People collect all kinds of 'things'...

Like others here I collected baseball cards from ~88-92. I dumped alot of the commons at a garage sale one year, but have retained the ones that I feel have some value. I focused on Nolan Ryan especially. When I was checking the cards over I did find a Derek Jeter rookie card. I will hold onto that one for awhile.

Recently, (~04) I got into Hotwheels car collecting. I started with a very narrow focus of Mopar and muscle car castings, but it quickly spiraled out of control. I kept up with it for about 1.5 yrs before I burnt out. I have a lot of the pieces still in their packages mostly common ones. I do find more enjoyment now out of letting my boys tear into them. Bonus for not having to drop extra coin at the stores. Additionally, they make great party favors.

And as for cigars, I buy what I can smoke.

Come to think of it, I do have a helluva acorn collection in my backyard currently.

I collected about 20 acorns from LA Live Oaks when I was in City Park in NO
a month ago. Gonna plant em next year and try to keep them going in containers
until I finally buy a house.

Oh yeah I also forget I have a shot glass collection as well as mini liquor bottles - I need to find a nice way to display them though.

I try to collect guns and cigars but those are hard on the wallet. I have collect shot glasses also since I was a kid. I try to get one every time i go on vacation or somewhere cool.
