I've been disciplining myself to keep track of my toys in conjunction with this leather satchel I carry around, but that discipline broke down yesterday apparently.
The new Nikon Coolpix has been a joy, purchased in March of last year. The last picture I took with it: Sick Jokes (a collection) and my quad shot latte, at Fresh Pot adjacent Powell's on Hawthorne. Presumably I threw it back in the satchel at that point.
However there's no indication (so far) the camera ever made it home, although that's where I went next. Maybe it'll turn up. Probably it went to the same Negative Universe as my Paul Kaufman hat. I find it disturbing when I can't put my finger on just when and where the sleight of hand occurred, me that dupe of my own legerdemain.
I still have the Olympus Stylus as a fall back. Those 14x zoom shots and richer colors will be absent from the Photostream for awhile, looks like.
Actually, I'm so attached to this camera that, finding it on sale for only $207, I grabbed another (free shipping). If I find the other one I'll make it, or the new one, a gift to someone.
I learned from Math Forum that Dr. William Thurston has died at age 65. He was one of my professors at Princeton, for honors calculus.
