Usually, I’m too busy complaining about one thing or another to find something positive to say. But this post is a positive post. This post is all about brand loyalty. Brand loyalty is defined as a consumer’s commitment to repurchase a specific brand of products or services, demonstrated by repeated purchasing or word-of-mouth advocacy. Based on this definition, I am a brand-loyal Canon customer. My brand loyalty is a special and difficult to earn type of love. What follows is my comprehensive Canon camera review.

My first digital camera was a Canon PowerShot S50, which I bought around Thanksgiving in 2003. At the time, digital photography had still not usurped film photography, but was gaining in popularity quickly. I remember I bought my S50 from Sears, because I had worked there recently prior and was able to get a discounted deal. For two solid long years, that camera was with me for thousands of photos, and never missed a beat.

But my S50 died an untimely death, its blood on my own hands, after a misguided attempt at a second or third keg-stand at a friend’s 21st birthday party.

In my imagination, I’ve been asked repeatedly: why so few updates to the site lately? As a humorist, these days, my job is made obsolete, thanks to the hilarity that is Sarah Palin. Without even trying to, in the short span of weeks, she has established herself as a subtle comedic genius whose unparalleled ineptitude has appealed to the intellectually devoid American public.

Latte-sipping elitists like myself are frightened to think what happens if McCain wins the election, since he’s so old that he could literally go any minute now, we could wind up with ‘President Palin’. The sheer thought drives me to drink. And drink we will.

If you know me, you know that I love Chili’s buffalo chicken salads. I was in the middle of installing two brand new terabyte hard drives in my PC when my hunger instructed me to purchase one tonight. I really wanted to finish up everything with the new hard drives, so I figured I could call Chili’s to-go to pick up my order.

I didn’t know the number, so I searched Google for “chilis”, but was shocked when I saw that Google was flagging Chili’s official website, chilis.com, with the warning “this site may harm your computer”.

I was intrigued by the idea that Chili’s now had IT staff dedicated to writing malware, but considering the effectiveness of Chili’s product placement in Austin Powers (2): The Spy Who Shagged Me, I had to find out more.
