Look who's talking! ;) On a more serious note, just as some people get sick of the whisky, watch, and whatnot threads, I find these threads on "please help me find an excuse I can present to my wife for buying this expensive piece of equipment" or "how do I best hide my new Noctilux/Summicron/M6 Jaguar from my fiancee" sad and unecessary. Perhaps I'm just misinterpreting them all consistently, but I never see any smileys to indicate that it's all just a joke, and I find it rather alarming that there seems to be a general consensus on this standard modus operandi of misrepresentation, cloakery, and deception. And no, I'm not going to shut up -- until Brian kicks me off.
