In that first picture - bottom row - center, there appear to be cans with scantily clad women on them. Does anybody know what they are? Maybe close up pictures?

ten reasons why this is better than boombox collectiing.

the sweet aromatic scent they give off from that last sip of contents so often left behind
they cannot increase your electrical bill
if you get enough of them you can motar them together and build a house from them
if the better half gets mad and throws one at you in wont leave a mark
if you need to move you wont need a walker after moving them all
you cant add a sense of color to your home without spending much money
if your house is picked up by a ufo in the middle of the night and your collection wall falls on you it wont hurt.
unlike boomboxes that actually do something they do nothing making them static and unable to malfunction this is a much less stressful item to collect.
you could go to the can a hundred times a day or more depending on your collection and not have to see a doctor about it because it would be par for the course.
if you get mad at your better half and throw one at her it wont hurt her .... :w00t:

honestly i like graphic art. i mean can collecting makes sense to me. it might not appeal to everyone and i might not be running out to start my collection but if you want something that costs almost nothing to collect with the potential to really be worth money over time the can is a pretty safe bet.
