			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Checking my Amazon Associate reports, I notice that four people ordered Cuisinarts through the links on my sites this Quarter.</p>
<p>I repeat, four U2log/Whedonesque readers ordered 30 dollar Cuisinarts.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Update: I had a closer look and it appears they are all parts for a Cuisinart, so it is probably just one user expanding. Ah well, it was funny while it lasted.</p>
<p><span id="more-1973"></span><br />

Is it a U2 special edition Cuisanart? Can you mash songs in it?</p>
<p>ok, I know that is corny….</p>
<p>More coffee now for me.</p>

<p>I… don’t even know what a Cuisinart is. I’m assuming it’s some form of kitchen utensil?</p>
<p>Which, y’know, is a thought that I have when checking on my fansites. Fansite, check. But… how do I cook dinner?<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Crumpler shop? Here in Amsterdam? That&#8217;s like a CRACK DEN, don&#8217;t they understand? I swear I went out to buy a LowePro bag, but came back with another Crumpler. What? LowePro = expensive, ugly. Crumpler = less expensive, pretty. It&#8217;s a no brainer. </p>
<p>I walked in carrying my &#8220;<a href="http://www.bagsforme.com/bags/CR-WW">Wonder Weenie</a>&#8221; and the Aussie &#8220;no worries&#8221; shop assistant said &#8216;Great bag!&#8217; Then he took a closer look and told me I had my strap done the wrong way. &#8216;Fix it, fix it!&#8217; I told him, which he did. I loved it. Usually in shops these days staff know absolutely bugger all about anything, least of all the products they&#8217;re selling.</p>
<p>Did I really &#8216;need&#8217; another camera bag? I did indeed, my old ones no longer fit my equipment.</p>
<p>So I came home with a &#8220;<a href="http://www.taschenversand.de/shop.php/cl=moredetails/cnid=ced41714ab8305b35.57447157/anid=b8f41715699c927b2.76633862/Crumpler-Loyal-Chap/">Loyal Chap</a>&#8221; (<a href="http://www.directshopper.de/crumpler-loyal-chap-black-black-silver_universaltaschen-und-koffer_p-Zoom">black</a>), which allegedly fits 2 bodies and 5 lenses. Haven&#8217;t tried that, but it fits my crazy large lens upright plus the body and three smaller lenses, leaving enough space for paraphernalia. </p>
<p>All the while I was eyeing their discount shelf (30% off last year&#8217;s range), where among others a pretty purple &#8220;Heinous&#8221; and one of their smaller backpacks (&#8220;<a href="http://www.bagsforme.com/bags/CR-TP">Team Player</a>&#8220;) in a fetching oatmeal/brown hue was giving me the eye, but I resisted temptation.</p>
