Those press covering the Olympics sure do have a plum life. They bundle off to Vancouver for 16 days of watching ice-skaters embarrassing themselves<\/a>, and ruthless Russian bobsledders<\/a> showing their dark sides. Oh, and they get lens-shaped thermoses.<\/p>\n

The story goes that a Microsoft employee by the name of Josh Weisberg wandered into the Canon press tent at the Olympic Press Center, and got given a 70-200mm Canon L-series lens. Or so he thought, probably tucking it safely in his backpack before Canon realized they had gifted him a lens instead of a branded pen or hat.<\/p>\n

I hope he wasn’t too disappointed when he realized it was a thermos. I’d happily take it off his hands. [PDN Pulse<\/a> via CrunchGear<\/a>]<\/p>\n
