Spencer is ready to go swimming in late December (he's always running around with his swimming trunks on and we are not going swimming).
Spencer ran into Madisun's face paint and instantly grew a mustache.

This is our choice drink, Red Wine. We prefer Cabernets over Merlots, but if the wine is good, not too sweet, we’ll drink it. Some favorite brand names: BV, Black Opal, Black Swan, Woodcrest, Luna Luna, and Beringer.

Digital Cameras - LOOK OUT!!!!

Digital Cameras Forum

Re: I have just purchased a new Brica digital cam

You are unlikely to find a website for Brica cameras. Here is a clip
from a digital camera site regarding Brica cameras:

"If you look on Ebay and other auction sites, as well as in office
supply and discount stores, you will now find a whole crop of
off-brand cheaper cameras hitting the market. Just go to Ebay for
example and look in the digital camera category - you'll see tons of
these things by unknown names such as SVP, Brica, Megxon, Newgen, and
many others. Many of these cameras advertise super-megapixel
resolutions (usually interpolated), and many have no optical zoom
lenses. Build quality is also sometimes debatable, and you're not
going to get the best image quality either, usually because a number
of them have fixed-focus lenses as well. This is not to say they're
all "crap" (so to speak), as they can be a decent second camera or
fine for those on extremely tight budgets. Just be aware, that
regardless of claims, you are not going to get a camera that competes
with a name brand costing hundreds more. If you want a camera that
produces GOOD images for good enlargements, spend the money on a name
brand."
..........
These off-brand cameras are coming from Taiwan and are being sold by
marketing firms. You can find the same camera with several different
names. Here is a link to one of the marketing outfits (Tekxon
Technology Inc.):

http://www.megxon.com/index.html

They market the Megxon cameras and probably others.
Click on the Products button and you may find a picture of your camera
with the Magxon name printed on it.

There is one marketing outfit in New Zealand that is flooding ebay
with various brands of these camera.
