Here's what I had on March 2005:
Here's what I added to my collection thru Jan 2007:
Then here are those I added thru July 2008:
I thought I was done, then I went totally crazy and bought more:
Tomorrow, I'm signing myself into the Henry Ford Clinic!
You other addicts should do the same
Oops...I didn't stay long enough...
Here's what I've added thru July 2009:
Can somebody help me? I've really lost it!
Here's two more...added Feb. 2010...now 60 total!
Oops, I'm still addicted...
Here's what I added thru mid-Dec. 2010.
I think I'm done now.
I'm running out of closet space, floor space and every other nook and crany.
Shucks, I fell off the wagon again...
Here's now what I have thru mid-Nov. 2014
Well I'm back to the Henry Ford Clinic
Wanna buy some? Seven pair have been sold...see my post under Commerce to see what's been sold or just request whatever you see. I might sell em. |

That's... excessive. You're the Imelda Marcos of Heelys.
Where did you get those Pro Series? Import them from Europe or what?
And @ "Henry Ford Clinic" |

damn... Take Seth... Then M.E. ... Add them together... And they have you...
I hate you... I don't know you... And I hate you lol
Impressive collection my friend... Very Impressive... The question is, do you use them? They all look really REALLY clean... Not a scuff on any of the grind plates (looking at every grind model you have) |

Bit of a collector myself, but primarily a collector of Mega/plate models and mega-sized wheels, since I like them best, and as my av suggests the black Pro 9201's are readily available in Europe. . .
but I really wanted the Grey/White/Red 9202 Pro's - where did you get those? |

What does Merlyn mean by "schooled"?
Does he mean that:
What counts is the grade you get in Heelys 101 and you don't get graded for how many different Heelys you wear to school.
There are other subjects besides Heelys 101.
You'll soon move on to another school and have different classes....like "Social Introductions" 101.
Or does he want you to simply "learn" that it's just plain insanity to have more heelys than you can ever possibly wear!
What do you think he means? |

I'm guessing "schooled" is similar to the slang usage of "learned" as in:
"I'll learn you!" (said when you are going to teach someone a lesson)
Some of us seem to like to have alot of pairs of heelys, so I'm guessing that
in this case Merlyn meant that you just taught us all a lesson in how it's really
done - i.e., you "schooled us" (taught us) in how to have the most heelys |

Schooled = owned
Example:
*pretends that ME just pulled off a a hand plant on a 20 ft half pipe*
You schooled that half pipe! |

The Henry Ford Clinic wasn't prepared for my addiction...
And I think I'm beyond prefessional help, now, anyway
But at least it will give ME a new goal....and, ME, you only get to count those that you've bought for yourself. |

That's ok mate, I'm in remission at the mo, so you're welcome to the title.
But most of my pairs I bought for myself. Out of about 40 pairs of Heelys purchased (I seriously can't even be bothered to count any more LOL) only about 3 or 4 pairs were bought specifically for someone else, although I tend to give away spare pairs I ain't using to help friends get into the sport, and I've been given a few new pairs for free for various reasons, so those ones weren't "bought" but are still mine now, and I've sold a few pairs to make some money recently, since I can't heel much what with my injury.
But you've definitely got more diversity than me: I tend to find a kind I like and buy multiple pairs the same, so I have like 3 new unworn pairs of the same color evo's, and 3 new unworn pairs of black rumbles, etc...
But at the mo all my money is tied up replacing stuff that eventually broke down - I've had computer, car, camera, pretty much everything need some serious money spending on it this last few months, so not been able to buy many Heelys. |
