    i collect computer viruses and store them on my little linux cluster

    I have a nice little collection of computer viruses as well. Ever since someone put up a site on the net which contains thousands of viruses (most don't affect windows), it kinda killed the novelty.

    I collect 8-tracks!!!

    I've got a few interesting ones, including some 8-track porn. If you have no clue what that is, it's basically really cheezy porno dialogue on an 8-track tape. I also have a few really nifty bootlegs and tons of Elvis.

    I have always collected soundtrack recordings from films and Asimov non-fiction such as his history series.

    I also collect rhythm patterns. I hear an interesting rhythm and write it down.

    I collect books, mainly about Florida history, religion and the Bible, flower gardening, etc. I also am a collector of stamps, Florida fossils, some coins (the 50 states in particular) I used to collect Louisiana antique bottles, and displayed them in the Carencro Bottle Museum. But they were stolen, so I no longer do that. I still get upset if I think too long about it.

    I collect to much: fairy - dragon - turtle - snail and blue/white figurines, antique crystal glasses and plates (Imari - Chinese Dutch) and vases, tea and dinner services (one french antique) - towels (started at 18 still have unused ones) jewels (gems), glass paper weights and BOOKS over a thousand on the attick.... used to have over 6000 and then my then brother-in-law bought my parental house and started to get rid of my books.....

    My mum saved 1/6th and I started buying again.....

    Today my family (and friends) knows I can't store any more in my house.... and I am trying (with ample result) to part from a lot of things.... but only when I am sure that the receiving party put a value on it.....
