...to buy a new gun or camera gear, when will it ever end?
In my defense, my wife knew I was going into a gun store today and didn't take my credit card from me.

Life is short and we are not promised tomorrow. We can't take material things with us when we pass so why not enjoy those things while we are here.

My neighbor's 80 year old father got out of his vehicle in his driveway, took 10 steps, bent over to pick up the newspaper, hit the ground and was gone from a stroke. This happened Thursday.

Enjoy life while you can!!!

You should buy a new pistol at least once a year. They are a good investment as long as you but good ones.

Haha. Of course. Yet I find my .32 caliber semi-automatic pocket pistol enough for now. I want .38 caliber six-shooter, though, for when I feel like a backcountry person. Which reminds me that I need to get my .22 rifle cleaned.

How does having no camera relate to feeling relaxed, happy and peaceful? I am all three of those with three cameras.

Wow I never had a problem with either of my wives watching my credit cards or what I purchased, usually if I was going to the gun shop my first wife was with me. My second wasn't concerned All the bills where paid and I didn't ask her what she spent her money on.
Damn I was lucky.

Buying guns and cameras are a lot alike. I have more cameras and more guns than I can possibly use and still see magazines with new things offered and knowing I don't need them, GAS builds!
