. He only plays poker online. :)

    funkymom - Don't give him a big head! There's no telling what that might lead to...
