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?

Shot glasses and badges
I have a mighty collection of shot glasses from around the world (well...the U.S.A and the UK, anyway) - Back in the days of lots of usenet activity, I belonged to a general newsgroup and set up a trade - I would send out things like English Mustard and Hendersons Relish and what not to pals in the States, and in return they would send peanut butter candies and/or shot glasses. It worked out pretty good, too! Lots and lots of glasses, including some pretty funky Jack Daniels ones amongst many others! I've enhanced this collection on my own trips to the States and pretty much wherever I go in the UK, I pick up one as a souvineer.

When I was much younger (around 16 or so) I started to collect all the different types of Bourbon (and Jack Daniels) bottles I had emptied :-) That was a pretty impressive load of empty bottles there for a while, but in the end, they had to go.

I like Bourbon.

And Jack Daniels, too.

And I have loads of pin badges attached to a bag that I cart all of my guitar playing periphery around in.

I got badge but I'm not a badger.
