Just bought a new Panasonic DMC-GF3K today. So I'm currently waiting for the battery to charge up (which is like watching water boil) then I'm gonna play around with. After I read through the manual of course. I know it's not a super awesome camera like most of you guys seem to have, but meh.

I think he's wondering how does he get them to install the SS bumper instead, not whether he should

Victim of a hit and run tonight

There's a good sign I guess, someone witnessed it and took the person's license plate and left me a note on my windshield. The worst part is that I was parked so far away from the place I was going to, and I took 2 spots on the corner (there's a cement barrier on one side, and I'm taking two spots for extra measure). I come back, and as I'm walking towards my driver side, I just notice a ding on my rear wheel well, just under the door moldings. Thankfully I've got his license plate, and I hope this person pays for his sins and my grief.

That really sucks. It's lucky someone wrote down the plate number. I had my car get hit and the insurance company wanted $500 because they couldn't identify who it was
