Exilim z70: Missing In Action (MIA)

It's a chilly sunny sunday afternoon in the wonderful city of Aachen. The only thing missing from my super hero utility toolkit is my ultra sexy Casio Exilim Z70 (pictured left), which has been MIA for the last week now.
I hate to admit it, but we may very well have a case of Kleptomaniac Gremlin Infestation (KGI).
I'm not talking 'level-1-britney-oops-i-nicked-it-again' here !
Or it could be a simple case of mistaken identity i.e., the madwoman that is my cousin. Need to investigate this matter further but will keep you folks posted. A little filler post till then ;-)


Late 80s: Viva La Revolucion !!!

I have been a big Casio fan as long as i can remember. Being the proud owner of one of those super cool vintage 'Knight Rider' Casio C-80s had its perks: Having to fight of the school bully was not one of them. Shame i couldn't afford the K.I.T.T car with my school budget: "K.I.T.T ! I need you !!".
God knows what we '80s revolutionaries' would have done at the sight of an IPod back then ? Creamed/wet our pants in electronic delight is my first guess: Ooooooohhhh Iiiiipooood baby.

Early 90s: Wanna see my 'Gadgets' ?

I had my fair share of shiny electronics in my early teens. I'm not proud of this fact but it was a fu***** jungle back then to attract the hot titless 13-15 yr old chics at school. I remember a certain Natasha (No haven't changed her name for this post) who was probably the hottest member of the notorious small-melons club: I'm talking about a younger Yasmeen Ghauri supermodel clone here.
I still assume the fetal position and cry myself to sleep: "Was it me OR the 'bling bling' she really loved ?". We eventually broke up. I wonder if the homicide of her pink TamagoSHIT had anything to do with it ? Wasn't me. I swear snookie !!!


Late 90s: Invasion of the Mini Godzillas

On a VERY dark note: Can you say T-A-M-A-G-O-T-C-H-I ?
I really envy those of you who were fortunate enough to have survived the landing of these evil electronic creatures in the late 90s. The craze to sadistically torture (boy/girl)friends, family and basically anything breathing was the 'in thing'.
Not many teenagers survived the onslaught. Have you ever seen a group of guys cry over 'dead' electronics ? Well it isn't a pretty sight at all and having to stomach close friends transition to 'wussville' was painful. Something as cool as the IPod (Man's Greatest Invention) would have definitely been the salvation back then !!
