Here are Dale's previous 4:

• I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. I just can't put it down.

• I did a theatrical performance about puns. It was a play on words.

• I didn't like my beard at first. Then it grew on me.

• Did you hear about the cross-eyed teacher who lost her job because she couldn't control her pupils?

• When you get a bladder infection, urine trouble.

• Broken pencils are pointless.

• What do you call a dinosaur with an extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus.

I dropped out of communism class because of lousy Marx.

• All the toilets in New York's police stations have been stolen. The police have nothing to go on.

• I got a job at a bakery because I kneaded dough.

• Velcro - what a rip off!

• Don’t worry about old age; it doesn’t last!

Unlike the typical model car show, the Supershow drew a much wider variety of collectors, and that was part of the fun. I went in knowing I probably would not see many scale model cars, but I also knew I would enjoy seeing the many different things people are passionate about collecting.

The show floor was packed with all kinds of treasures. There were Barbies, Lego sets, dolls, vinyl records, posters, radios, tinplate toys, Star Wars action figures, board games, and much more. It was fun to walk through the many stalls and take in all the different ways people enjoy the hunt for something they do not yet have.

What stood out most was the diversity of the crowd. There were kids, teens, couples, and collectors in all kinds of memorable outfits, including a mother-daughter pair dressed like the dolls they were collecting. It was a very different atmosphere from the Chicago model show, where the crowd tends to be made up of very serious, intense older guys.

I also had the chance to meet up with Christian Braun, who had several tables filled with diecast and white metal models. Christian will be featured in an upcoming Off the Shelf segment, but on this visit, I picked up a Dugu Duesenberg that caught my eye. He also gave me an M2 hobbydb logo van.

All in all, it was a fun couple of hours spent appreciating the collecting hobby and seeing what other people enjoy.
