Watch Crazy

Those magazines ads finally got to me.  You know those ads at the beginning of fancy magazines that advertise luxury watches?  I think that they finally moved me to action:  There was a banner ad on the NYTimes for a place called “Watch Avenue,” and I clicked and searched and fell in love with a watch.  Photo:

Yeah, but it is like $250K.

So, I started looking for other watches, and I found some that I liked that are more reasonably priced—just a couple of thousand dollars.  But, then I got to wondering about other things I could buy and use for the same amount of money:

A new electric guitar to make music?
A video camera to make movies?
Adobe Flash to make animations?

I need to figure out how to stimulate the economy.  Any thoughts are welcome.

    I promise to give you stimulating conversation for that $ and then spend it on things I would like – a new digital camera, armani suit, vacation to Hawaii, a better mattress, a couch…

    And a Le Corbusier Chaise Lounge Chair … so far I’ve found one for $560 (w/ shipping)… sooo comfy!
