My E-1 is only six weeks old.  I'm beginning to really, really like it.  When 
cooler weather gets here, I know I'll like it even more better than I do now.  
It's kinda hard to judge results shot through house and SUV windows from 
air-conditioned comfort.  This is mad dogs and Englishmen weather, and if I 
ain't got to be out in it, I ain't going out in it!

But my wife's new camera is supposed to arrive tomorrow, an Olympus Stylus 800. 
 Now she's going to have 3MP more than me!  What must I do?

I think I'll just lie and tell her the E-1 is actually 10MP.  Yeah, that'll 
work.  I'll say that the "1" is just short for 10.  She won't know any 
different.  I prevaricate like a pro, and I hate not being the lead dog, so 
unless somebody's got a better idea, that's what I'm going to do.  Probably 
better than telling her Fed-X lost the package.

By the way, it was $50 cheaper at Adorama than at B&H.  I was surprised.  I may 
have to reevaluate my 30-year loyalty.
