R.I.P. (YET ANOTHER) CAMERA

Either I'm jinxed or I'm just not cut out to be an owner of electronics.

I was hoping that my digital camera might be salvageable but after calling around I've found out that: 1. camera repair people are pretty outspoken about their feelings towards Samsung cameras, and 2. it'd cost near the same, or maybe even less, to just buy a new camera as it would to try and fix it. And so, after a short life, it looks as though I'll be parting with the 2nd camera that's been in my possession in the past year.

And while we're looking at the numbers, it's also worth noting that I'm currently on my 3rd computer in 2 1/2 years, and now that my phone is going a little nuts [which when I took it in to get checked out I was told by the salesperson, "now I remember why we stopped selling these phones" -- great.] I could very well be on to my 3rd phone in 1 1/2 years here soon enough. But, 3rd time's a charm, right? Right? I'm hoping so. If not, I may just have to move to Amish country and swear off all technology -- it sure would save me a lot of money.
