"It's digital, it should be free"

Tim got the job for doing pictures for his squardron Xmas party. He is taking prom pictures basically. You know when you went to prom and there was that theme with the big pillars that had either flowers or balloons on them under an arch way of some sort or something similiar. We aren't getting paid for it but they are going to pay for their pictures. What I think irritated Tim the most about all it was when he told them his price. They are going to get their pictures on a disc which they own the rights to, in other words a copyright CD all for $15. Cheap right? They were still complaining about that saying "It's digital, it should be free!" Tim said, yeah the same thing happened with my camera, when I went to buy it on Ebay and it normally goes for about $2000 but since it was a digital camera it was free, how great was that! Some people want everything for nothing. One of those things I hate about the military, always looking for the cheapest route. They want a prime rib dinner for the price of a hot dog/hamburger BBQ. Oh well, we'll see how this goes.

Tim went out and bought a new coffee pot and espresso maker in one. He is has been looking for one for a while now, I think this was more of an impluse buy. I think he likes it but it is going to piss him off later. We'll have to wait and see though. I'm not sure that I like the way the coffee tastes now, I think because it is a new pot with new pipes might be the reason. We did the dumbie run with just plain water. We have to use bottle or filtered water now so that our coffee pot doesn't scale up. England has a huge problem with lime scale and hard water. That might be the other reason the coffee taste funny, I'm using better water.

So I'm just flying through some books. I think I'm on my third one this week already. I read mostly when I'm at school working or well "babysitting". It is easier to read when I have older kids but the last couple of days have been kinda busy and I've had bad kids as well.
