@MrLizard I'd love to hear about the results of that study.

I only collect things that I am emotionally connected to and / or will tend to appreciate in value. I look at my collections as something to enjoy and as an additional source of retirement income if needed.

@MrLizard I can relate to your pain my friend. I did a purge in 2010 when I moved to SEA from SFO. 15 boxes of books to the library. 2 pickups from Goodwill and a couple dump runs. I had lived there for 15 years... I had a rental house here for 2 years and did another purge in 2012 when I moved into my house. That definitely helps.

what kind of music?

@btroje Mostly light rock, acoustic, alternative and classic rock. There's a video on my profile page. Here's a link to an audio track I did. It's a cover of the Foo Fighters "Learn To Fly". My son played bass and drums. I did guitar and vocals.

@Duke wanted to listen but did not want to download the listening app

@btroje Crap. That must be new. I specifically chose Chirbit to upload that because you didn't need to install an app. All you had to do in the past was just go to the link. Try it on a PC if you get the opportunity. Otherwise, you can check out the YouTube video posted on my profile page.

@Duke will check out you tube. I am on my laptop

@btroje Try the link above also while on your laptop. It should take you directly to the recording without having to install an app.

@MrLizard Is not what you put faith on or what you doubt. Don't be my shrink and I won't be your bully.

@MrLizard Just remember life never meant to be fair. I am in Phase 3... The time to give a fuck about things and act on it was Phase 2. Phase 3 is less worry and more living. The mystery not revealed by now had lost importance and significance. I am out of the Rat Race.

@MrLizard jazz, Prog, 80s new wave/alternative, classic rock. I bought my first record in 1973 when I was 8. It was the Beatles. I've also sold unloaded about 200 or so albums over the years that I now regret parting with. Never again!

@MrLizard We have the complete works of Raymond E Feist some 30 odd books, all hardcover, some multiples, some covers from different countries and hope to get the last few signed next time he visits Oz. Also have the Original CD Rom Game, Betrayal at Krondor, which is also signed, Feist himself had not seen that version. We have an original radio screenplay of Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy with the actors comments and notes all through it, same for the Tommy play featuring music from The Who plus assorted sci books we liked,my daughter does a lot of Comic Con type events so gets them signed there as well.

yes I would love to visit any of my friend's museums.THe things will last longer that way

@Stevil I got an antique 8 foot arched doorway at a Re-store that was taken out of an old Spanish style house in Santa Fe. I love it

@Stevil what are the pillars made of?
