Camera envy... or camera lust?

A new camera was announced today that has rocked my boat nigh unto capsization!  Upon reading the details of it's immensity thoughts of all the sweet things I could potentially do with it began racing through my head with feverish pitch.  My current lack of significant camera has opened a chasmic hole in my affections and, as my imagination has clung to the possibility of owning such a fine mechanical creation, I find myself extending beyond the meager commitments of general envy.  I am nearly ready to make a true mortal commitment to obtain it.

To explain this obsessive compulsion would be difficult without relaying the actual aforementioned commitment.  I am literally, and seriously, considering 40 weeks of plasma donation... making "donation" feel somewhat inaccurate to describe it.  I want the money from it.  Though, more correctly, I want the 1/40th of a camera from it.  Is my plasma actually worth it?  HECK YES!  Do I have the savage level of fortitude to actually commit?  Maybe?

Anyway... it is certainly a "man challenge" if I have ever heard of one.  Just the kind of insanity that actually tickles my fancy.  I obviously can not call it a logical move in most respects.  I guess the cards of time will have to reveal this particular piece of history as it unravels.
