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?

pink hats
This morning I realised that I have inadvertently started a collection of pink hats. (This isn't a euphemism for anything frankspencerist, btw).
Not as exciting or versatile as the vast collection of empty cans of Mountain Dew (remember that!) that I had at uni - you can't build a wall out of four pink hats*, or if you could it wouldn't make a lovely jangly crashy sound when you jumped on it.
Now I think about it, people actually used to leave empty Mountain Dew cans outside my door.
I don't know if it was because they wanted to add to my collection or whether it was because they couldn't be arsed to find a bin.
Still, I'm grown up now.
* am sure the late Ronnie Barker would make a great joke out of this somehow.
