Current Gear List [10.17.11]

The thoughts, musings, and photos of Patrick Michael Chin.

"O Lord my God, help me to be obedient without reserve, poor without servility, chaste without compromise, humble without pretense, joyful without depravity, serious without affectation, active without frivolty, submissive without bitterness, truthful without duplicity, fruitful in good works without presumption, quick to revive my neighbor without haughtiness, and quick to edify others by word and example without simulation." - St. Thomas Aquinas

So here it is again. Not too much has changed, but I’ve again been getting asked a good bit about a lot of this, so I thought I’d update this to the most current list of gear that I’m using.
