    I love collecting money, preferably $1000 US bills.:)

    Good one!

    Elephants, I have a "few"........


    ""

    FISH-O

    They are wonderful creatures. We have a thing we do at the end of the day with my son. It starts with, "Hey Elephant!" ... We blow kisses and catch them, take the kiss, place it on our heart and say, "Close to my heart.". It started many moons ago. The Elephant part seemed to fit. :)

    Did you know if the elephants trunk is up it brings extra good luck ?
    Bob/PKB

    Trunk up and rear end facing the door, I'm told. They're a favorite of mine, too!

    I have been collecting registration stickers for i do not know how long,,stickers for boats,cars,trailers tractors,,anything that i have owned,,however in Aussie we do not get stickers anymore..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

    FISH-O

    We still do. Are they scanning retinas now? :D
    As long as they have high heels i don't mind,
    FISH-O

    I leave the high heels for you. You wear them far better than I.

    Crystal......It's all about collecting crystal. I've been scouting around all the second hand shops and have scored some great pieces.

    That is amazing. I wish I knew that a few years ago! Dang... you would have received a great big parcel in the mail. :)

    You do realize that you are ahead of the collecting curve. Very cool.

    Me too python lover. I found a pair of Waterford candlesticks a few years ago at a tag sale for $1.50. It was a great find.

    Waterford is my favourite.I'm on the look out for a pair of crystal swans.
    FISH-O

    Oh my goodness. I have donated so much crystal, the two of you are killing me. ... Dang! A few mailing addresses and the crystal world could have been your oyster!

    I'm sure your crystal went to a good home.
    FISH-O

    I hope so... I was talking to a woman in the market where I work and she did the same thing as I. I thought about the two of you. Darn it, she is from Lebanon, lived in France and has travelled the world. ... When she moved to British Columbia she downsized, put the crystal on the road with a 'FREE' sign and no one wanted it. ... Now, people want it.

    Irony is painful.

    I collect junk. Old...broken appliances, electronics, small machines, electronic test equipment...all before 1970...and tools and process descriptions. Old iron, assembly components...nuts,bolts,screws, plastic...lots of plastic and metals. I also make tools and reproduce parts that are not available any other way. It's the most fasenating hobby and often profitable. Repair and clean-up an old (1940-1950) kitchen appliance can bring $40.00 at a yard sale because it works, looks clean and known for long term use. The cash value is less important to me now but the hobby keeps me going for more.      

    FISH-O

    That is interesting and funky at exactly the same time. :)

    Frogs (not real ones). I have quite a collection. Mom traveled a lot and always brought me one (or more), so it's pretty cool. My favorite is a glazed clay baby grand piano with a frog sitting on the piano bench. 

    FISH-O

    I love frogs. The handles on my kitchen cupboards are frogs. I rescued them in my past pet store life, I love them... I also love turtles. However, I can not eat the chocolate kind :D Turtles. No one has invented chocolate frog delectable yet and if they have, I have never come across them.
    Bob/PKB

    You gave me the website for those frog handles!
    FISH-O

    I completely forgot about that. I am going to refinish them this year.

    regarding shoes, comfort 1st, a little style 2nd.  i collect books, and then give them away or sell them, and I love beautiful bottles, i keep a few, and admire others from afar. I collect a little art work. i collect a few dice, because dice reminds me of life (you never know what you're going to get when the dice rolls). or when the sun goes down or up.

    FISH-O

    You are a curious creature!
    tabber

    FISH-O seriously, what do you mean by 'you are a curious creature.' i will answer what you're curious about. seriously i'm curious.
    FISH-O

    It's a reference to Alice in Wonderland. It is a compliment.

    Sorry about that Tabby-Tabs. I make comments that are references to other books as well. I now know why at times, people look at me as if I have lost my mind :D ... I too am a curious creature. :)
    tabber

    FISH-O no apology necessary. I was just curious regarding what you meant. What i would do and i do it all the time. i'll say something to someone, that i heard or read, and then i tell the person where that thought came from so they have a reference and won't look at you 'like you are crazy'. one of my favorites is when i'm taking to people & the conversation get to complicated, like it is now, i'll say "simplicity is the height of cultivation". according to bruce lee. most people can relate to some parts of that. love you fish-o!
    FISH-O

    I imagine I assume that everyone is familiar with the famous quote, "Curiouser and curiouser!", Lewis Caroll ... Point well taken Tabby-Tabs, thanks!

    You two have just blown my curious mind to pieces! lol

    No "thing" for me....not a collector anymore....more like a "tosser", although I do admit to having several more books on hand than what I really need. (Don't let me near any book sales...you know the kind that have books for $1.00 - $2.00?)     :)

    FISH-O

    I have had to stop doing that... I haven't enough time to read the books I do have. :(
    Ducky

    Moderator
    I have enough books to last me for the rest of my life. Many books look "good" to me. :)
    FISH-O

    I have four new ones, one on loan... I am addicted to information at the moment. I have even dug books up from the darkest depths of my basement ..... I love books.... we shouldn't even go there.
    Bob/PKB

    Yep, I came back from a bowling tournament with a bag of $1 hardcovers, quarter paperbacks, and ten-cent magazines. More cookbooks. Another craft book....

    Okay!

    I don't have the money to pursue or collect my  " things "

    FISH-O

    Whhhhhaaaaatttt? Collect something small instead. Teeny-tiny and super cool like Bobble Heads In miniature only now found in second hand stores.

    Imagination has no boundaries unless we tell it to do so.
    Bob/PKB

    Spools, corks, safety pins, sand dollars, snail shells, recipes from the newspaper, state and park quarters....
    FISH-O

    Found lucky coins, dinosaur nails, feathers, Lego, stray dogs... the world is your oyster.... literally. (I did not make that up.) ... Very cool vintage bottle caps. Hot Wheels Mustang cars only.... the list is endless.

    Many things can be collected without money. It only takes "interest". Enjoyment is created not (necessarily) purchased.

    I like to collect my gray hair and it doesn't cost me a split end. :)
    FISH-O

    I have developed a few of those lately. I hear they are the gift that keeps on giving. .... Like wrinkles.

    Diecast metal cars. Preferably 1-24 scale.I have about 200 of them.

    Unfortunately I don't have any from that era,(I wish!)

    Cows and cow prints and country decor.

    It was my idea....you go first. LOL

    Easy and dull and crazy… I collect ring tabs. I’ll bend over to pick up a stray. I’ll ask complete strangers for the one on their cans! I have 42 fifth bottles filled to the rim with these…….


    A false rumor that has plagued the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) and the aluminum industry for decades has recently resurfaced, perhaps fueled by the Internet. Individuals and groups believe they can donate the pull tabs on aluminum cans in exchange for time on a kidney dialysis machine. 

    Such a program has never existed through the NKF, nor have there ever been programs through the foundation allowing people to exchange any type of item (box tops, product points, etc.) for time on dialysis.

    and jiggers! You have a beautiful collection of jigggers/shot glasses
    jhharlan

    I can say so now, beauties from N.Y.......
    Bob/PKB

    And everywhere else; did you get one at Cheers?
    jhharlan

    Nope. Just a mug that reads CHEERS. Have yet to use it (or any of the shot glasses for that matter)......
    Bob/PKB

    I've just started using my travel mug from Boston. Use my various coffee cups often
    jhharlan

    My octopus cup only holds 2-3oz.! I have to use my Mystic Aquarium cup. I suppose I could cover the octopus with dark rye and be seeing double sea monsters by the time I finish......
    Bob/PKB

    That's worth trying at least once
