Compulsive Spender

Well I have come to the realization that I am a compulsive spender. I have to have what I want when I want it and that's that. To the detriment of my wallet. I blame....the media, my friends, my parents and the devil because he made me do it. But, no seriously, I know I have a problem and have read how to stop it, but as a typical man and an expert procrastinator, just ask my wife she'll agree, I can not apply what I read but will someday.
    So, my latest acquisition is the Nikon D50. Why the D50? Well my reason is quite convoluted. See I am going to Alaska next month to go fishing and this will be my first trip so I don't want to miss anything photo worthy. I have a camera already, but it's a basic digital Kodac camera, this D50 is a bad mamma, you can change out the lenses and is a SLR! I'm not a professional photographer but with this bad boy I could be..someday. So, I had to get this camera see?

Well, the name Samuria came about one late night when I was opening my first Live account, I had been up all day working and was really tired and probably one too many beers. I mispelled samurai, I didn't realize this until I was online playing Halo when all the little 'Cherubs' started making fun of me for not knowing how to spell, and I was like,"what the hell are you little shits talking about"! Then I noticed my gamer tag. I could have changed it, but it's more of a reminder to me so I keep it. So now when I get razzed about it, I just grin while looking through the sniper scope or sneak up for a back stab.

I so understand this... if it's electronic, shiney and a lot of options I'll never understand or even use, I must have it. I usually end up giving it away after the 'new' is gone from it, though :D Just one question, what's a samuria?
