for the past 15 years I've kept every bike tube I've swapped out from being flat. I train soccer teams and we've transformed them into workout bands. Chatty Kathy = Listener Matt (Ace of Base non-fan)---Bike tube collector...forgot to mention I have about 2000 tubes from all of those flats I've swapped out and just this year started using them for resistance bands with soccer training. My wife was going to make me throw them out, but couldn't.
I have a collection of old Disney VHS movies. Periodically I will go to the DI and try to find ones I dont have
my daughter collects monster energy drink cans. She has so many they have taken over her room. She says she is going make some kind of artwork with them but it drives me crazy??

I collect random rocks I pick up, every where, if it speaks to me, I pick it up
