I had meant to keep my blog sort of up to date this week, but it's been a real bitch of a week so far. I've been working on a large PAYING client project that's required the creation of an enormous amount of original content. Luckily, I'm just about finished with the writing portion of the project, but the process has left me sort of burned out by the end of each day, which has made me seek the comfort of the couch and Directv. Tonight; however, there's nothing really on the tube, so here I am, listening to the latest edition of MacBreak Weekly.
Funny Shit
Unless you've been living under a rock, disconnected from the net, then you've probably heard about the new Microsoft Home Party campaign for the upcoming Windows 7 release. Taking a page from the 1970's Tupperware Parties (I remember my mother doing those), Microsoft is selecting a number of average people to host neighborhood parties to introduce Windows 7 to their guests. Yes, they are as ridiculous as they sound, but apparently, it's completely real.
With the need to sell my FZ6 before getting an FJR, I figured my wife's request to go have a look at the FJR down at Ron Ayers in Greenville, NC last Friday was simply so she could see what I was constantly yammering about over the past few months. I was wrong... 
Well, my pursuit of a "new to me" FJR1300A, without financing it, is now underway. The mission: sell as many "toys" and other stuff to save up enough money to get into the $5-6k range that a used Gen II FJR starts at. This means that my baby (2004 FZ6) is now up on Craigslist, awaiting a new owner! I've already sold my telescopes and some other stuff, so the path to Feejerism is starting to take shape!
