What tells me that I finally have enough gear is that when I wander into a
camera shop, I'm looking for things like Pentax rear lens caps, or a good
used grad filter.

For example, I've got a tripod for the car, a tripod for the house, a
mini-tripod for the camera bag, and a monopod for other times.
Occasionally, I'll see a bargain that's hard to resist (grabbed that 40/2.8
pancake lens for $125 Cdn), but I've got all the lenses I _need_.

When I was a mechanic, one day I realized that if someone said to me,
"There's the Snap-On truck, go in and take what you want for free!", I
wouldn't bother.  I seem to have all the tools I need, too.

I'd really like a newer computer, but that would cause the *ist D to become
a must-have, so I'll soldier on with my Pentium "classic" for now.
