I'm looking for something music-related to throw on my wall as well.
Four Minute Mile is easily one of my top 5 albums.

My girl respects my hobbies and they're part of why she likes me so much :). She knows I'm proud of them and has never had a problem with keeping them in the living room. Realize, the comic books on the corner shelf are all hers, and there's plenty of her movies, games and LPs mixed in with mine (I guess they are "ours" now :P).

It's also about compromise. She has an entire corner of our spare bedroom devoted entirely to Disney's Beauty and the Beast, as well as shelves and shelves of books and more comics in our main bedroom. We also let each other's poster's share the walls, you might have noticed Audrey Hepburn next to the game and movie shelf which is hers, as well as the Firefly print.

Only the one big-ass CD-i, maybe you are mistaking the Turbo Duo for a CD-i?

Also, thanks on the Get Up Kids poster! I have another signed Matt Pryor one in my hallway, I don't have enough walls!

Yeah, that would be it, my mistake. Would have probably recognized it if I had one myself.

Where do you find your girl? Because the 'geekiest' girl I know has a DS... and Cooking Mama. Yeah. Of course, few people expect it out of me, they all think I'm a redneck, so it shocks a lot of people.

Anyways, awesome collection, nice storage, overall well done.
Systems: Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, N64, Gamecube, Xbox 360

WTB: Boxes for a silver Gamecube System(and a hyperport cover), and a box for an Ice Blue N64 console. Will pay 7.50 for each and shipping.

Ya my wife is a gamer too. She goes with me on local game hunts and pickups, has her own gaming pc, and consoles/handhelds. Makes it easier for sure
