[SWCollect] What ‘Path’ are you currently on?

2004-03-15 Thread ommail


I find it fascinating that our hobby takes us down many different paths, far and away 
from software collecting.  Sometimes they’ve taken us deep into unknown territory, 
hunting for that possible elusive copy, and we get a bit of culture with our favorite 
dish.  Sometimes they’re good, and sometimes they’re bad (See C.E. Forman’s ‘Detroit 
Suck City’ review on his website), but they take us to places and ideas that we never 
would’ve ventured otherwise.  I’m currently involved in a few Museum projects that are 
showing me new people, places, things, and ideas that I NEVER would’ve seen before.  
My latest project is showing me Hollywood special effects, taxidermy, and window 
display personnel—all on behalf of my gaming obsession!  I’ll surprise you all with 
pictures this week as the project ‘gels’, but I just wanted to ask if everyone else on 
the boards has as much fun with these diversions as I do?

One thing that fascinates me about our hobby is: We are from
Scandinavia, Portugal, the USA, Canada, Germany, etc., essentially half
the globe, and it connects us. 

This is probably not unique to our hobby, but still, in our microcosm we
span the macrocosm.
