I have the Rebel T2i myself. My only complaint: no internal interval timer (for time lapse photography). I did find an external for $17 on Amazon, though.

Hey Tard. Can you get your hands on another one? I'd like to stick one in my phone booth stand thingy.

Gotta get yourself one of these. Cast iron, no teflon non-stick bullshit here. And check out the cord behind it. It's more like a rope. Some serious wattage here. The on/off switch has one of those soft nylon protectors too.

I actually have one of these (Cuisinart Griddler):



I don't do the Panini thing that often, and the stainless steel/cast aluminum base construction on the thing is pretty solid. I haven't killed it in about 4 years, and it gets a lot of use (mostly doing bacon) as it's really versatile.

If it dies, you damn well know I'm getting that thing.

I also really do want a commercial toaster too (maybe a conveyor one). I don't know if you've noticed, but they just flat make better tasting toast than the consumer shit. I don't know...may be the higher heat, but the toast comes out tasting better...

Dude, Slice is way too fashion conscious for that wallpaper. You should have known better...
