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?

Scabs - Made for each other
When I was little I used to collect the scabs that you accumulate on knees, elbows etc when you are running around playing soldiers and the like. I used to wait to they were just ripe then pick them off: you want just a bit of gooeyness underneath as I recall.

I even made my own special lego box with a flip lid and a clear plastic brick (which was rare in those days) so I could admire them.

The best thing is that the soon to be Mrs Gusof recently confessed to me that she had a strange collection when she was young. Yes, she too used to collect her scabs in a box. That sealed it for me. Getting married later this year.

(She didn't eat hers though; philistine).
