Hey, what the hell, you knew it would go that way anyway. She's been with
you a long time.  /jmac

Subject: [OM] My digital confession.


I casually announced my new purchase to Susan just after noon today,
choosing a time when she was a little distracted playing some game on her
three-year-old Dell computer.  The conversation went like this:

Me: "Oh, almost forgot.  I bought some new camera gear."
Her:  "Like you don't have enough!  What's this one?"
Me:  "It's an Olympus E-1 digital."
Her:  "How much did it cost?"
Me:  "A lot."
Her:  "Well, it's your money.  And, speaking of spending money, I want a new
computer and printer, and since I haven't spent any of my bonus from last
year ... "
Me:  (Interrupting)  "Sounds good.  I'll help you hook it all up."

At this juncture, I wandered off toward the kitchen, declaring that it must
be beer-thirty, smoothly changing the subject and closing the discussion by
starting a conversation with Bailey, one of the cats.  Am I slick, or what?

Walt, who's learned a thing or two from years watching folks get in trouble
by saying more than they had to.
