Computer bargains are all over the place! This week I must have seen
two dozen offers that I would have purchased if I only had the funds.
When I think back to all of the computer sales I have seen come and go
over the years that I have been helping our listeners answer
their computer
questions, this will probably be one of the best ever.
I can’t help but wonder how much richer I would be if I had actually
been paid for all of the time I have put into the Castellini
on
Computers show and newsletter over the past six years.
I was telling my wife and four small children about some of the great
computer deals this week as they ate their mush and hash goulash.
My son Tim said to my wife, "I don’t need an iPod Touch mum, I am just
happy to have my health." My daughter, Pollyanna, added, "I only wish I
had Guitar Hero III so that the kids at school would want to be friends
with me."
I explained that you can’t buy friends with material things and money.
"Yes," yelled my wife, from the room without a computer. "We mus’n't
fuss
about things we don’t have. But it sure is hard being a good wife and
mum
without a Palm Centro."
I think tomorrow I will sneak away for a while and see if I can trade
my pocket watch for that new electric comb I saw in the Sharper Image
catalogue.
Whenever I get down about the things I am lacking, I just remind myself
and family that the Holidays are more about giving than receiving. For
example, $200 would give a PSP, $300 an iPod Touch, $400 an iPod
Centro, $3000 a Canon Realis X700 HD projector.

Should that have been “whittled”, maybe??
As of this moment, I have received exactly $0. It looks like my children will be getting toys that I widdled from the sticks that fall from the willow in my back yard again this year.
As I was going thru the comments for today, this one (where you continually insert ‘donate’) the lepor ‘suspicious website’ popped up….Including the full paragraph of ‘this might be a pshing website, and the reporting particulars.
Are you aware of this? That’s pretty funny guys!
It took me a minute to “get” what you were doing Adam! I thought maybe you had accidentally mis formatted your post and the donate button was reprinting between each paragraph.
Now I understand your subtle encouraging words
