Photo Assignment: My life in one square foot.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words so this just might be my longest post ever!
40+ years on this Earth and what you see there is everything that you need to know about me. What do you see? I'll tell you. A lot of the items have multiple meanings. Take for instance the Snowtroopers in the corner. These represent my love for Star Wars as well as my love of collecting action figures. I love baseball, represented by the beautiful "pearl" of a an Official MLB Baseball. But the Yankees are my favorite team. I also love Star Trek, both old and new as represented by the movies in the corner. But. They also represent my love of movies and collecting movies, especially sci-fi. You will notice they are opposite of Star Wars. I love them both, but I keep them separated so as not to offend fans of either genre.
The iPad and iPod represent my love of technology. The Space Shuttle shows my love of science and outer space. It was also my first dream, to become an astronaut. The iPod also shows my love of music. 11,500+ songs and counting (I was a DJ for 18 years). The PSP also has to do with tech, but also video games (I couldn't fit my Xbox in the picture).
Comic books, another constant in my life. And I love to read. Need I say more?
Mustangs! My favorite car for as long as I can remember. I've owned 5 of them.
The ring... My wife is best thing I've got. And my family is included in that also.
The grey book is my Bible. I'm a very religious man. Been that way my entire life. But it is also a book, and I love reading. Wait, didn't I already say that?
Here are some more square foots of life:
