More Evidence of Hoarding Behavior

My collection of SPAM cans began as a joke.

I was working on an anti-spam project at work, and some friends bought me a regular can of Spam for my cube.

Things sorta snowballed from there.

My SPAM® collection, as of June 2007:

The three seemingly duplicated Golden Honey Grail cans are actually three variations:

• The empty one handed out at the New York debut of Spamalot
• The full can available only from the factory
• The full one for sale at the Vegas show

And some non-can extras:

No, I don't actually eat them! But since I'm allergic to eating birds, the office joke for a while was that I could take one for the team by popping the top off of a can of Turkey and wolfing it down before being interrogated by the competition (if they broke into our building in some act of physical corporate espionage).

Thanks to my enablers friends who have donated!
