You only have 10? (just kidding)
I do not have even half of this numberā¦
I invest more in ammo than in guns
I am older than you so I have been collecting them longer (well it sounded like a good excuse)
I think itās more about the moneyā¦ not age
Butā¦ who knows, maybe I will turn my basement into a small storage soon?
I think I might see one or two there I donāt have yet. ( again just joking)
War gaming on table top mostly Warhammer 40k, Battletech as well. For anyone who knows anything about 40k I have/had (been selling for quite some time) the entire Ulthwe Craftworld. Back in early 90ās when Magic the Gathering was first getting started, WoTC started another card game called Battletech the TCG. They had smaller tournaments and I was the number 1 ELO ranked player in the world (itās the ranking system used by chess players and Magic the Gathering players) anyways I won alot of tournaments and alot of times some of the prize was in store credit and collectible artwork from the Battletech card game, so I used the in store credit and prize money to buy Eldar and eventually got Games Workshop to give me what they considered the " definitive" Eldar army for the Ulthwe Craftworld. So now I have an entire floor of my house filled top to bottom with basically figures that be put together and painted, and I am not feeling that at all. So Iām chatting on the forums one day and from nowhere this guy offers to paint them and put them together in exchange for some memoribilia, a couple case boxes of cards, and my help prepping for tournaments. He became one of my best friends and weirdly we lived like 30 minutes away.
He was a good man
Sir. You have to send me your basementās address . Iāll bring whisky / tequila (whatever you prefer) and we can spend weeks there talking about guns (shooting range required for such discussion)

Iām going to have to try that recipe, @Sneezy! Itās now saved to my phone for making on Thanksgiving weekend!
I just donāt think I relationship has gotten to the point where I can click on this yet.
No, I mostly suck at gaming. I donāt do any online stuff as I like story driven content. But I do like what Iām playing to look good.
Not sure I NEED that rig for WoW but I bet it would be fun
My youngest son who is a White Hat Hacker (what ever that is) walked in while I had these pics up.
Him: Dayyyymmmm

Him: Thatās a serious game system.
Me He said he sux at gaming

Me: Whats a Bit Coin?
Him: Your retirement, or my college debt I bought you 20 of them when they were $5.00 each
Me; What are they worth now?
Him: (Out comes his phone) $8,400 ish

Thatās going to take a mighty Damned big boat to have that big an āaccidentā
One last but " Damn just Damn"
lol, Not a bitcoin miner. Just been building gaming PCās since a kid. I do like to play games and in high quality. I just donāt do any online games. Mostly the main open world RPGās (Fallout series, Mass effect, Dragon Age, GTA5[offline], Just Cause, etc)
I gave up on games after DOOM. My wife did get me a PS2 in 2000 because it came with an external screen and played video on CDās so she could send me video of my boys while I was out and about doing my thing. It came with Navy SEALās , I donāt think I finished the first level. TV, Video and games are just not my gig.
Cheers,

Iāve always done a family show, nothing over-the-line in there
