Night of the Wacko Zombie - 10/01/02 05:21 AM
So I'm reading back posts in one of the high rent forums and I run across this little interchange:
--snip------------------------------------
The FogSignal Players present: Night of the Living Wacko-Zombie...
[Wife] "Dear, I thought you went to the store to buy Hillsboro".
[Husband] "Uh, er, yes - I did go."
[Wife] "Honey - this isn't Hillsboro. Its a set of miniature ceramic thimbles depicting scenes from the Battle of Waterloo."
[Husband] "Oh. Ok. Well, just put them in case number four - next to Biloxi. I'll go gas up the car."
--snip------------------------------------
(names changed to protect the wacky]
So the question is: Are you a Wacko Zombie?
What the heck is he yammering about now...
Do you buy them all? Are you a Collector so dedicated that if Harbour Lights makes a nauticalesque thingie, you'll buy it?
And if you do buy them all - how many are you missing?
I was a Wacko Zombie. (audience: "Hi Tim") Until almost through the 10,000 series. Still plenty nuts but outta display space. Now I limit myself to Great Lakes pieces and those that'll be harder to come by down the road and others that strike my fancy with a 'whap'.
How 'bout you? Are you a Wacko Zombie?
