What do you collect?

I mentioned this in the hot deals forum and was wondering if any of you guys and gals collected anything... unusual, ordinary, whatever.

I collect shot glasses. I started when I was in high school (can't remember exactly when). The last time I counted, I had around 80 glasses. Now I estimate that I have about 125. They range from state glasses to event glasses to regular glasses. Probably the most usual ones are the glasses my brother got sent me from Korea (he's stationed there).

My grandfather has built me two cabinets to hold them all. Right now my wife and I are in an one bedroom apartment, so we don't have the wallspace to hang two (approximately) 4 ft. tall X 2 ft. wide cabinets. Plus, they weigh a lot when they're full, so I'm planning on putting a bolt into a stud just to make sure the sucker stays put. It would really p*** me off if I hung one on a nail and the thing fell and broke half my glasses. The apartment complex probably wouldn't like a for me to put a bolt in a stud in my aparment! :D

Maybe one day I'll get a pic to show ya'll.

I use to collect the usual things, baseball cards, coins, stamps...can't afford that stuff anymore...freakin computer sucks it all down...hehe...maybe thats what I collect... <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

I collect knives and swords. Sure, it gets a little scary when my wife gets angry but, she's only been able to figure out how to get the smaller ones off the walls. How deep could they go?
:D

'puters and cars, I don't mean to, they're just drawn to me

Used to collect stamps and coins about 5 years ago. Colleced Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars for a while too. I like the knife and sword collector thing... or like that guy in Deuce Bigalo, Male Gigalo that collected weapons.

I collect Empire movie magazine. I started 6 months after it was published and have NEVER missed an issue, I have even got all the cover gifts that came with each issue as well.
The only copy I do not have is issue number 2.

Im trying to get all my old fisher price toys that I had when I was little back.

Even at 43 I still have baseball cards around. I just buy the wax packs and put them in a box (I do not open them). I also collect minerals and rocks. My wife is an avid collector of antique compacts (not compaq) :D . These are the make up compacts that are sterling silver, pewter, gold, etc. She has them going back to the Civil War era. My son and nephew are collecting glueteus maximus calluses from sitting around all summer watching the Sci-Fi channel and web surfing! :D
