    I have no clue what any of those guns are. Can you name them off please?

    I'm guessing some of them are Glocks?

    That's not everything, just what was handy.

    Truthfully, the craziest thing I have in my "collection" is an 1813/1814 Napoleonic wars campaign medal for the Dutchy of Anhalt-Bernburg. Only 400 awarded. In 1815. Pretty sure I'm never going to meet anybody else that has one.

    Oh...I also have a pretty cool NASA collection I interited from my dearly departed father including some of his awards where two of the awards have small flags where one flag went into space on the Columbia space shuttle to commemorate the Apollo 11 25th anniversary and another one went to the moon aboard the Apollo lander in December 1972, some original photo prints of my Dad working at NASA and of the original astronauts back in the early 60s, a used Columbia space shuttle tile from the heat shield, and other awards my Dad got. So, that's a pretty cool collection of stuff to have that I proudly display in his honor and remembrance. It's kind of weird to have items that flew on, or were part of, Columbia as that is the one that blew up in the o-ring disaster in 1986. In another nod to Columbia, it's the orbiter that the members of Rush saw launch from Florida when they went and they ended up writing a song about called "Countdown" on their Signals album where they used actual communications between mission control and the astronauts aboard it in parts of the song.

    How many do you have and what is your price range?

    Is it for looks or the quality of watches?


    I have about 20+ so far, mid-range but looking to splurge on a good skeleton watch.
    I don't even like guns but I think those are cool and would not mind having a collection of them.

    That pic just gets more creepy every time I look at it.

    I just noticed the other Karen at the top right, they look like they might all be related, can you imagine thanksgiving in that house?

    Lot of apples in the potato salad and the Turkey is as dry as they are.

    In the 80's, these were the laughingstock of Porches. Both it and the 944 were made by Audi and not considered true Porches.

    These days they might be retro cool, but upgrade to the 944 or the 968 if you like this style.
