Good Saturday morning !!! (come out you lurkers)

Hey Traci >:d< wow .. that stinks about the players .... I always decide what it is I want .. and then look on eBay, but I have more luck on Amazon.com with electronics. The Sandisk Sansa that I am getting is from Amazon .. and it's the best price I could find. I try only to buy things that are directly from Amazon .. not third parties selling through Amazon, but so far haven't had any problems. I got an amazing price on my dig camera on Amazon last year. I think it was almost $150 less than anywhere else. I bought a ring off eBay a few years ago, and I was very disappointed in the quality of it for what I paid ... and I was stuck with it, so I am REALLY careful now. No big ticket items . But on the other hand, I've gotten batteries for my dig camera and phone for REALLY good prices on eBay. Hugs, Mo

This reply is coming to you on Sunday, but I had to tell you guys about my Saturday. Part of my daughters Christmas presents were two tickets to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I took her. We headed to the Verizon Center in DC at around 12:30 PM for a 3PM showing. Had to park a few blocks away ($20 prepaid - unreal!!!). Walked - that was no problem. Had to find our seats on the 4th floor - no problem. Sat in the tiniest seats - no problem. Surrounded on both sides by people - no problem. I had plenty of shoulder, leg, butt, and thigh room. What a grand feeling! Just made for a better concert experience all around. Last time I went to a concert, I left with bruises on my thighs from the seat being too tight. The concert itself was amazing!! Totally a Rock'n Christmas!! I had no idea anyone could rock up Christmas songs that much. Right up my alley. Ex 80's rock musicians, complete with the 80's hair, electric guitars, keyboards, DRUMS, lasers and lights show, flames (shooting to the music that is) and hair being thrown and swished all over the place. Such a beautiful memory maker. We've wanted to see them for quite a few years and our wish came true this year. Next year, Sam and Monty have to come with us. I hate that they could not witness this event. Monty can't complain though, because him and Andrew (eldest) go to see Stomp at Warner theatre on 1/6. I know that will be amazing also. Ok, enough rambling. Just wanted to update you. Have a great Sunday! TraciL

Hey Traci, Sounds like an awesome day! I'm going to cut and paste it into a new thread so it gets seen!! Hugs, Mo
