Looks like Ebay will save the day and enable me to perhaps buy a Canon afterall. I'll go look at it in a store tomorrow.
[9:32:36 PM] []

I'm in digital camera hell. First, can I afford it? Then is it 1 megapixel or 2? 8megs of memory? Do I really need optical zoom? Kodak? HP? Fuji?

I've read review after review on Amazon and Epinions. The Kodak DX3500 is one I'm looking at. I really like the Canon cameras but they're way too pricey.

All I know is that I refuse to pay more than $500 for one. I don't understand why we don't have good $200 ones yet!? I think $200 is my general price point. If Blackberries, MP3 players, video capture boards were all $200 I'd easily have one of each.

At least I know which MP3 player I'll be getting: Archos 6000. Funny that I haven't bought it yet. But I don't really go out much so why do I really *need* it? I can probably put off buying it till the fall when I'll have a car to drive in.. Which hopefully by then the 20 gig will have dropped in price.

In order to stem the flood of incoming emails.. I was mistaken when I said Jonathan was going to be gone for six months. I really meant six weeks. See the music here was that LOUD.

Check out Rafi's Pride account (the cop car story is the best and screams Rafi get a digital camera!). Maeve still can't believe that we had never met before Saturday night but I don't. I've often gotten together with people I met on the web (now that can be mis-construed). Rafi even suggested we have a Waterloo blog party. Now that could be fun, but what would we talk about? We already know all about each others lives.

Natalie pointed me to mathNEWS's feature on Advanced Boy Watching which breaks down UW Mathies into nine boy types. I just asked her which one I am. She said Boy type four. I'll let you find out what that one is yourself :). I of course disagree and believe I'm a type nine. ..In general I don't read mathNEWS because it sucks and is geared towards Boy Type Ten (note: doesn't actually exist on the list). What is a type ten? They're the kind that run for Mathsoc office, have visited the comfy lounge more than once, and raise their hand in class to ask annoying leading questions that they know the answer to.

It's finally quiet here! The streets are still pretty dirty but they got all the stages outta here pretty quick in the dead of the night. The air conditioner is still not fixed.. UGH!
