....Now I'm all Forklempht.....twalk amonst yaselves....
No, seriously, don't you hate it when the dog gets to the mail before you
do? Boy, Deadbra Ann was pissed (not "on", at least). She's ok, inspite of
being dead and all, but her coffin has some....."character" now. So much
for mint collectable. Oh well, she's free!
Anyone else out there collect fun creepy stuff/ antiques, etc? It's kind
of an obsession with me. That and the crack.....oops!

blame him for having good "taste"? =)

I have a lot of "collections"..but most are pretty lame.
I collect teacups, but most of them were inherited by my grandma...I have
about 30+. I"ve studied them all, and at least five are highly valuable,
two made in occupied japan, one made in East Berlin, and so on.
My husband collects beer steins, and we picked one up at a thrift store for
about two and a half bucks...and lo. Made in East Germany.
I have a full set of series one living dead dolls (I ran out of space and
funds shortly after their release *EEP*), and I also collect smoking
paraphernilia and barware. I have an old ass gold plated antique barset,
including bottleopener, corkscrew, olive spoon, strainer, and double sided
shot. I also have a full set of universal movie monster shot glasses
(replica's of the monster's heads hollowed out WHEE) and numerous others
like evil dead shots and van goh shots. I have a lot of barware...cuz I
like to drink
I also have an original camel refilable lighter and a "memory of japan"
enamel lighter with "occupied japan" on it...
I am a world class conniseur of CRAP....

Collections...dead bodies...no wait...fingernails from dead bodies...no
wait teeth....oh wait they probably want normal things.
I collect shot glasses from different states and also just cool looking
ones too. Hubby and I both collect Taz things. We've got a bunch of Taz
ornaments hanging all over the house, and Taz stuffed animals, and a Taz
desk lamp, and a Taz mouse pad, and a car named Taz...to mention a few.
Oh and I like collecting paychecks, but then I guess everyone does that so
it's not original. ____________________ "When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never

Oh, my husband also collects old german items...and he about pissed himself
when I brought home my great grandmother's made in germany 1900 hand held
accordion. It's the size of a cigar box, in "antique" shape, but still
plays! He also collects every book he can find on nazi germany and
WWI/WWII.
PS~ I am hereby boycotting the practice of dusting. I don't dust. Ever.
If anyone has a free weekday evening, you can dust my irreplacables for
NOTHING! What a joy!
PSS~ you break it, you buy it. ____________________ Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas. |

Oh! Have you seen those WWII GI-Joes Bettie? They have even have vehicles!
I saw them at Toys R Us while looking for a PS2 memory card...for some
reason though they were taken out of the store rather quickly. ____________________ but at least you know, just how much pain there is in living |

My family used to have an anitique mall, and we had some pretty interesting
German pieces. Medals and such. I didn't like their energy, but I can still
say they were interesting.
We got some Welcome Back Kotter dolls in their boxes (I am still kicking
myself over this one). Somebody bought them aka not me.
I don't have much in the way of barwear, except for some funky wine bottle
stoppers and a couple of antique French Absinthe spoons I do like trivets.
When I don't use them, they look nice on the wall.
I don't collect any one thing, I guess. I love creepy stuff, oddities, and
devil things. (Not just any devil things though. I hate that "lil devil"
tattoo parlor flash-type stuff)
I wish I could post some pics, but I think I may be pc illiterate.
PS- BettyX, let me know if you ever want to sell any of your LDD's! (I'm
doubting it, but it was worth a shot.) |

Uhm....I will let YOU know first if I ever do
There is an antique mall in renton, wa that had some killer WWII nazi shit.
Medals, bayonettes, knives, and other such things...even a pipe with a
nazi emblem.
He's interested in WWII, but more just on german stuff to begin with. He
DOES have the German Luftwaffe articulated doll in that series of "true
military" dolls that came out....the fucker LOOKS like a nazi! (typical
sense anyway) Squared off face, blonde crew cut, blue eyes, and the
Luftwaffe uniform. They didn't put the swastikas on his uniform and his
little tiny medals like they should be, but I understand why.
I do love actual "devil" stuff, but I don't like the super cheezy crap. My
favorite devil artist is Coop (the all red super busty extra naughty devil
girls you see on zippos and on a lot of Lords of Acid album covers). I
also have a small dracula collection...I have a two inch bobblehead, a foam
keychain, and numerous action figures and shotglasses.
I don't really think I collect anything at all but junk. I love my junk.
Love my junk sooo mmmuch.

oooo vargas...I ADORE VARGAS GIRLS!
We just got bettie page body jewelery at work the other day....and if it
weren't for the bat navel bar I already have (it's sooooooooo cute!) I
would be all sorts of down with it.
If we'd only get plugs in with bettie in them I"d be SET.

I collect spider stuff. I've got an iron spider on web, huge black spider
with long legs, purple spiderweb lights, various candle holders, jewelry,
etc., a big glow-in-the-dark one, a stuffed one, knitted on my gloves,
carved on a stone, and an orange bouncy ball spider. Also a laser pointer
with spiders on it, but it doesn't work. I got a sort of
pinky orangy spiderweb wall hanging for Christmas. I hung it up because it
was from my boyfriend's kids, but I put it in the bathroom because his ex
put her name on the package.
My boyfriend collects skulls.
I've started to collect aliens and frowny faces to piss the ex off. She
collects aliens and smiley faces, and she recently accused me of trying to
replace her because I bought some army-navy surplus stuff. Sorry to break
it to you bitch, but you are already replaced! But it's fun to piss her
off. And since I have to deal with her, I may as well have fun doing
it!
I'm starting a collection of new moon (or crescent, actually) for my
daughter, Riley, since she was conceived and born within 24 hours of a new
moon. I want to get her Emily Strange stuff. |

I collect naked, semi-naked, or fully naked chick dolls. Primarily of the
warrior princess variety although I've found some very interesting female
warrior dolls from other companies. Oddly enough it can be an expensive
hobby but I like it. I have a twelve inch orginal Xena, it's the prize of
my collection. ____________________ It's like kegel exercises for your throat.~Monolycus |

Shadow, Here's a vampire bust that I'm selling on eBay. I've had it awhile
but I'll be moving (again) so I'm unloading a bunch of things, plus there's
the Living Dead Doll habit. Unfortunately, I have to get what I paid for
it, which is the opening bid. but I thought you might like to see it. Here's a linky.
http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=
1469&item=2903001713&rd=1
ps- to anyone out there who may not like me- PLEASE don't sabotage my
auctions! I can be an asshole (I know this) but I'm a pretty nice person in
general. Plus I'll turn your neck into a tree branch...but that
aside..... ____________________ A word to the wise, is unnecessary |
