Dad Gum It!

Near as I can figure, those 14x microscope eps are about the same magnification as a 17mm plossl. Now where could I get 17mm plossls fer that micrcoscope that would have sufficient eye relief (ER) to allow me to wear my spectacles while observing through the microscope? Huh!

Perhaps I should just forget about the 17mm and go for longer focal length eps with nice wide fields. Like 25 or 30mm, maybe with lotsa nice ER. That may be the ticket. Yepper.

Maybe someone will vend me a 25mm plossl just like this one here, somewhere. There it is, off to the east. See how the lens is big and wide and right on top of this ep. The eyeguard is removed so you can see what I'm talking about. That particular lens is right at 23mm diameter. It may be a LOMO but it sure doesn't look like the LOMOs depicted on the LOMO America site. Who makes these dang eps? Why are they so different from all the other eps? How come all this telescopery and microscopery is trial and error when it comes to equipment acquisition? Why do humans get married instead of practicing polymorphous eroticism? What's the name of the current Pope?

Calm down Crumby. Yer overwrought and beside yerself.

Yer right Red. What time is it anyhow? My watch has veritably give up the ghost. Did you know that Seiko is Okies spelled backwards? What kind of goofy spell is that?

Crumby, I told ye to calm yerself. It's nigh onto 2 AM fer Goddess Sakes. So the both of us need to be reclinin' on the Bosom of the Goddess.

All righty then Red. I'm fixin' to pack it in.

All righty then. And no more hollerin' out loud. Yer scarin' the pigs.

All righty then.

Later. Somewhat later.

But I the Crumby Ovate am fairly lathered up. Soooooooooo. I snuck back in here. I have to be quiet though. Now where's that picture. Ah ha! There it is, off to the north northeast. If ye click on that particular picture to make it bigger, ye'll notice that I, Crumby obscured part of it with grayness. That's to conceal a partial nasty lookin' digit print. But look up there right to the right of the white printin'. I didn't do that. It's printin' that has been painted over, er somethin'. It don't show up except to the keen vision of the camera. What's the real story behind this ep? Someone or some thing, oooooooooo!, took the trouble to paint over it, maybe. This has to do with free trade, betcha.
