I hope you get well soon Matt!
Going to make a paypal account specially for you
I've readed the other comments and not everyone can make a paypal account because they have excluded some countries so there might be an unlucky few that might not be able to make one

Under a partnership between Pentax and Samsung Techwin, the K20D is also available as the Samsung GX-20. The two cameras are virtually identical with a few small differences. The text labels for buttons are different, using a slightly smaller font, and the buttons themselves are slightly different in shape and placement. In addition, the hand grip is a slightly different shape, meaning the battery grip for the K20D is incompatible - however, a GX-20 battery grip is available.
The firmware of the Samsung GX-20 is also different, using different menus and symbols, and lacks support for Pentax's PEF raw image format. The JPEG image processing of the GX-20 is reportedly different from that of the K20D.

Yes Terry I believe so too, although i'm not Clarky
The size of the sensor can not change the characteristics of a lens.
Because that the sensor is smaller it captured less from the projected image. If you crop on your pc things doesn't change of your lens either, the object always stays 10 pixels long for example?
a 100mm will also be a 100mm no matter on what the size of the sensor is.
it's really simple to explain the 1:1 thing
We take a bug 1mm long with a 1:1 lens will be projected as 1mm long bug on the sensor or film, a 1:2 lens will project that bug as a 0,5mm long bug on the sensor or film. You can change the size of the sensor as much as you want but it won't change the lens so the bugs stays the same as describe here above.
Do you concur?

Amin that are some great ideas to hide your lenses from your wife but what to do if you come home with one of these :
Tell her it's a bag or something
wait till she sees your bank account, she won't be happy!

It might be an idea to keep the front page of your site business only
so remove these from that page;
The Riley Family
Cherished Poems
Michael Riley Website
The Scollon Family
The Balfour Family
The FitzGerald Family
You would still have the link "family" you might wanna change that to something like "more about me" to be sure there isn't any confusion and it will keep the frontpage clean and professional.
It's quite simple to adjust that and everyone interested in you personally wouldn't mind to click an extra time.
Just an idea that is hopefully worth to concider as a short term solution.

I got to look for that silver lens if I manage to make her look even an ounce slimmer that will be a huge bonus hahaha. So I hear there is one silver lens being passed around this forum, who has it at the moment? Please pass it around we all want to benefit from it LOL.

One of the privileges you've because you've chosen Pentax are the Limited lens, really sublime lenses were photographers from other brands drool over .
The FA trio are the better limiteds but the DA versions are a lot cheaper and also very nice, you might want to put some of these on your LBA list.

You need to stretch your arms out to look at the screen to make a shot, if you hold your camera that way it's very hard to not move it and it gets heavy fast.
Sony is the only one that has it good right now, they use a second sensor specially for the liveview that makes fast to use and with some models you can flip the screen so you can hold the cam near your belly and look down to take the shot.
There are some other things to get the K20D over the K10D though.
the CMOS sensor is very good at high ISO and works much better at long exposures just to name one.
You can also save some money and hope that the "K30D" comes this year.
