bxgrl,
in all honesty, I have few illusions about our privacy rights, at least in this computer age.
on any given day, my e-z pass tells people where I crossed a bridge and when, and they even take a picture of my car for good measure,
on any given day, my cell phone company knows where I am and where I have been by the reflections off cell phone towers,
on any given day, my musings on chat rooms are monitored by the web host, by the NSA for keywords and any host of people with the right credentials
on any given day my photo is taken in the bank at the ATM
on any given day, my movements are monitored as I stroll along a busy avenue in Brooklyn, like Knickerbocker for instance which has police cams
on any given day, my image appears on the black and white screen in the manager’s office in my local supermarket through that opaque dome which nobody notices anymore on the ceiling
on any given day somebody could easily have one of those tiny cameras hooked up at work to monitor my comings and goings, it’s legal after all
on any given day my computer posts can be accessed by the computer support division at my job
in short, privacy is an illusion in this day and age,
everyone has a phone with a lens and everyone has a means of transmitting that image or information at light speed.
I will definitely wait on the knives. Being unemployed I simply can’t justify 100 bones on a single knife. Beer is another story 🙂 I’m off to start chopping potatos! Nite everyone!
snappy, usually, whether it’s knives or attorneys, you get what you pay for.
After some experience in life, I’ve come to realize that it’s a true statement. So I always get the best tools that I can, whether it’s in the kitchen, the toolbox, or whatever, my advice would be if you have knives now but temporarily are low on funds, wait until you are better off and buy something good.
