No, not anorexic women, but model cars! I'm a great enthusiast of model cars. My collection is rather meager at the moment, but I'm building up. I have lots of parts from formerly assembled kits, though.

You took all the fun out of my guessing what they were (although the only one I would have gotten right was the Bel Air). You sure that Mustang is a Shelby? Looks more like a BOSS instead of a Shelby GT350 or GT500, especially the body style that looks more like from the 70s then the 60s.
The Talladega is a Mercury right?

I'm pretty sure its a Shelby. The box says Shelby Mustang on it. It has the cobra in the grille. The Talladega is a Ford, actually. The Talladegas were modified Torinos.
And yes, thats a picture of me with a bishop after my confirmation.

Update! Some new models. The yellow truck is my favourite. The Bronco isn't quite finished, and the silver truck is in the works. Its from a kit almost identical to the yellow truck, only the cab was shortened by the previous owner.

Nice collection... but is it me or did that shelf have Tomb Raider comics on top of the Star Trek stuff?

Heh. Confirmation. I remember at mine, the priest that was there with the bishop was standing right in front of a lighted stature of st. Mary (it was at a shrine where she "appeared") and it looked like he had a halo over his head. everyone who sees it can't help but laugh

1. No, I've never built a Trek model. They're virtually impossible to find in SJ, but it looks like SoundEffect is the proof that there are some in NB somewhere.
2. I couldn't find the hardcover of the second book. I haven't read the third one yet, either. It was such a long time between reading book one and two that I forgot most of what happened.
