What Do You Collect?

[Zombie]

I have access to the mailing addresses of hundreds of murderers. My friend has the list but I never write them directly. I have autographed art from Manson as well as Lee Boyd Malvo (the younger of the Washington D.C. Beltway Snipers) and a couple of John Wayne Gacy pieces. I also have autographed letters from Terry Nichols, Dennis Rader (BTK), Ted Kaczynski (Unabomber), Wayne Williams (Atlanta Child Killer), Edgar Ray Killen (Klan member that organized the murder of 3 civil rights people - Mississippi Burning movie is based off of), James Earl Ray (killed MLK Jr), Sirhan Sirhan (killed Sen. Robert Kennedy), and probably 15-20 others. The Rader, Kaczynski, and Sirhan Sirhan pieces are probably the most difficult to get.

I like your style. I was more a fan of "mafia hit men" and general serial killers. Richard Kuklinski and the confusion in a few areas about him has always intrigued me.

I collect vape stuff anymore lol, a little ammo, tools that I don't use anymore, used to collect knives and baseball cards.

Future ex-husbands.
Fabric.
Books, especially garmet construction, quilting, knitting and crocheting patterns.
Ammo.
Pets.

Not necessarily in that order ...

I do keep a bit of fabric around myself. Usually with some purpose in mind, but occasionally just because it was on sale.

Guns, and antique machine shop tools (lathes, mills, etc) that I restore back to factory new condition, and then put to use again.

That's really cool, Dennis. Some of that stuff gets pricey too, even when heavily worn. Buddy of mine restored an old Southbend last year.

Yeah, I've just finished up a 1946 southbend, and have permission to get a mechanical auto feed drill press from an old barn. Very unique gear system that auto feeds the quill, determined by the spindle speed. It still works! It will be a fun project taking it down to the bare frame, and rebuilding it. I need to find a brand name on it, so it can go back with the factory color scheme.

That sounds too cool. I'm a wannabe with a Harbor Freight 9x20 and a Grizzly mini mill. Got any pics of your resto projects?

Old fishing gear and of course those bang bang things

almost forgot the other, Coleman Quick Lites, getting harder to find now but I try to pick them up when I find them.

"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.
Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.”

Dennis,

I know I would get tired of the hard work, especially in bad weather, but I have to say to you and the other farmers and ranchers here, I admire the Hell out of you guys and wish I'd grown up with that experience.

Heck its never to late to get an experience. I would bet Dennis would put in a combine for a day.
