    Only a month and 1.5 weeks till the holiday season. Any plans on buying something you have wanted all year long? I'm planning to buy a Semi-Pro Digital Camera. Canon, S3 series or Powershot perhaps. :cool:

      Yeah, I'd like to buy some peace on earth rather than having my taxes go to the warmongers. Marc

      Nobody would disagree with that, it may fail on type though. typedef peaceonearth is not a class derived from typedef nomorewars. By the way, seeing Wer're all invited, I prefer Steak. Regards, :rose::-O:laugh:

                I recall a classic old song in Tamil which also emphasizes this. I would just quote the English translation of the relevant lyrics here: "Where is the peace on Earth? I would like to rent out a place there"

                  I don't feel the Christmas yet. Come on, it's mid-November! I hate it when hypermarkets are starting to decorate their halls with trees, present boxes and Santa. Worst of all is when they start playing carols several weeks before Christmas Eve. :/ Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love to do shopping in Christmas atmosphere, just not in November!! This kills the Christmas spirit for me, after a few weeks of hearing carols from the speakers and seeing the trees, when Christmas finally comes you are so fed up with all this... I think they should put a Santa a few days before 12/6 (that's when Santa comes in Poland), then get rid of him and get back with Christmas decorations maybe around 12/15. I have absolutely no idea of what to buy, definitely I won't be buying a present for myself :P, rather for my girlfriend, parents and sister.

                  Kind regards, Pawel Krakowiak

                    Now that makes the whole Christmas bull worthwhile. I haven't done a good ham in about three years, maybe more.

                      I have no reason or means to buy anything I've wanted all year, and if I did I certainly wouldn't wait until now. Our bonus is monthly, based on output, not one single lump.

                            On this note, if someone calls you a scrooge, remind them that it was he who bought the biggest turkey in the shop, presents for the Cratchetts and gave Bob his rise, gave money to charity and wished them all a Merry Christmas.

                              On Black Friday there are some good deals such as South Park season 10 for $15. I asked for Planet Earth series in BluRay for the holidays but if we find it cheap on BF I'll just get it then.
