Hi Cindy!

Welcome to HKSS. Glad that you're starting your own website... It looks good.

My friends usually collect shot glasses every time they go somewhere.

How many miniature liquor bottles do you and Tom have now?

Hi Cindy,

My friend unfortunately doesn't have any pictures of their collection...

Believe it or not, but I collect menus from good food places, such as restaurants, etc. :) I have them all in my car and sometimes I just like to look at them and see what's good to eat for that day :)

So far, I've only been collecting menus in California. But as I'll leave to other states or countries, I'm sure I'll collect some more if the food is good enough to return ;)

My brother loves collecting business cards too.

One of my co-workers is a die-hard pig-lover, and every time he sees anyone eating pigs, he gives us that strange look :)

I was having accessing certain forum sites last few days. I tried to format my pc last nite n now it's ok!
Well, I'm not collecting pig, but I got a small pig toy here, which is a gift from someone from China. It's green color, i think it's special. I'll post it when got chance.

Hi Eddy,

I used to love collecting baseball cards not too long ago as well. Fun! I am in to maps, too. I have a few nice ones that I have framed and hung of New York and the Galapagos Islands.

Take care!

Hi lexi,

Neat that we share some of the same hobbies, I just think maps brings back memories easily, most of my maps are in extremely bad shape.

Mike,

I bet my basketball collection is worth a good amount of money right now, i remember having rookie cards of some of the top players nowadays.
It's in my attic somewhere.................................... :mad:

Hi Eddy,

I don't think I had anything of great value in my baseball cards but they were still fun to collect.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
