Contrary to popular belief I don't remember everything everyone says here. :laugh:

I do remember talking with you about it on at least one occasion though now that I think about it.
 
Was going to say my Strat, but I haven't taken it out of the case since last May.

So... I don't know. Maybe my monitor or speakers, but I'd dump those at the drop of a dime if I had money to get something bigger/better.
 
Irreplaceable - my four cockatiels

Somewhat replaceable - laptop/external hard drive... so many personal docs, vids, pics, etc

Replaceable - Star Wars Miniatures collection

 
-If I were to include my photography stored on computer HD, backup HP, offsite DVD's and some online, that.
-I guess the single most prized possession would be my car. But it's insured. But that would be a total hassle to file a claim, rent a car, find a car in the same quality as my depreciated value (not likely).
-Or maybe my photo equipment, but it's a collection of things.
 
my truck, which is all taken apart now and probably done for after 40,000 beautiful miles together (160k total)
 
My monitor, it's fucking awesome.

Actually, I wouldn't say I prize anything more than my health. Even with asthma and allergies, it fucking rocks not being crippled or mentally disabled.
 
Hard to narrow it down to a single item, but here are a few:

External hard drive with pictures, school assignments
Box with racing numbers, ribbons, medals from various cross country and road races
Accordion folder with assorted ticket stubs, brochures and memorabilia from traveling
Photo albums (yea I actually still have a few 😛)
Forest scene my grandmother painted (hangs in my den)

I have way too much other crap in my place - books, games, movies, clothes, stereo, computer, kitchenware. No matter how much I get rid of, there's always tons of it.

But I'm finding that I care less about my material stuff than I used to - it doesn't define me. Sure, if it breaks I'll be a bit disappointed, but I'll move on.
 
Hard to say. I don't feel any special attachment to any of material things I have at home.
Probably my grandfathers watch, and not because it brings memories - he died before I was born, but because it is worth some decent amount of money.

I would say - photos that I took and keep on taking. As I grow old, they keep my memories.
 
My portable hard drive, it has alot of my past memories on it...

I don't keep a log of my journal, just chat logs and emails...
