I have 4 unopened billy beer cans in my shed they mostly evaporated now and two opened cans. lol. couldn’t drink more then one. I think I was ten when my dad gave them to me. I collected cans as a youngster. I think he took one sip. I took a few more.

I bought a six-pack of Billy Beer, under the 'it'll be worth money someday' proviso.

It has been lost to the annals of time, lo these many years.

But I do got a large can of Foster's Lager with the label printed upside down on my dresser right now.

One day I'll be a GAZILLIONAIRE!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. My mom threw out my comic books AND my baseball/football card.

Sometimes it hard to love your mama.

There was a TV series back in the mid 1980s named, "Amazing Stories". I only remember two episodes, and this is one of them ...

Gather Ye Acorns

Jonathan Quick (Mark Hamil), the bane of his practical parents' existence, takes an ancient tree troll's advice to pack up his treasured comic-book collection and follow his heart. And so, fifty years later..

To my surprise, I found it online. I recommend it as it is a good parallel to your story.

Mine threw out my custom re-curve bow and dozens of hand made hardwood arrows. And still, even Bad Men love them their Mamas.

Not sayin’ nuttin’ but....
