An observation and a question.

[agamemnus]

1.) vase: Vahze or veyse? Never mind the definitional pronunciation; how would you say it in English or (an)other language(s) of your choice(s)? I am aware that "vase" is not an English word, which is why I ask how you would say it in a specific language. For example, I say it different in English (veyse) vs. Russian (vahze), for instance.

2.) It has come to my attention that an 8-month old baby snapper has a bigger attention span than most human American children. (up to and including 17 years old)



3) Sorry about the turtle being so grainy btw. My camera blows-- it is from about 5 years ago I think? It's a Coolpix L5 (edit: IT IS L5). SOOOOOOO.... any suggestions on a sub-$400 camera?
