Of course, I do want it...
Can't afford it.....
Actually, I can, but I shouldn't....
Or should I....?
$1250 can buy a nice basic custom sword from some makers....
And I am looking to get a new car this year....
Still.... this opportunity doesn't come up very often....
Someone buy this book before I go insane!!!!!

My wife is too accomodating, but I think this purchase would push her over the line!
Too bad.
