Playing Favorites With Collection

I admit it. I'm a bad philatelist.

I have been ignoring my Germany collection for about six months now.

It's not really my fault though. My U.S. collection was younger and better looking. She was vibrant and exciting. She was willing to do things my Germany collection wasn't.

My Guatemala collection told me I was cheating and that I would eventually get hurt. I didn't listed to her though, and I even put her aside also.

To make a long, embarrassing story short, however, I've asked Germany for forgiveness and I've received it. I'll be loyal and loving and start working on her again immediately. Oh, I won't be able to completely give up U.S. or Guatemala - they just bring too much excitement to my life. But I'll concentrate on Germany because its the right thing to do!

well your in luck then because I've got some its just I dont know what it is you need and im unable to look them up by scott number cause I only have the one but good news I have a scott catalouge cd that I ordered its on its way now just waiting then I will be able to look them up but if you would like to send a picture of what you need I can try it that way I've almost have them memorized by picture and you have been forgiven by Germany she is only a 1 time forgiver so stay on your toes LOL

I sympathise Greg.

I have a tough time being a one Country woman. I hven't looked at my Canadian collection in months. Australia and Poland have consumed what little time I have ( which is none these days.

I divorced Canada. She got too expensive, so I dumped her ten years ago.

I much prefer the British Commonwealth... playing the field. A little Malaya, a little Burma.

I still bump into Miss Canada, but she's not worth my bother.

I have trouble keeping my hands off the hot little Indonesian, though!

Hmmm..maybe I love jumping from country to country..guess my boys would call me a "player",lol!

El Swabbo..go and sin no more ! I think you are pretty normal..when I can not find any Guatemala stuff I fall back on my world wide Scott Internationals to 1969...heres a confession..i have at least as much fun with my used modern Canada stamps..which I soak when people send them to me..i am not collecting or mounting modern United States stamps,i soak them and set them aside....

I have to admit that I've been focussed on my Lincoln collection first, Route 66 precancels second, and my US collection has fallen to the wayside. I have at least 2 years of supplement pages not even in the albums and still need to purchase 2008's pages.

I've also been sending off for pictorial postmarks regularly and designing cachets & local post items for the last 3 months. I just requested 4 more Lincoln postmarks on Saturday and serviced over 40 covers for the Simpsons last week. WHEW!

My Germany keeps trying to overrun the rest of my Europe...

I don't know about anyone else, but I think that's funny!

I thought that was funny also, Greg.

I agree with Swabbie & Stamperdude!

I've been here since March 11 and that's the best joke I've seen yet
