Like I said, I collect collections:

- I have over 2,000 autographed items (also a hobby, as I get them myself rather than buying them outright).
- Dozens of old magazines and newspapers, mostly sports.
- An old atari with about 50 games, and an old C-64
- 300 or so CDs.
- About 40 hats (and I rarely wear hats anymore)
- 30+ bobbleheads
- old schedules
- tickets

I would say I collect wine, but the one bottle in my collection, Menage a Trois, will be uncorked when the right opportunity presents itself.

Chuggie and Sarge are on their way to your place right now.  Get your corkscrew ready.

I would prefer to shoot them than use a corkscrew to gouge out their eyes.

I have two children (well, almost) to prove it.   8)

That proves nothing! I want a DNA test.

No. I have a ton of music, books, and movies, but I believe that counts as a media library, not a collection. Nothing's still in its wrapper being preserved for posterity or resale.

Shot glasses.  Anytime Mrs. Feva and I go somewhere new... we make sure to hit somewhere where we can get a glass as a reminder of being there.

Probably have 25-30 right now.

FastFreddiette used to collect those also.  She stopped a couple of years ago, but we still have no less than 40-50.

i collect memories to heartbreaking Philadelphia sporting events

Well, those are hardly rare, or valuable.

I collect beers from whereever we travel.  Every Carribean island has its own beer and rum so i have a pretty good collection.  I used to collect CD's but my wife made me stop 3 years into dating realizing i was spending 40bucks on average a week buying CDs and maybe another 40 on DVDs
