Shameless Attempt to Get Free Stuff From Corporate America :-)

This blog is brought to you and my trip is brought to me by the following companies (i.e. these are the brands of stuff I bought for the trip and/or are providing me services).

Nikon: D80
Adorama.com: Where I bought my Nikon D80
SanDisk: memory cards (and a valuable rebate with purchase)
Tamrac: laptop/camera carrying backpack (which i hope counts as a "personal item" for the airlines)
Amazon.com: Power adapters, Kindle, other stuff
Shook, Hardy & Bacon: Vacation time ;-)
American Express: Travelers Cheques, my awesome Gold Card, and much, much more
Artis: planning the whole thing
Metropolitan Community College (Penn Valley): College Credit
Google/Blogger: the blog you are reading
HP: My laptop (but, it's a little old hint, hint)
Sony: PSP
Skype: phone service for my PSP
Targus: Laptop carrier
Quantaray Pro: cam bag for my D80
Delta: Plane tickets
Moo.com: Minicards to promote my blog

I'm sure there are more that I can't think of... As far as people... I'll thank you in person.
