I am going to try like hell to forget about this and enjoy the Dragon, though. I already have a budget for the event and the money is already set aside. Belt gets extra tight afterward. Not before.

I know what you mean but it isn't all that scary.

I'm a little like Alex in that I don't have a whole heck of a lot to do.

This new lease down in Luray is going to keep me a little busy for a while but that's really all the new stuff going on.

ah, I don't have that issue, I'm overwhelmed with work (especially when the two people who were unofficially told they were getting axed are basically not doing work any longer); my problem is that after all the shady business practices going on here, I am not willing to bust my ass doing 60-80 hours of work weekly just so I can cover for the loss of these people (including my own work, which was already at 60+ hours/week)

That's tough...

I'd probably get the Sigma because of the f2.0. That is great for low light. The Canon has image stabilization but I don't think that works as well as a low f-stop. Plus the Sigma is a little cheaper.
