    It's the Friday after Thanksgiving and I'm working

    Anyone else?
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Nope. Still lying in bed and I smell bacon cooking downstairs. Truthfully though, I'd rather be working, so don't feel bad.

    Kind of. Down in the office reading a couple documents and sketching out a few thoughts for a conference I am facilitating this next Wednesday. Sunday will be a work day though--as a bunch of stuff that needs to go out Monday morning will be prepared.

    Today is "German Breakfast" day. For the past decade, the day after Thanksgiving we have made this a tradition. A German breakfast consists of all different kinds of cheeses, meats, breads--coupled up with lots of coffee, butter, and eggs! I am getting an urge to get into the Camembert and Stilton right now...

    It may be a steal but just a bit out of my price range..... I would be maxed out at about six and hoping to get a zoom lens also...

    The refrigerator will be putting a big dent in the account..

    ETA:
    If it doesn't have to be a DSLR, the Canon SX50 is looking good (friggin telescope on a camera -- I want one, but have the SX40):

    Real steal (today only) on a really great pocket cam:

    I got this deal last year on the S95; probably the best deal I ever got on a camera -- love that thing.

    I'm off (but doing some household chores) and 'DSG has to work until 10:30 tonight. I'm gonna go play radios with an area ham friend after she leaves for work and I get some things done around here.

    Oh, wow. Way to give the customer choices, after getting a budget lead.

    Good job, now close the deal. You want a gig at Wolf Camera? ;)
