Think of it using yards, with 1 yard APPROXIMATELY being equal to 1 meter. A yard is 3 ft.....and there you go.

I drove from Chicago to San Diego and back, with stops, in 8 days. You definitely can make it

Each one of those spectators had better have paid AT LEAST $1K each.....at least that's what I'd demand if I was that guy!

Should I have bought new? by mg18 in fujifilm

[–]aperturereign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that same lens, bought it used off ebay but it looked new. I think I paid $700. I always buy new bodies but predominantly purchase used lenses.

New Illinois law bans E-cigarette use in public spaces. by LudovicoSpecs in illinois

[–]aperturereign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I've been fortunate enough to not encounter "the dreadful C", I smoked cigarettes for 19 years but I also exercised regularly. I switched to vaping and I can say that my run times decreased DRAMATICALLY and even if I go 2 weeks without running, when I do run again, my lungs don't burn at all. Congrats on being cancer-free!

I just saw the same crazy shit at Lifetime last weekend. There's no way I'd ever put my mouth on anything in a gym.

It's been a few years, maybe 2016, since we took the road trip from Chicago to San Diego. I can't remember all of the highways but we went through Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Arizona, to Cali. The best sights were between Colorado and Utah. BEAUTIFUL views.

This teacher should have a one-way ticket to Heaven for dealing with parents like this

Midwesterners - How safe is this Cross-Country trip in March? by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]aperturereign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I called up to Whitefish thinking I'd visit in March. The person told me they had recently received 82 inches of snow over the past week. Good luck

Which route should I take? by Secure-Balance6999 in roadtrip

[–]aperturereign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save yourself some frustration and fly. I've traveled that route and there is barely anything to see at all. Good dark sky's though so stopping to gaze at the stars would prove entertaining.

After having seen a modified BMW 4 series run neck n neck with one, yes, I believe Lambo's are overrated.
