$20,000 for the camera? Did they buy it from a councilman's brother in law?

Ahhhh.. Thanks for the clarification.

I thought a fly tipper was good loookin' restaraunt patron who left a good bit of money for services rendered.

“When I was younger
“I used to tip flies for fun, yeah
“Actually I didn’t do that
