Polaroid 600 film in an sx-70 and vice versa

Currently my Polaroid uses 600, it's an Impulse Portrait but at one time I had both Polaroid 1000 witch uses SX-70 film and I had a Polaroid Sun 600 LMS which uses 600. But  I never knew I could swap the film and because of that I had to stop using the pretty white one with the rainbow because I could only find the 600. now that I know this I want to get a nother Polaroid 1000 to play with.

My wish list...

We all have wants and wishes and I have many, like learning Italian and getting my Italian citizenship(working on that now) learning to play the guitar (also working on this one) I want my family and those I care about to have residue income. so that we can remain above the poverty line and not have to worry about the bills and such. and then I have all these things I want things like a Fiat 500 from the 70's and a Kleinlieferwagen (it's a VW postal truck that was used in northern Europe) I want a house for my family one that we can enjoy with room to do all the things we dream of doing and like to do. and I want cameras all kinds mostly large format film cameras and instant cameras like this Polaroid SX-70

Ten Rules for Being Human
by Cherie Carter-Scott http://www.bluinc.com/free/human10.htm

1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.
2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."
4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.
5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."
7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
10. You will forget all this.

In hopes of making a buck or two




I just started using Twitter and signed into a program called Ad.ly in hopes of making some money. I got the idea from John Chow (read my last post). it seems that it will be a simple matter of getting people to watch you on twitter in order to make money, that and getting advertisers to back you. The link below is my Referral link, if your interested in making some extra money go check it out.

The insperation for this blog



John Chow at http://www.johnchow.com/ is the main reason that I started this blog. Some people may think it to be wrong to make money with your blog but I don’t think so. Maybe with some blogs it is wrong to make money but not all of them. And if money is not coming into your life by a job of some kind then it is more wrong to sit and do nothing just because someone says it would be wrong to make money. It’s not wrong to make money so long as you do it honestly.
A blog is a great way to make money and share information plus I have even made a few friends this way, so have fun blogging and get rich doing it if you can.

Greasemonkey




I have been using Greasemonkey Link for a long time now and I love it. If you don't know what Greasemonkey is, it is an add on to Firefox that lets you add written script to Firefox. this script will allow you to do extra special tricks with websites such as copy content that you otherwise couldn't. My favorite script is Rapidshare Links Checker Link this little script will check download links of Rapidshare, Megaupload and possibly others, and let you know if there good or not. If the link is good you get a green check mark and if it is bad you get a red X and a line through the link, very useful.

But sometimes when rapidshare upgreads Greasemonkey stops working, and even though I am a bit computer savy I still have to have my IT friend come help me fix the problem. Well it happend again but just after my friend went home, so I didnt feel like calling him to come back just for this. so I did some Googling and found Greasemonkey FIX Link. So now I got my link shecker back I hope next time it will be that easy. in any case if your having truble with Greasemonkey try instaling Greasemonkey FIX it should do the trick. if not find a good IT guy to help you. laters

Keep Film Alive!



 Your Instamatic camera is not obsolete.

Thanks to Solaris and frugalphotographer.com and small companies like Solaris. These companies are beginning to reproduce old film types. remember the old box camera like the Brownie 620 for example, in the past you had to re spool a new roll of 120 film and if you didn't have an empty 620 spool you were out of luck. but that is starting to change a quick trip on Google and you will find a number of site that carry once obsolete types of film. here are some of the links I have found...
