xrogers Posted August 7, 2009 Share #22 Posted August 7, 2009 I'm sorry. Here are some M9 Haikus. my M9 is damp as the rain smiles on me seals make life better The green lines were there but now they have passed away some things are not missed dots that catch color mega-dots of happiness more must be better sharp in the corners the lenses hide their beauty they want the M9 the light is waning Summilux is not enough lovely high iso old friends may pass on in the heart of the M9 Kodachrome lives on M8 denies it M9 knows the bitter truth black is not purple Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaryink Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share #25 Posted August 7, 2009 Ok, my last humble contribution to all of your wonderful prose. May I express these feelings through an algebraic equation? if: E = all the excess money I wish I had, + my M8, and M2+M4P=M6, M6+M7=M8-(CL+CLE), MP+M7=M8 Therefore: E=M9 squared.

dcoombs Posted August 9, 2009 Share #34 Posted August 9, 2009 Congratulations, Scaryink! This is truly one of the best threads I've read on this forum, period. You have inspired Leica owners to heights that I don't think even they were aware of. Delightful reading, all of them! Well done. This should become a sticky!
