The price is so low you just can't pass it up. What could go wrong?

software, or malware.

12 Quotes: Taking a Vacation
Using a camera appeases the anxiety which the work-driven
feel about not working when they are on VACATION and
supposed to be having fun.
They have something to do that is like a friendly
imitation of work: they can take pictures.
Susan Sontag, 1933 American Essayist
I had a rough marriage
-- finally we decided we should either take a vacation or
get a divorce.
We discussed it very maturely and we decided on the divorce
because we felt we had a limited amount of money to spend.
A vacation in Bermuda is over in two weeks but a divorce
is something that you always have.
- Woody Allen
Laughter is an instant vacation.
Milton Berle
No vacation goes unpunished.
Karl A. Hakkarainen
