What Canon EOS is the best value for money in the second hand market?

Minotaur @Minotaur (105) 29 Jan 08

Finally decided to go for an SLR Digital. The Canon EOS range seems to make the most sense, but what one should I buy? I am after the cheapest, but most results, so any advice would be helpful.

Minotaur That seems to be the reason to go for Canon second hand,there are so many lens out there. I will have a look at both of those.

Minotaur Under a Velvet Clock. And it is about Nox, the incarnation of Night/Secrets. Not the best book, but interesting, a lot of back story. Think I am going to re-read them all. Such a good series.

When writing do you prefer

Sillychick @Sillychick (3275) • United States 29 Jan 08

typing on your computer or writing on paper first? I used to always type it. It seems to save work because you can rearrange easily. But lately writing on paper seems to help the writing process for me. I sometimes stare...

Minotaur I actual write on computer but do all the pre-writting on paper. Like you said, you can rearrange your ideas and it seems to work better.

Minotaur Got Ubuto and Kubuto. City of Heroes cannot be played on Linux, so as this is a game I pay to play, I have no choice on Operating system.

New series, Grissom being phased out?

Minotaur @Minotaur (105) 29 Jan 08

Is it me, or in the new series are they slowly getting rid of Grissom? Or changing the charcter so he is less and less likeble. The Without a trace episode seems to stand out as the worse example of this. He had a sense...

Minotaur Not sure, they seem to be fading him into the background, and changing the charcter to be less likable. He did sign on for six series, but they got him to do eight.

Minotaur Michael Rosenbaum does an amazing job in the early seasons. I think you can almost see he thinking in later episodes, what do i do with this. Think they made lex bad to soon.

sonyareads @sonyareads (73) 24 Jan 08

We were discussing House at work a few days ago, someone expressed some concern over the writers' strike and the thought that there may not be a new season. This is my all time favorite television show, and while I don't mind...

Minotaur We have three more episodes(Inc Tonights) then the trouble starts. The one good thing could be all these shows with really good epiodes because the writers have had so long to work on them.

3rd season of Prison Break might be the last!!

Dood_Jor @Dood_Jor (54) • Jordan 25 Jan 08

I've read somewhere that the 3rd season of prison break is the last one, did you hear about that? I guess they ran out of places to break out from!!

Minotaur They are taking about doing a spin off in a female prison, so even if cancelled we still might see parts of the story live on. I think this maybe the biggest casualty of the writers strike, because if it gets put on hiatus I do not see it surviving for...

Good or Best?

MachSchell @MachSchell (35) • United States 25 Jan 08

Is this season a really good season? Or is it the best season so far? I dug the change of pace, the intern character arc, and some of the cinematography that's been switched up. But does it make it the best?

Minotaur Not so sure this is the best season. There have been moments of brillance, but think House is just running the same old stuff. While everyone around him is changing, he has stayied the same this season. Not so sure that works, part of the brillance is...

Minotaur Lady's Heather's Box. Just brillant. It was so interesting to see the Mistress as the normal person surrounded by everyone elses problems. The biggest mistake ever made was how they went on with this charcter.
