| Strange Hobbies or Collectables? Posted: 9/1/2008 5:38:08 PM | Hmmm... yes I am eccentric, I collect:
Books; particularly 1st editions; my collection at this time is 6000 + books, I never seem to stop hunting for a nice beautiful story.
I also collect art prints, paintings, movies, bone china, and music. One never stops collecting once they have started; it seems to spread out into several others areas all with an original connection to the start of your first passionate collection. | |

Posted: 9/1/2008 9:08:47 PM | | LMAO MKD, don't worry about it, I save every box my shoes have come in, but I do save them, as well as other decent boxes, for Christmas gifts. I had a girlfriend laugh at me for collecting boxes, until she came knocking on my door one Christmas to ask for some boxes. | |

my previse hobbie of collecting ex-wifes was getting to be cost prohibitive.
You were probably creating too much work for yourself... next time just collect their heads  | |

They're illegal here, best bet is to stop in at an army surplus store in Grand Forks or Fargo, they have a martial arts section & sell nunchuks, shurikens, blowguns and ninja climbing claws ( all illegal in Canada btw).
I don't have any nunchuks, shurikens, or blowguns  | |

Darn. Now you tell me. I kid. Still...
Anyways, I collect swords. Usually anything unique or from a video game. I also collect knives. Ok I know what your gonna say. Im dangerous. But I do have a small passion for collecting stuffed cows. Not bears because they are tooooooooo common, but cows. So far, I got like 50 and they each have a name. :D | |

Nuthin wrong with that, but do they each talk to you ? If they do maybe you shouldn't collect sharp or pointy objects
