O.K., Roger, since you are enjoying this... here's mine, from just 
yesterday's trip up Mt. Rainier:  Shot my first roll of Fuji Provia 100F.  
And then noticed when switching to Velvia 100 that my ASA dial had been set 
to 200 all day.  Blast!

Also managed to accidently trip the shutter once while simply holding the 
camera at waist level (at least the lens cap was off -- might just turn out 
to be the day's best pic!).

Took a couple of exposures on manual after using the spotmeter (OM-2S), 
thinking I had switched back to auto (but hadn't).

And of course, the most embarassing so far: having fun taking pics all day on 
a couple different occassions, only to discover no film was in the camera...  
bro-in-law found that very amusing.  His turn is coming.

I'm an IDIOT.  Sign me up.

Rich
