Comments on: Dear Canon USA http://proactivebusybody.com/2007/05/29/dear-canon-usa/ Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

It comes complete with case. You can have it. One problem. It's a film camera. Dear Abby,

I'll take either a Canon or a Nikon or any camera that is good. I just thought I could get more leverage with Canon since I'm so prolific with one. Before my last two Canon Powershots, I had a Nikon Coolpix. I'm actually not too brand allegiant, although if a company gave me a free one, I'd become VERY allegiant!

While we are patently aware of the surrealism, nay masochism, of such a situation, we feel confident that you will understand our desire to market our camera somewhere north of the hoi-polloi. While we would in no way wish to denigrate *you* in such a manner, we look forward to such an occasion when you are no longer spongeing off your parents/leeching off the welfare/bludging off the dole (delete as appropriate, according to national stereotype) and can afford said equipment of your own. Yours, as ever, in corporate mode, Mr C Anon Dear Abby,
