popsjumper 2 #53 September 26, 2006 I'm collecting debt. It seems to self-propagate. I was never much of a collector. In younger days, mobility was a keyword and dragging a collection around with you is a pain-in-the-ass. In later years, when stability was the keyword, she wouldn't stand for it because it wouldn't fit in with the decor. Now, being a DZ bum, and an old-fart, there's just simply no point in it. I did collect three divorces along the way. Does that count? I'm trying to keep up with my sister who has five, so far. I like her philosophy: Wear 'em out, throw 'em out. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlankSteak 0 #60 September 26, 2006 QuoteAs I was running on my treadmill tonight, I was looking around the room. Got to wondering what other things people collect? Strung around the top of the room, I have about 500 keychains. I collect a rock on every hike I do. Plan to make a fountain in my front yard.______________________________________________ "...whatever stands against freedom must be set aside, be it ritual or superstition or limitation in any form."
