Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well I have a collection of books, which I didn't collect myself. But I also got a collection of coins, from Soviet Union scattered around somewhere, in a pile of Estonian coins. That's nothing I care about much.

What I personally collect is PCBs and various electronic devices. My coolest thing is the power plant boiler thermal regulator I suppose. I also got parts of a missile launcher from a military base but those are mostly mechanical or frame parts.. The thing didn't have much electronics on it.

Oddities of all sorts....I've gone through phases, from flyers for events(when i lived in dc we wall papered an apartment with rave flyers)...I was big on bullet shells when i was in the marines corps, when I was little me and my brother used to collect train track spikes...sake glasses when I was in japan...the nicest thing I came across was when I was collecting books...my grand mother gave it to me and I still have it...it's a three book transdaltion of the divine comedy, it's an antique, in the old fasion thick paper with really ellegant ink, with the italian verse on one page, parralled by the english translation on the next...the center of each book is illustrated with dante's sketches...it's beautiful really. I have this pretty cool flyer from oaxaca mexico about this shaman...maria sabina...priestess of the mushrooms....she's toking a big fat joint on it..
