Chris' geek code
 
Ok so far I get the part about how early you have to get up to moderate the forum and how little it pays. And how the latest image and video software costs. Fair enough, but we all gotta pay.

Where the rebus got me was the Las Vegas part? How tall was she?

Anyway, if someone can also begin to decypher the tag code that would be helpful. I think the release date for Canon's next model is buried in there.

Computers are fun and I enjoy using them. I play a mean game of DOOM! and can use a word processor without resorting to the manual too often. I know that a 3.5" disk is not a hard disk. I also know that when it says 'press any key to continue', I don't have to look for a key labeled 'ANY'.
