So last Saturday my sister, Courtney, and my brother, Kyle, and I were browsing around Barnes and Noble when suddenly my sister froze and gasped in excitement. She had found an entire collection of Barbie coloring books, sticker books, and chapter books. Just to remind you, my sister is 19, not 4. So as we were standing there looking at Barbie and Ken doll books, I read the sign that is posted above the display. The sign was an announcement that Jef Beck, the owner of the largest Ken doll collection in the United States, would be at Barnes and Noble next Sunday. I'm not sure if I found this amusing or just down right sad. I mean really? This man surely can't be married. He's like the crazy cat lady only with Ken dolls. I wonder if he talks to them. Wouldn't surprise me. This man needs some serious help. I mean sure, when I was little, my brother played Barbies with my sister and I some times. But even when he was like 5, he was still embarrassed to be playing with dolls. I only had maybe 2 Ken dolls out of my collection of 50+ Barbies, (one of them being Aladdin.) I can't wait for Sunday to come now because I will be the first one in line for Mr. Jef Beck's autograph.
