You might be a stamp collector if...You are more interested in the outer envelope than in the actual contents.

Every horizontal surface of the house is used to sort through 20,000 stamps you just bought on ebay and can't wait to see what you have.

You may be a stamp collector if.......


You if feel like a kid in a candy store when you're at the post office.
If you REALLY enjoy going to the mail box.
If you have dreams about stamps.
If most photo's look like they would make nice stamps.
If any part of your home is the designated "stamp area".
If your designated stamp area is the most prominent part of your home.
If you have a stamp library.
If you have more books about collecting than anything else.
If when you're feeling nostalgic, you're thinking about stamps.
If the only clubs you belong to are stamp clubs.

You may be a stamp collecter if!!

You buy $20.00 worth of a perticular stamp; address 20 evelopes to yourself and mail them to get a certain cancellation so you can share it with your friends. ( Anne of Green Gables stamps mailed from Charlottown Prince Edward Island)

You might be a stamp collector if your granddaughter tells her new friend "Don't touch Grandma's stamps or she'll divorce you!"

All you can think of on the drive home from work is " I wonder if I got any stamps in the mail today."

OK Phil I will change it..

You may be a stamp collector: If your driving home from work,
wondering how many wham bams, I'm going to get on the side of my head from the Mrs and hearing.

You bought more stamps !! You bought more stamps !!
