This is a question My Collection

Do you have display cabinets full of stuff? With it all neatly labelled, cross-referenced and entered into a database. Have you been to a convention? Do other collectors look up to you in awe?

I thought I was above this one. I'm not that autistically geeky that I have a Collection with a capital C. But no, I remembered I'm hoarding away every version of "Inside Macintosh" ever published.

What do you collect? And why? I mean, what makes you do it?

I collected cow bones as a kid.
We lived on the edge of town, and there was a creek within walking distance. My dad and I would walk down there and we'd find all kinds of cow bones an old farmer had dumped from dead/butchered cows.

My dream was to collect a whole skeleton and wire it together. Maybe I'd get my picture in the paper and be famous!

No luck. We found plenty of teeth, but never a full skull, and only chips of ribs. The leg bones survived pretty well, but only the hind ones.
