I'd say my 1098, although I really don't place a ton of value in most possessions. My relationships with my bikes are more like friendships. When someone backed over my TL you'd have thought he smacked my SO.

Lame answer: my car

Unexpected answer: my collection of unopened Lego castle and space sets from the 80s.

I have all the Blacktrons but the "big" set from that series, some sort of base or command post.

My most prized possession is my guitar, even though I haven't really had much time to play with it lately. It's the source of my creativity as music just mellows the whole world out.

Next would be my cell phone and then car.

Ahhh..to be 16 again :)

Lol...it's prized because of how useful they are to me. My phone being how useful it is (video player, messenger, email, pictures, video, mp3 player, gps, internet) and my car because I love cars and part of the joy in life is exploring. My car allows me to have no boundaries and limits while also being my own personal space for thinking. My intangible "assets" are most important to me...my health, my physical fitness, my knowledge, etc. Those are things that I have that money can't buy.

I just realized I don't really have one.

My PC, 37" HDmonitor, fender telecaster, Rebel XTi, 85mm f1.8, Tamron 17-50mm f2.8, 2003 Mazda6i can all be easily replaced and I don't have a STRONG attachment to them either. I have a memory shoebox full of teenage snail mails, pictures and bunch of memorabilia.. I used to value these a LOT but I wouldn't be bummed out if I also lost these now.

Hmmm... I guess it'd have to be the content of my hard drive that has all my work, photography and etc? I don't know.

I guess...yeah. Knowing how and passionately playing an instrument just seems to drown the whole world out. Often I feel too lazy to pick up my guitar and start playing, but when I do, it just feels really relaxed to be able to create and control emotions in an artistic way.

My most prized possession?

I guess that would be what's left of my sanity. Unfortunately, like all things in life that is quickly passing through my fingers to be lost forever ...
