Holy cow, free prints at ArtsCow!

I just learned about ArtsCow.com on the Fiskateers board tonight. Wow, what great pricing they offer!

Two dollar bills

What a bust the two dollar bill was. I’ll never understand why the feds printed them in the first place. Did they really think they’d catch on? Way to save us space in the old wallets, there. I received the following in an e-mail today and it made me laugh aloud. I’ve run across people […]

The Sony DSLR-A300 is sweet!

Shopping for a digital SLR

Sarah’s video doing so well in Mutt Madness has provided us with unexpected cash. I have to admit, I really liked Howie’s philosophy when we talked about what to do with the money and he said to me, “money you’ve earned with your camera you should use for cameras”.
For almost ten years I’ve been wanting […]
