Re: [Digital BW] C84 for $8? C84 sighting

2004-06-09 by Randy Rancier

Man, I was thinking all of this news about C84 was really wild until 
last night.  After a long day at work yesterday I stopped by my 
friendly neighborhood pub to have a beer, mind you I just had one 
beer, and headed home before it got too late, must have been around 1 
am.  On the way home I decided to take a long short-cut home to 
relax; mind you this is out in the middle of nowhere.  When all of a 
sudden I saw these bright lights come out from no where.  The light 
got so big and bright I had to pull over until it passed.  As it pass 
I noticed that it was a big giant Epson C84 printer, man was it BIG.  
On the back I noticed a sign that said, "Epson rules, an Epson 
printer in every household".  When I got home the FBI was waiting for 
me; they told me they had been conducting some holographic 
experiements in the area and that anything I might have seen was 
strickly an illusion and that I should go to bed a forget the whole 
matter.  When I went in and logged on to the internet, I started 
getting all of these pop-up messages on unreal deals for Epson C84 
printers, even though I have software that is supposed to prevent 
such things.

Well it has been a long day, think I better go get some sleep.

Sorry if I strayed from the topic of this forum, please forgive the
