Are You a Collector? Part 2 of 2

Welcome to my blog!

In Part 1 of "Are you a Collector?", I briefly went over my weird habit of collecting things and asked for input from other collectors.

In this entry, I thought I'd outline some of my collections. When I went to sketch some of the details, I was amazed at some of the stuff I collected and other items I had forgotten to think about in terms of a collection.

Well here goes....


DVDs -

  • Movies
  • TV series
  • Sports-related
  • Other
CDs -
  • Performers
  • Movie/TV Soundtracks
  • Christmas music (a semi-obsession of mine, but I think it's cured!)
Books -
  • Non-fiction (esp biographies)
  • Personal Finance
  • TV/Movie related
Trading Cards -
  • Non-Sport (movies, tv, art, etc)
  • Sports (mainly one time champion sets, ie World Series, Superbowl)
Matchbox Cars - no real breakdown - dates from childhood.

Mugs - mainly from places I've (or others) visited

Collector plates - Star Wars and Bond

There's probably a ton of other little things but the above represents the bulk of my collections.

OK - now it's your turn to share! List some of your categories in the comments section!

I do find society to be rather crass - I work among the public every day and see just how self-centered we as a society have become. It's all about "me" and what can you do for "me"? There's no chivalry in every day interactions. Kids are even worse - there's just no standard being set for them by their parents. I find I am losing touch with the latest in technology - even though at one time I was a programmer and had my eyes and ears open to what was happening in the industry. I had a previous blog entry about Facebook/My Space, but I can easily write about iPods and iPhones (though I am impressed by the iPhone commercials highlighting some of the apps available) being beyond me and my needs. I barely had time to embrace Web 1.0 before they started foisting Web 2.0 on me. All my favori...
