    This is funny, yet so very true. "#28: staring at attractive people in public" almost got me into serious trouble once while in South Beach in Miami. Was down there having dinner with a group including my wife and South Beach is known for some of the most attractive women in the world. At the next table sat this incredibly gorgeous woman and I went into stare mode just wondering how nice it would be to feather a light from the left and take that picture.

    Into my right ear I heard "you see somehing you like...?" Ooops...was I staring?

    Luckily we'd both had a bit of wine and we both rationalized that I wasn't in my best state of mind and got over it within a couple of days.

    Guilty on most counts, but really guilty of 5, 20, 31, 38.

    I think only one or two of those apply to me, the rest are just a sign of a crazy person. :P
    If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.

    My wife says too many of them apply to me. She laughed, thought it was very funny.

    I think I've only accomplished half of those things, but I am also half-backpacker so most of the ones that involve other people are irrelevant. The folks that hike with me are usually happy to have someone carrying 10# of cameras and getting much-better-than-cellphone photos of them on their trip!
