It seems to me, at the end of the day, with all that being said, that's not necessary.

Hey, MS-14...didn't I see you "catch" somebody else for this same thing? Yes, I did, because you said almost the exact same thing..."then and only then, you can attempt to dazzle us with your wit" or something stupid like that.

Are you the GD no thread repeat po-lice?

Hey, F-16 didn't I see a MIG shoot your ass down? Yes, you did see me catch somebody else for this same thing. And yes, I am the Goddamn no thread repeat po-lice, essay! Joo got a prah-bum, mang?

The rules of this forum clearly state that repeating topics is forbidden so, I am simply performing a civic e-duty. Why don't you go outside and practice falling down...I'll be out there in a minute.

Say, any of you peppy young people know where a local Fotomat might be? I'd like to get some pictures developed from my Instamatic. Is there still a Fotomat in that parking lot near the 7-11 and Burger Chef at Keene Mill and Rolling Road?

Would the Fotomat sell flashcubes, too? If not, might DrugFair would have some in stock?

Thank you kindly.

If DrugFair doesn't have Flashcubes, you might find some at Peoples Drug

I think Dart Drug carries them too, right next to the Super Dooper Double Looper car racing set.

Penn Camera is closing stores and Kodak is filing for bankruptcy. Who needs a camera or film when your SmartPhone can do it all. Join the trash heap of BetaMax VCR, eight-track cassettes, and Palm Pilots. If you can't keep up, you will be crushed. Capitalism takes no prisoners.

Most professional photographers adopted high quality digital cameras 10 years ago. Very few use film these days, especially for something like weddings.

Thanks for posting another thread on this, that was bravely done. I assume you don't miss the AOL install disc though, luckily it still works!

Dominion Camera down in Falls Church, West Broad Street I'm pretty sure.
Also snapfish.com does film with pretty nice quality.

I think that you can still get your 110 cartridges for you Kodak Instamatic developed at Grand Union grocery stores. Highs Dairy Stores might do it as well. While you are there you might pickup a few long play albums. Also, don't forget to stop by the local Merry-go-Round store to get a nice burnt-orange leisure suit for your next outing at the disco. Man, I hope my Chevy Monte Carlo is back from the shop so that I can take it out this Saturday. I'll have to stop by the Sinclair station to fill the tank with Hi-test.

I just found my old Kodak Brownie camera. You remember those from "a few years back", right? Yeah...I believe I took some pictures of the crucifixion on it. Of course, it was the camera that once you're done with the roll of film, you send the entire camera into Kodak and they process the film, print your photos and then load a new roll of film and mail everything back to you! The whole mess costs about 28 cents. Hell, it only took 3 weeks! Who needs digital photography?
