Do You Collect Anything. What's Your Passion.?

Question

Mine is inexpensive and plain watches. Sort of a reaction to high tech multifunctionalism. Timex and noname novelty watches are a few. My fav is a Skagen from Denmark. SS with a silver face, shiny silver hands and nothing else, no second hand, no numbers, no day/date. Simplicity. And none over $15

Man, venomous little critters, huh?
I splashed a bit on a Gordy years ago.

Some neat stuff there. Sister in law does tea pots, mother in law used to do angel figurines but finally said "Stop buying me things I have to dust". Miniature shoes is one that's different.

Answer 1

Yes! I collect points here on Y!A

Answer 2

From the looks of my house, outsiders would swear I collected Standard Poodles ( beasts, one and all, too damned smart for my good, always into something evil, know exactly how to get my "goat," and know exactly how to look totally angelic when caught....the "Whaaaat," look is growing very old at this point. I am ready to take them to a vet, have their ears cut, and change them into Dobermans! IT could only be an improvement. The real kicker is when company comes, thinks I am Dr. No when I scold the ......dogs.....no one sees what I see...clipping bills at 125.00 each, every month! 4, 600 pounds of dog food a week, and 7,000 pound of dog crap a day...how do dogs make so much from so little????? They think the command, "Off" refers to insect repellant, "Stay" is a oldie but goodie song by Dean Martin, and "Sit" is a command given only to people! I have never struck these beasts, and I hope that I can say that next week...but my patience is growing very thin..about as thin as my hair. I pay all these grooming bills, and yet rebel at paying 10.00 for a hair cut! Something is seriously wrong with me...HELP!
As for collecting, I came up with the Brrrrrrilliant idea of collecting coins..after all, how much could a nickle or penny cost? Right? ... Let's get back to those very inexpensive dogs, can we?

Answer 3

I collected Avon Cape Cod glass in a former life. Much of it has been sold and I'd like to sell the rest. I am a loner and at this time in life I've been known to collect people like you. It is much more satisfying to communicate with you people than to have to have someone under foot or keep up a conversation on some topic for which you totally lack interest. Hope you don't mind if I display you on the mantel.
