Where are your priorities man! Forsooth, build more shelves I tell you. Nice collecting hobbies though. Very cool even though currently not PC. I think PC needs a kick in the a** sometimes. Please post some pictures of your cig boxes. Oh, and cuff links are nice too. I just don't wear shirt and tie to work anymore and never will unless they give me a couple of promotions so I can afford dry cleaner all the time.
Thomas Kinkade Christmas Villages I forgot to mention that a couple of packages have started to come in that contained Thomas Kinkade lighted Christmas Village pieces. Some of you may remember that we have a nice outdoor Christmas light display. We are trying to add to our indoor decorations now. We've had the Christmas tree inside but not much else. I'll try and post some pictures. My wife collects horse plates and statues and porcelain hummingbirds.
2007-06-15 "The Cook's Illustrated Guide to Grilling and Barbecue" - Just in time for the 4th of July. You can guess what I'll be reading the weekend.
I have the donkey where you press his head down, and a smoke comes out his......ummmm........you know! :taunt005 :signs113
Here's a couple of the boxes. Hit the piano key and a smoke pops up. Push the bird down and he picks up a smoke. More later! [vbpg]452[/vbpg] [vbpg]453[/vbpg]
Here's a pair of links my wife gave me for our anniversary. 14K with inlay of onyx, tiger eye and lapis. The one on the right shows a reflection of the others edge. More later! [vbpg]454[/vbpg]
I guess I am really not addicted to much outside wet shaving. Gee, I guess I have got to find more addicitions. Addicted to only thriller litterature and action/adventure/ horror DVDs. Of course with a three year old at home I do not get a lot of time to find addictions.
I forgot about my pipes and tobacciana stuff. I have a bunch of old pipes, a coupla new ones, and assorted pipe racks and stands. I collect cigars too, but they never seem to stay around long.
I'm not as bad as some in this forum: Books - Approximatly one thousand of them all of them to read none to simply collect Wet Shaving - Heaven's I'm in trouble, more specifically Super Speeds. Have a soft spot of them.
You know walking sticks is something that i have always wanted to collect, unfortunaly i have looked and the only ones that i can find are either too novel or too utilitarian, biggest turn off is when i find a nice one but it had a rubber tip, i like the classic silver/metal or glass handle and metal tip. Very hard to find at least in good condition on the net. Where have you found luck?
It seems that i have always loved items from days gone by items that i have started collections of but havent gone to any depth in but i wish i could include: Walking sticks Camera (although i dont take many photos) Pipes Japanese woodblock prints Sword (preferably Japanese) pretty much anything traditional Japanese X-Box 360 Games and accesories Anime movies
