Yes, I collect both of those. I also have a wide variety of "Unpaid Bills". Many of which I have not paid, simply by choice, and for no other reason..

I have a glass jar, of which I "Break-Wind" into, as often as I can. The collection has grown rather large, and I've moved it to bigger jars, on several occasions over the past 15 years.

I Ebayed, my last collection, and got top dollar for it, from a natural Gas supply company, in Europe. I aim to get bigger money for this collection though, because the price of "Gas" has gone up so much in the past few years.

I once had a smaller collection, but when I was moving, I dropped the jar in the driveway, and it broke. My contribution to the environment. The smell was terrible, and I watched the clouds part, as it made it's way into the OZONE layer and hastilly burned a hole, clean through it...

LOL, Trucky

I have a dozen or so Corgi cars from the late 1970's. Didn't keep the boxes though-- then they'd be worth somethin'.

As a second Generation Pack Rat with the regressive Gene associated with the curse, all I can say is whats next!
I had over 10 thousand albums (remember those big round black things that went out with the 80's?) I sold them when the remote croaked on the TV. Bought a new remote that came with a new TV. (made sence at the time, Still have said tube too.) My friends think I'm Fred Sanfords iligitimate white son. Mom didn't think so! At any rate I've got a 40 foot tractor trailer , trailer packed wall to wall, floor to ceiling with god knows what!
