Thanks everyone, I just hope I don't freeze up. Or something like that. Shouldn't be too hard. He said he was going to ask simple questions. Like when did I start collecting. 1979 or 1980 is about as close as I can come. What made me start collecting. Well I am not positive, but I think it was my first windmill or some other playset. That when I put it together everything worked to perfection. Of course that goes for everything I have ever put together.

Let us know if there is a link to the station for video or if you can get it on you tube. Sounds exciting.

Sounds very exciting Bill. :D

I'm sure they will be amazed with your collection and I look forward to seeing the final result.

PS: Remember me? I used to live here but I got lost.....if you've heard anything different then I was completely innocent. Honest. I thought the Duvel truck was a present from Staci and decided to help her bring it home for me. Hotwiring the truck was an accident......or at least a fuzzy experience after I opened some of my presents in the back of the truck a little early.......but um, if you've heard nothing then I just got lost ok :D

PPS: How do you edit posts again? It's been a while :-?

TV crew (well just one guy) Just left. I think he was totally impressed. He took about 30 min of video and probibly 200 pic's maybe more. I never really was nervous, but I did have a hard time remembering the Jakks Smurfs name. And a few other names. He said typically after the story go on the air they are placed on the web site after. Of course this story will air Sun night at 10pm CST. So it maybe the next day. I will post a link to the story once it airs. I guess they will put still pics on there too.

Thanks StampySmurf, While I do think it went pretty well. I was a little suprised I wasn't camera shy. Once I got to talking I totally forgot about the camera. If you see me looking around the guy. We had just recieved a severe thunderstorm warning. And it was looking a little bad out. Max was in the back yard the whole time he was here.
