I dont hesitate to ask this question now..........i wont hesitate to ask this question in 20 years.After all,dont you have to be a little bit crazy to be a bottle collector?[8|].......i think its absolutely crazy how some very serious collectors act like CIA agents.[8|][&:][:'(]

You have to understand that we come from all walks of life on this forum. What another person can or will spend, some won't. It can cause a heated debate, and really we're all here for one reason. The love of collecting. We love to show off our bottles, whether or not it's worth something to another person. After all, something is only worth what a person wants to pay. And to some, no matter what kind of bottle they have (worth a million or a penny), to them, their collection is priceless.

I get it, kid, you're curious... and stubborn. I have TWO of those running around my house. [:D]

LOL you tell um Gromit. Kids runnin rampit,wouldnt last long digging with me.Where is he? where did he go? Quick fill the pit in! [8D][:-]

I collect what I dig. I dont buy anything nowadays. I might one day but for know I am happy not knowing what will be sitting on my shelf next. I got one money bottle and I dug it. I still have it.
Do you have any specific angle to collecting or just whatever you dig?[:)]

Thanks.

Can you tell me how to report to Admin that you find a certain member of the forum to be a nuisance? That by talking so much, he has infected every discussion group? That he's basically a one-man-spam operation and provides precious little of meaningful interaction..? That at least one member here wants you to grow up quicker....?

Wait a minute,is this Chuck or is this Chuckdillon a cross between Chuck & Cord [:D]

Not really the most admirable attributes.

Now if being a pain in the a ss and a general nuisance is your thing, try this.

Ask people how much they make a year, that's always a winner.

Got one even better.........what's your moms SS#,CC#& security# [it's the one on the back],PIN#............plus here checking accnt. #.

Boy, we could have a grand ol' time with mom huh?

Ask people how much they make a year, that's always a winner.

Also ask them what religion they are and if they're Republican or Democrat.
