I just wish that I hadn't given my collection away when I turned 13 or
so.  Such a fool...I gave away my Star Wars figures, too, including a
pair(!) of those 
big Snow Walkers.

I love it.  Best part of my job, really.  _Go Away, Big Green Monster!_
is better than Shakespeare.

And, to be honest, it's made me a better gamer as well.  Really: I've
lost my fear of public speaking, I've become a lot more confident, and I
can tell a 
damn good story these days...which is a big help when running an RPG.
