I was going to ask if you'd been taking spelling lessons from Brooks, but I guess you've been taking typing lessons from me.

Some great typos here.  that would be the FA 50 1.4 and the FA135 2.8.  I guess 
it can't be a misspelling if it's numbers, can it?

I have this problem now.  I have:

DA14
DA40
FA10 1.4
A50 2.8 macro
FA 100 2.8 macro
FA125 2.8
K 300 4

I desperately need some prime lenses between 14 an 40.  The 40 is bit too long 
in many cases and need a shorter normal.  I often use the FA20-35 but I would 
like to get the DA21 and something in the low to mid 30's.  one good results 
was that the FA 135 suddenly became a most useful lens with the DX format.

well, there are exceptions to every rule I guess,
but in general the further you get away from
50mm ( 33mm on digital ), the less often you are
going to need it. That's why they call normal normal.

On Pentax digital, you are most likely going to get a lot more use out

of a 135,200, or 300, than the 400. 400mm is just very very long on
digital and will rarely be needed.

Unless you do birds, in which case 400mm is awfully short.
