Didn't we just go over about asking questions like this. Did you ever think that maybe she keeps it in the "top" drawer and grabbed it in the dark by mistake? Now you see why it might have needed a trip to the sink? Can't very well take the lens to the camera store like that!!!

EDIT: Wait, that can't it. Eli would have just come out and told us if that was the reason.

OK Eli, why was the lens over the sink, but no camera?

Is top drawer like Top Shelf?

I don't just have 1 lens. There are 4 lenses with different functions and sizes. Two of them are actually useless.

Cameras are awesome! Actually, you may not know this but I'm neurotic and take pics with both my iphone and camera. That way I can post like Eli Witness News...up to the minute updates.

You should be on the other side of it, you don't need a camera.

Hotboat if you want me to fly you from Phoenix to Havasu this weekend I can have Mario Andretti Eli work something out. I flew to the camera shop in 15 min ;)

The deductable will probably be close to the cost of the lens

My deductible is $250. I filed a claim and now I have to wait for the claims adjuster to call me and let me know if it's covered. Cross your fingers please!!!

Great idea!!!


Sent from my Bat Cave...

They said it's not covered! I'm so pissed!


Sent from my Bat Cave...

I was able to get an estimate for the repair. $135. Phew that's not as bad as my deductible or replacement. And I cried for nothing!

I hope they can actually fix it and don't change their mind when the get the lens :)
