Poll question: A different dilemma |
|
Edited on Tue Mar-23-04 03:40 PM by Az
Your house is on fire. You are in a room where you keep your newly purchased painting (cost $1000) and your old childhood comic book collection(value $1000). Which do you save?

1. I'm not a comic book lover, but... |
|
...the collection obviously has great sentimental value and one would feel its loss very deeply.

2. I guess I'm sentimental to excess and feel a great deal |
|
of reverence for my elders.

I've got to get out of that nasty habit of reading and filling my head with thought.

4. Yikes - a toughie, but...can the comics be replaced? |
|
The painting may not be replaceable. But then, are you really attached to it as you are the comics?

7. Had to go with the comics |
|
Though not sure how realistic it is to save them, since the comic collection must be a good 500 pounds or more...
If I have the time to lug back and forth saving boxes of comics, I think I should have a chance to put the painting on one of those boxes or something...
