    This is a tough one for me! If I had to choose just one thing, it would be the Grateful Dead cookie jar given to me by a friend of mine about 7 years ago.

    The criteria I used for defining my most "prized possession" is - the thing I'd most be upset about if it got broken.

    I think my dog Cody.

    Wow.. I'm assuming we are to state an inanimate object here... because my darling M would be my most prized possession.... ok so then that would have to be....my car... or my Ipod. I depend on both everyday.

    My disgustingly large vinyl collection.

    Probably my grandmother's wedding band, that I wear on my right hand. Right up there is my burgandy leather Celtic-embossed day planner. Not only do I think it's beautiful, it's also my supplementary brain!

    If we were talking about antiques / collectables mine would be a complete set of Robertsons enamel badges from 1927 to 2000.

    But, if the house were burning down and i had to grab one thing and run, it would probably be the painting I did of my late dad.

    I can't replace that. But my HUGE CD collection and guitar etc., I can.

    After a series of “life lessons”, simply by the course of life itself, I found myself stuck in another city. Strangely enough, I had no desire to return home. All I wanted to do was get in a car and drive away…
    My dog was with me and nothing else mattered.
    I moved numerous times during these past few years and as I dramatically downsized - and movers broke many well-packed items - one day I realized that no one of my prized possession came out if unsaved…
    There is not one thing in my life at this moment (and for about four years now) that I cannot walk away from.
    I am only surrounded by things I love – but nothing I cannot live without.

    Cheers.

    I would say the few photos that I have with my family, and my photo album with Alec over the years. But Alec and I were just saying the other day, that when we do pass, no one will want it.

    Fun-knee how something seem so important/meaningful to you, is just another inanimate object to others.

    It is a toss up between my wedding ring and my grandmother's bible that has her thoughts jotted down in the margins. She passed away 4 years ago and it is delightful to take a glimpse into her mind.

    My dog.

    And the pearls my nana gave me for my 18th birthday. She passed away last year.

    A memory box my girlfriend made me before she left for Uganda. Full of surprises and notes for each day she's gone.

    The hard copy of the first novel I ever wrote. I could never rewrite it if I lost that. And my first songs too, by the same standards.

    Cheers,

    Okay, since the criteria is an inanimate object, then it wouldn't be my dog - he's my family anyway. So, it would be my jump drive - it contains all my writing.

    My computer. I go nutso when the Internet or any part goes down.

    My most prized possesion used to be my John Travolta Mug but the mug got smashed and John Travolta went a bit strange, I find scientology a bit creepy. So I'm not sure.
    I'm rather fond of my coffee table.

    Jerry Garcia's toilet! ...Oops, I mean... um, er... Uh, which way to the police station?

    Seriously, my wife says our wedding picture. I'm apparently not that romantic; I'd have to say my Binghamton Whalers' game puck.

    My 'magic book of colors'. It is a big journal from Nepal (renewable feed stock, fairly traded, community project, all that jazz). It has rice paper patchwork on the cover and most of my current writing on the inside. I have copies of all the finished poetry in other places but the jots and scribles and lines and pieces that went in to making each one- you can't replace those. -Jn

    Probably all of my Madonna memorabilia as a whole. :)
