Australian (not so) Open
Thursday, January 22nd, 2004 at 2223Yesterday (22nd?) we went to the Australian Open for a day of tennis-watching. Great I thought, I’ll pack my big lens and get some photos of the players! Hurrah! Sadly, not so. I managed to get a few shots but then facist bastards security haulled me out of one of the courts and told me that the lens I was using was too big. Considering I only had a wideangle on me as an alternative, this really shot my mood through the head. Not only that, but the fact that 1000001 people out there were using compact digicams with much greater effective focal lengths than my lens such as this, this and this. Bloody ignorant security monkies, they really don’t have a clue. I even saw oen guy using a digital camcorder that I *know* to have a 40x zoom on it. Complete idiots. Not only this, but when I got home and tried to connect up my 80gb HDD to the local home computer, it got totally fried and all the data on it was destroyed, leaving me with no movies here in Oz, and also no way of getting my data back home unless I’m incredibly lucky in the coming days. THANKYOU Australian Open Security for ruining my day, I hate you all.
I’ll be posting the few shots that I did get soon, keep watching this space. I might even print a few out and go throw them at the security guards from over the fence, just to spite the ignorant muppets.
At least you got there , I have just got home from School work it out, enjoy the sunshine. and don’t get too pissed off, and on a serious note you are off my Xmas card list because you have not remembered my birthday on the 24th Ok
Ha autralian ‘open’ yeah it’s no good and yes security is ignorant: Bigger is worse… Man stupid lot
Grtz
oh oh den…I’m in trouble now aint I ?:/ I really cant express my sorrowness on the dead hdd ..that really really really sucks. What caused it??
Well about the guys that didnt allow you to shoot …ignorant indeed. Thing is, you cant change it – ‘xcept take your S7000 with you next time hehe.
Hope you got some nice things occuring to you as I speak, and that the HDD somehow fixes itself
