Update: 5D is still sick. Mirror fell down. Extended warranty will cover all the repairs. I might not get it on time for my San Francisco trip at the end of this month. I'm in the market for a replacement. I was too late to respond to an offer for a 5D II for 2Gs. :(
Any idea what group I should add this to? Thanks.

Chained Rock is located at the top of Pine Mountain in Pine Mountain State Resort Park. In this photo, the chain doesn't look very big; but, I can assure you it is huge when you see it up close.
According to legend, some children of Pineville, Kentucky (the town that sits directly beneath Pine Mountain) were afraid that the large rock outcropping that loomed over Pineville would come tumbling down and destroy the town.
Apparently, the parents of these children would tell them there was no need to worry because the big rock was chained to the mountain.
In 1933, a group of local citizens, members of the CCC, the Kiwanians, and the Boy Scouts, formed the “Chained Rock Club” in order to generate added tourist revenue for the new state park.
On June 24, the club obtained a huge chain from an old steam shovel from a Virginia quarry. The chain weighed a 1.5 tons. It had to be cut in half before a four-mule team could pull each portion up the mountain in two trips.
Atop the mountain, the crew welded the chain back together, and stretched it 101 feet from the rock (approx. 200 ft. x 75 ft.) to the cliff with steel rods, two feet long. The holes were drilled by hand.

Taken on the beach at New Quay in Wales while waiting for a boat trip. I've decided I don't really like this.
These Uh-Ohs are all trying to eat one another. Good luck, guys!

This origami chain is my new origami model. It's made entirely with folded copy paper (no tape, no glue), and it can be used to lift as much as 18 kilograms / 35 pounds!

Had a fun walk along Alligator Alley with a photographer friend, recently. I didn't come out with much worth sharing beside thing one.

Nothing like listening to a bunch of old songs with the word 'chain' in the title.
From left is Sam Cooke's woeful hit from 1960 called Chain Gang, which peaked at No.2 on the US Billboard charts and at No. 9 in the UK.
Next is the song Chains, written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, recorded by The Beatles for their first album, Please Please Me released in 1963. It was only released as an album track with lead vocals by George Harrison.
Aretha Franklin's Chain of Fools was released in 1968 and reached No.2 on the US Billboard charts and No. 1 on the US Billboard R&B charts cementing Aretha's standing as the Queen of Soul. An amazing song by an amazing singer.
Ball and Chain is the Big Mama Thornton song recorded live and released in 1968 on the album Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & the Holding Company. It proved that Janis Joplin could do justice to the blues with her powerful rendition of the song.
The Pretenders were a proto-punk/ new wave band led by guitarist-songwriter Chrissie Hynde. They released Back on the Chain Gang in 1982. It reached No. 7 on the US Billboard charts and No. 17 in the UK. I remember this song getting a lot of air play, at least in southern Ontario.
We're Here looks at Chains today.
I found this poor little bird chained next to a shop probably to attract the attention of bypassing tourists- which worked pretty well I must say. He seemed completely disturbed and behaved quite abnormal constantly twitching and jumping around. No wonder: can't be the best life he's living chained to that small pole.
