My first thought when I read about Graham Barker's unique collection was "That's one weird dude". After I thought about it for awhile I realized that I am fairly weird myself although so far I haven't started a belly button lint collection. He was quite pleased to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records,he explained it all started accidentally one day while he was waiting for his shower to warm up. He decided it would be interesting to see how much lint a person produced and started collecting it on a daily basis. Being a librarian he went the extra mile and also separated the lint by color. The amount produced daily depends on what he wears,with thermal underwear being the leading lint producer. It never goes bad or gets moldy so it is a low maintenance hobby. Now here is the weirdest part of all...he has sold three jars for an undisclosed amount,so in conclusion is he the weird one,or the buyer of the belly button lint??
