That's for damn sure!

shattered dreams and motivation (kept in the finest bottle of Mississippi Mud).
Other than that, I've got sports cards I no longer collect and a nice slew of military coins.

I'm a mechanic, I know all about this one. Less collection more obsession though. If it has a use, wether I need it or not, I'm going to buy it. The tools guys see people like me from a mile away.

Baseball autographs and memorabilia and civil war books and civil war relics. Have mostly focused on my civil war collection but still occasionally pick up some autographs.

I've got tons of American stamps and related postal items - plus some old US money. Got a good collection of foreign money friends and family have been bringing me from their travels over the years. Like Brad said, I try not to go too crazy (i.e. Mac) or I'd have too much chit and nowhere to put it. One thing I would love to collect is fishing lures. I've dodged that fantasy because I know if I ever start, it'll be my demise. I just love a well-made, old fishing lure.

[quote=Sancho Fuente;1279776]I know that everyone here shares an interest in collecting cigars, but what else do you collect besides them.
For me, its beer stiens and intersting liquor bottles. . .

Is that a Yuengling B&T beer stein? I love yuengling. I would kill for one of those.

Cigars and video games. I have a 72 cd holder
full of 360, PS3 and PS2 games. On steam I have somewhere around 50 games in my library.
I also have backups of (nearly) every DVD that has come into my house. I'm a bit of a digital hoarder (with 3 TB of space
:-))

Nice Mac!
I used to collect guns and ammo before I got into cigars.
Like the shirts say... "ATF should be a convenience store, not a gov't agency"

I used to be a collector of Pillsbury Doughboy stuff. I haven't searched any out for years but still have the stuff I got in the 90's and early 2000's.

Do you backup BluRay? If so, what software do you use.
Sorry...back on topic....
