Yeah, I had one when some fundies decided to visit college and preach hatred for everyone. I would have given an awful lot to get a shot of several dozen students, united together, regardless of race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation, to mock the spindly, vulture-lady strutting up and down and screaming about how her loving god would send us all to hell.

I've wished I had my Pentax SLR with me easily hundreds of times.

I was at an arcade waiting outside one day because i was hot from playing the " ddr " back in my wannabe AZN days ... and a guy in a speedo with a pink top hat came running over and started dancing to a boom box ... then he jumped in the window of a car that pulled up and speed off

A couple weeks ago, my science group was opening an old mac. It was probably a decade old and boy was it a bitch to open it. It would've been great to have a camera take a shot of each step.

I couldn't find my camera when I was in Istanbul and then several weeks later there it was amongst the rest of my stuff.
That really sucked.

I needed a camera for someone to catch me flying 10 meters into the air while having Ski.

To be honest, I'm not sure, the family I stayed with for the first few days took me off to see the volcanic stuff because I'm into that sort of thing, it was in some sort of park which you could only get into if you were a member of some sort of trust, it wasnt too far away from Lava Butte, I seem to recall. Sorry Howedar, my knowledge of Oregon geography is limited.

It was however one of the coolest experiences I have ever had, not a sound, standing on top of a massive obsidian flow, awesome it was, in the original sense of the word.

At least you didn't have two guys, one with a huge vertical banner sign and another with an equally tall cross.

Actually, my fundies were rather amusing. There was the vulture-lady, as I said earlier, but she also brought some of her brood along with her. The poor kids (I really felt sorry for them, I could see they had a lifetime of brainwashing to look forward to) were garbed in what appeared to be dresses made out of tablecloths and curtains. Anyways, the vulture-lady was railing on about how bad sex is and how she would never let her children turn into such 'wanton whores'. Unbeknownst to her at this point, one of her daughters was innocently climbing a tree behind her...in a dress. Needless to say, we had a rather amusing time pointing out the 'pure' daughter's apparent exhibitionist fetish.
