When I started looking for product to fill a display, I never knew where it would lead. One piece after another and before I knew it, I was done. But who was I kidding, I couldnt stop there. I started looking for reasons to "look around" on the internet. I actively started to seek out more. My wife tried an intervention. My kids couldnt understand. I didnt see a problem. I can stop anytime. Idle mumblings of an addict. They told me the first one was free and the second time, it owned you. No truer words were ever spoken. My wife has to help me post this and asked if we can stop this idiocy. I am so weak that I cant even answer with a lie. I need some serious help............to find some more stuff. Special thanks to Dave Shuey and Neal Gerrard for helping enhance my stash.

Kind of like asking your roomates in the asylum if you are crazy.

There is no hope. You must give in and enjoy the ride.

Be glad you didn't get hooked on gas pumps. I have over 100 and still looking. There is no cure. Richard

Youre right Tom. Ive got pumps at home, inside home, at work, at friends homes and in trailers. Signs at work, at home, in home,at friends homes and even on the dash of my truck. I started buying oil cans, something I said I would never do. Globes in boxes, on pumps, on the floor, and on shelves in my house. I cant stand it anymore, I havent bought anything in a week. I cant eat. I cant sleep. Hey Tom, a Tokheim 34 or National A 1 would help?!?!
