Ok, so having my camera out today to take pictures of my t.v. and guitar, I thought I’d take a picture of my “collection”
Jack Daniels is my winter drink, from late Sept. to late March. The big bottles you see are 60’s (60 ounces, 1.75 litres) and the very big one in the back is a “texas mickey(sp)” 3 litres. The reason I saved these is I’m going to build them into a bar one day. I’ve been saving them for the past 3 winters, and my gf actually threw out my first 3, not realizing I was saving them. There are a few 40 ouncers, and 26 ouncers that you can’t see 'cause they are hidden behind the others, plus a couple “mickeys” as we call them here, which are like half a 26er. I also did a photoshop pic that I will hang behind the bar once it’s done:
My guy collects pez dispensers, but not just any . . . I’d take a pic but I lost my digicam last weekend rafting New one will hopefully arrive SOON b/c I’m headed to Rome in 2 days and desparately want it with me.
Oh, and he collects and makes small things (hence me ). I’ll have to grab a photo of our “cabinet of wonders” (aka small crap) that he wont’ let any of us touch without explicit permission. :sure:
My mom is 4’ 11 1/2"…she’s always stressing the 1/2" lol…that is too funny My favourite is Jack and Gingerale ('cause Jack and Ginger just sound like a dance couple to me ), but cold, cold nights I have hot apple cider and Jack, and like I said, JD is my winter drink, but I’ll have a few(like under 10) drinks in the summer, and they are JD Smoothies…apple juice, crushed ice and of course Jack Daniels…they are killers in the hot sun I’ve also used JD in pizza dough, great taste, I’d recommend it to anyone. Jack Daniels barbeque sauce leaves a little to be desired, 'cept on Pork Chops - it’s amazing. Jack Daniel’s smoker chips for the bbq are also very good…um…I think I’m developing a problem…lol
**edit, and thanks for the comments on the PS pic…it printed out really nice
Somehow I ended up collecting the business cards from GAP stores. This started when I was maybe 14 and I took one from the Mall on another island (I grew up in Hawaii). So I had that card and was travelling somewhere and thought, I’ll take that one too…
I often forget to get them, but I have cards from stores in:
San Fran, CA
Hollywood, CA
Seattle, WA
Portland, OR
Las Vegas, NV
Tucson, AZ
Phoenix, AZ
Honolulu, HI
London, UK
NYC, NY
Orlando, FL
Boston, MA
Henderson, NV
Torrence, CA
Bellingham, WA
Edit… I guess I also collect domain names I like. I have about 94 of them.
I have the Pearlridge, and Alomoana ones. There are probably more stores there now.
I get them from the major stores and major cities, I guess some people collect postcards or magnets from the states they go to… I collect the GAP cards.
That is a ton of bottles. Cool stuff.
I used to collect the toys from those german kinder eggs things, but as I got older and when I could no longer get the real german ones I just ended up chucking them all. I only had like 150 or something, I wanted them all :*(
I used to have a bunch of those too…don’t know if they were the german ones?? I don’t even know what you mean by that…but it was like 50 or so…but when me and my ex-girlfriend broke up, she got 'em …now I have to pay Kindermony
Well the majority of the one’s I had I either bought in Germany personally or had my uncle that lived there send them to me. If you bought them in the states they were the cruddy American remake one’s. DANG AMERICAN’s. Crap. I’m american.
Mine we’re bought in Canada, but I’m sure they were the crappy kind Loved putting them together though…then every once in a while you’d get a “dud” the little metal guy that needed no assembly.
