What do you collect?

i collect video games, dvds, feathers, and pictures

I collect fabric...especially Guatemalan I-Kat, books, old Popular Machanics, old print blocks, sewing machines, antique furniture, and jigsaw puzzles.

The skulls of my enemies!

I'm a big collector of Star Wars stuff, especially the action figures. Other than that, I collect random things like Disney items, comic books, and classic rock LPs.

I'm a big collection of Star Wars stuff too, except I couldn't care less for the toys (well, I could, but...).
I collect rare Star Wars videos that nobody except the serious collector has even heard of. I'm planning to get the "Droids" and "Ewoks" videos pretty soon...
I also collect SW books, although not as much.

I will continue collecting LoTR related books until I've found every last one... well, not really. I focus more on the older books that are out of print now.

In general, I focus on collecting old, out of print books. I go to "used book stores" and Goodwill stores regularly.
My current obsession is with collecting "travel diaries" of people who go to remote places like South America, Africa or Antarctica.
I also buy any "animal" book that I can find if I think that it's not too childish. I generally prefer the ones that are completely realistic like Raptor Red and Biography of a Grizzly, although occasionaly a book such as Jonathan Livingston Seagull comes up that's right up there in my favorites list with Raptor Red and LoTR.
I also collect fossils, and books about paleontology.
I also, as something to do when I don't feel like reading or churning the computer on, collect Gameboy Games, some of my favorites being Bust-A-Move 4 and Nascar Racing '99. Probably Zelda too, but I haven't played it enough to find out.

If anyone's wondering, no I don't have N64 or anything else like that.

Oh, and I collect shells when I can find them.

I also collect "Wildlife Factfile" cards, which is, I guess, where I get my fascination about nature from (mostly on the animal side, but I'm now starting to take a closer look into plants).

Who actually read this?

LOL.....I almost fell for your sig again!

Pens

I collect computers. Mostly older PCs.

I guess that the only thing I really "collect" is football championships, etc... of which I have a fair deal.

I collect Star Wars Lego of starfighters and Depeche Mode CDs.

I collect ill-gotten gains from the dwarves...

Gil, why the heck do you have three identities? You are not fooling anyone, and they always reply to each other, whats up with that?

It's just Gil's little joke. He felt the need to create a new identity so he wouldn't make Elf Lord before me. (See the Gil's 500th post thread.) As to why he created two pseuds, who knows?

To answer the topic: I collect dust.

Bah!

Thanks Eruve!

No, if I were trying to fool everyone, I'd have to get a different computer, a different ISP, and I wouldn't link to my own pages in my signatures an I wouldn't leave my mail address displayed in my profiles!

Now Sauganast you will pay!

The skull of the Red Wizard will look fine on my shrine to Morgoth!

I get to pick his pockets!

I collect Star Wars stuff. Anything I can get my hands on really. My favorite thing I've gotten ahold of is one of those Pepsi coolers that are shaped like R2-D2. I also collect Star Trek and X-Files stuff but to a lesser extent. I go to conventions frequently and collect autographs that I have gotten there. My favorites are the two by David Prowse and Kenny Baker that are personalized. Conventions have a rep for being weird, and they certainly are but theyre a real blast.

I collect books. Mainly s/f and fantasy books but I have a fair amount of nonfic too. The used bookstore owner here knows me by name.

Collecting is a lot of fun. I guess you could say I'm a packrat but there's a method to my madness.

wow!!!! hehe i also collect...online names like mine right here

Doc Martins.....currently 6 pairs.

I had one pair... if you want them... they're.... hum... old!

I collect pictures of my best moments and my best friends (currently over 2000, but about 250 displayed on the walls of my bedroom.)

I used to collect rocks, but I don't anymore. I now collect pencils (I either accumulate them or lose them, depending on my mood) and interesting little somethings. Each something, maybe mathom would be a good word, is attatched to some memory or person. I've got a good sized collection by now on my dresser and bookshelves.
I guess you could say I collect books, but it's more a case of being a bookworm and unconsiously accumulating them. I also seem to unknowingly collect a great deal of cat fur.
