 
     Along with a childhood of inattention from my dad, he also gave me the gift of the "Collection Gene". I have to collect things, weird things, odball things, normal things. Here's some that I have/are attempting:
  
    - Wacky-Packages  ♦  I would still collect these today if I coudl ever find them. 
- Old Time Radio  ♦  By far my biggest collection.  If I were to queue up all the files that I have and hit play, it would be approximately 5.5 years before you get to the end of the playlist. This is if you played it 24/7. 
- Baseball Cards  ♦  In 1989 I went NUTS buys any and all baseball cards that I could.  It was good timing as I have a couple of complete Upper Deck 1989 sets, their first offered, including the Griffey rookie. Once you realize what a scam sports cards are, it kinna ruins the fun. 
- Pogs  ♦  The less we say about this phase, the better. 
- MAD Magazine  ♦  One of my better choices, still collecting to this day. 
- LEGO  ♦  Can you say expensive? Thrift stores have caught on but have about 35,000 elements before they knew what they had. 
- Field Notes Notebooks  ♦  I have a SUBSCRIPTION to notebooks! 
- Comics  ♦  Unfortunately this just became to expensive and was replaced by ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ 
- Digital Comics  ♦  Still fairly active in this area, as a matter of fact if you downloaded comics when the scene first arrive, you probably downloaded one of my scans. You know, "another fine Baconscan..." 
- Playing Cards  ♦  This one I can't even begin to explain. 
- Board Games  ♦  My current active collecting.  This seems to be fairly harmless as I can find 2 or 3 a week at the Thrift Shop for under 5 bux. 
- Various Digital Files  ♦  This is the one that I have kept up with the longest. There is something about downloading and collecting files. Organizing , catalogging files such as:
      
        - Audiobooks 
- Movies/TV ISO's 
- Wallpaper images 
- Animated GIF's 
- Virtual Pinpall 
- ANY type of emulation
