Can you believe it? Kodak got me started on my favorite hobby. When I was 16 my little Kodak 35-mm was my constant companion. Soon it was a passion and I took over Mom's fruit cellar as a darkroom and did all my own film finishing and enlargements. And now the company once synonymous with picture taking doesn't even sell cameras. Perhaps Cheryl and I were not the only ones that start using Canon (our favorite camera for almost two decades now). But, there will always be a sweet spot in our hearts for Kodak, which is why we collect them for our formal living room. Here is one that Cheryl found (and, sorry, Kodak, the picture of our old Brownie camera was taken a few minutes ago with my iPad2).
Seems to me that Jim Collins has some things to say about that in his book, Good to Great.

If you have an old camera you'd like to sell, let us know.
Do you have some old photos or scrapbooks from times when we might have been together in the same place at the same time, please send them to me privately by clicking this email link for photos@blogs.docdevore.com. Please! With sugar on it?. Trust me - they won't end up here unless you give me permission.
Because you have your fun assignments for the week, I am going dance around the pool listening to my favorite tunes while thinking about all those great memories captured with my Kodak of old (Send that email.)
Be sure to get some breakfast, and take Clif Bar with you.
The Disclaimers, Shameless and Legal Stuff
Thanks for spending some time with me.
Okay, the legal stuff. Listen up.
I am not a doctor. I am not a certified trainer. I am not a professional body builder. I m in better shape and I do know a lot of stuff that those experts told me, but I don't have a paper that says so, and they haven't told me everything they know yet. Or as Uncle Buck said: "You should always consult a professional, like your doctor, before you begin any weight loss program, and you should ask an expert before you try some of the foods and exercise that Cheryl and Doc use." In other words, this blog contains my opinion on what might work and is for folks who are serious about changing their life. It should not be construed as anything more than what I found on my journey, and how I learned to use it. So you have now been warned: Do attempt the journey on your own without consulting a professional or gaining parental approval. And by the way, there is some other legal stuff on this page about who owns the trademarks and photos and copyright stuff. Most of what I have is not original, but the way I package it up IS, so be sure to read ALL of my rules. Here they are: All postings on my blogs are the opinions or thoughts by Floyd V.
