Yeah, you would, Peter. I'm so sorry... It comes at one time or another to every loving pet owner...

I wouldn't feel too bad, last Sunday night my dog after being more or less a dog, (in other words normal), began
showing signs of distress, by 1AM his breathing was labored and he barely responded to any stimulus. So like any
pet owner I rushed him right over to the pet emergency room. x rays reveal that his body cavity below the diaphragm is
full of fluid, due to internal bleeding. The vet gives me an estimate on what has to be done to keep him from dying immediately.
This amounts to approximately $1600 to $2000. I wasn't thinking too rationally at this so I gave them my credit card. For the next
2 1/2 hours I vacillated between mourning for my buddy and mentally kicking myself spending upwards of $1600 on a dog who
was going to die in the next couple of hours anyway. He's sleeping at my feet as I type this, I'm not sure how long he's going to
live but I guess I'd do it again. I'm not sure how I'm going to pay my credit card bill next month...

That's completely illogical. Many people, in buying a DSLR, will have exhausted their funds.
I exhausted my funds before I bought any photo gear whatsoever. When they talk about 3 Billion of consumer debt? That's me.
Cheers, Cotty
