That is why you didn't claim it, and I did. Your opinion is that it's not what my opinion says it is. So it's not an assumption nor is it lame. It's an opinion whether you agree or disagree with it.

i don't really collect anything, i buy stuff and consume etc, but i don't have that slightly autistic collector mindset.
i'm just not a commited or dedicated person, i'm lazy & flakey. |

Books. The only things of mine I really care for and have a lot of.

do those state quarters count? i have most of the ones that have come out so far (maine and alabama are notable exceptions, and i can't find those anywhere for some reason . . . argh.) i also have some pretty weird coins, including multiple susan b. anthony dollars, multiple kennedy half-dollars, multiple wheat pennies, some of those 1943 pennies that weren't made of copper, various silver dollars dating as far back as the late 19th century, a couple buffalo nickels (the old ones, not the ones that have just come out recently), a mercury dime or two, and coins from canada, great britain (even halfpennies -- i understand they've been discontinued), greece, germany, france, spain, mexico, etc. (all prior to the era of the euro). i also have a box containing $25,000 in shredded currency.
and of course there's the obvious -- books, CDs, etc. i keep all my textbooks instead of selling them so i will have built up a sort of pseudo-academic "library" when i get older. i think that's about it.

Books. And Evergreen Reviews. I was going to try to collect Ginsberg's books, but I said "fuck that" and bought his big red book of all his poems and called it a night. I'm one of those beatnik-wannabes who buy all of the books. And I'm high. Did anyone else know that the strand had a wesbsite?

There was a guy I saw on tv recently that had collected 1000 copies of MJ's Thriller. He found them all on flea markets and it took him 2 years to get enough of them to make an artpiece. It cost him about 2000 euro's.

Man, you nailed it. It really does become less about the music at times. For example, I own a regular black White Light/White Heat and a white vinyl. I bought the black vinyl second, just to own a "normal" black vinyl copy, but I've never played it. And I'm going after different matrix numbers currently on my Sticky Fingers and Exile LPs. There's the 39100 series and the 59100s. Means something about when they were pressed, and I am totally into it.
