Too many things to list but here are some that come to mind:

1 week vacation at Secrets Capri Riviera Cancun in Playa Del Carmen,
Mexico, June 2006, for our honeymoon. Once-in-a-lifetime trip (as in,
now we have a baby). Food was amazing, weather was great.
Relaxation..... drinks were nice (we're not heavy drinkers). Would go
there again. Adults only though.

Canon 20D and subsequently Canon 40D digital SLR camera along with
Canon 100mm macro lense, Canon MP-E 65mm macro lense and Canon MT-24EX
twinlite flash. I used to do macro photography and these pieces of
equipment never let me down.

The 2 computers I built in June 2007 buying everything from
Newegg.com. Received everything in like 2 days. No problems
whatsoever, no RMA's. Sold 1 computer for small profit and still have
the other.

Weber Genesis Grill E300 series I just purchased today along with my
Waring Pro. yes I know i just bought them nad I have no idea if they
will be the best purchases i ever made but i have a feeling they will,
as i plan to get into some serious cooking.
