ThatGuy says:: I don't know what to say. You have been one of the most consistant producers of real camera magic. You've set up, lit, and captured true art so many times. You will be missed. And I will never type the "S" word under one of your photos. Good luck with the new gig. I hope to be in front of a tv at some point to catch the spot.

If they were smart, they'd let you direct the spot.

The Despot says:: wow, thanks one and all. this is a little like attending one's own funeral and i have to admit to being flattered by much of it, even amid the cries for shaming. but i figured, i'd rather go out with a bang and look great on the shame wall than just another bloke caught in idleness.

thanks, again, @mackle. i think the proudest day of my life, second only to the births of my children, was your comment on nov 9. hope all continues to go well with you guys. i'll still be lurking through march.
