Gross Consumerism and All That Jazz I was checking out one of my favorite online deal sites, and I see that I am just in time for a deal on the Canon PowerShot A95 I have been lusting after for a short time.  My hand is on the mouse, ready to pull the trigger for this deal shortly after 9:00 AM.  This will make me slightly late for my meeting this morning, but that's not a big deal.  I MUST HAVE THIS CAMERA! Only thing I will need to grab following the purchase is a big honkin' compact flash (CF) card and some rechargeable batteries.  The batteries are not a big deal, as Sam's Club has the rechargeable Energizer jobs I had in my old camera.  They worked pretty well, so I am a repeat buyer.  Now, I just need to find a decent price on a decent capacity CF card.  Aside from that, I politely reminded myself that this morning I needed to hear some jazz.  Thanks to the wonder of the Internets and my memory of life in Boston, I am listening to the Jazz Spectrum on WHRB.  Thankfully, the University has a nice fat pipe.  UPDATE: Camera is bought and on its way!!! 9:05:17 AM    comment []  trackback []
