I was hit with the BEANIE craze before Y2K came along. I collected all the bears and dogs (of course!) and a few other ones that I felt were soooooo cute. When TY (the makers of beanies) announced they were no longer going to make beanies and retired all the current ones I was one of the ones who JUST HAD TO HAVE the bear named "THE END". Then after the Y2K stuff didn't hit and they announced they were going to start making them again, I got disgusted and said "Make all you want but you don't get another penny from me."

Anyway, I have over 125 beanie's and now I look back and think how crazy I was. Courage sounds great but I will keep my addictive nature away. If anyone wants some beanies that are just collecting dust in my house, please let me know! LOL
