p.1 #1 · My Presidential Platform


After a very frustrating day, I have decided to run for president on the digital photography ticket. I plan to appeal across all party lines for unity and directness of focus. Here is my platform.

All digital visual devices may not have hot pixels or dead pixels. In the event that any are present, the President of the company must personally come to your house and fix or replace with a device of higher quality that works.

Officials of ink jet printer companies must do the same in the event of clogs or ink dripping. All printers will be warranted for five years against clogging or feed problems or fading colors. Naturally quality profiles will be free.

All ink jet paper will be half price for the first year with additional reductions thereafter. Officials who produce surly or offshore, inept, unqualified or unavailable help will be defenestrated. Repeat offernders will be imprisoned in cells covered with beautiful artwork that has visible imperfections--from their products. As a last resort, the incurable will be fed into wood chippers for the public amusement.

All devices will be calibrated; should the manufacturer attempt to insert proprietary solutions he/she will be force fed in a barn full of geese being fattened for foie gras.

All inkjet printers will be filled for life. Free.

My second year will deal with lens sharpness and focus, with similar punishments for laggards. Lenses that are sharp on only one side merit special punishment, to be determined.

Any additions? I feel better already....

And, in extreme cases, made to wear (and explain) an ellipsis in public.....

... and shot at dawn if their ellipsis consists of more than 3 dots (or periods)!

Those that eschew capitalization and punctuation will be forced to listen to recordings of political speeches until they agree to mend their ways.
