Not sure if this has been posted as I skimmed through the diaries and didn't see it:

whoa

A lifelong music fan, he began amassing the world's largest collection of rock and roll memorabilia: Original lyric sheets. Costumes. Guitars. Particularly fond of another Seattle native, Jimi Hendrix, Allen paid an undisclosed fortune for the Stratocaster the rock star played at Woodstock.

Holy... wow.

Ultimate jealousy.

He owns the Experience Music Museum

in Seattle where a large portion of his collection is on display. He also is a true nerd with a very, very large collection of alien/sci-fi stuff. He built the Sci-Fi museum right next to the Music Experience Museum which is somewhat cool and a little disturbing as well.

The guy is rich

He had an interest in World War Two planes so he bought a few. Geeze.

I keep waiting to read

that Paul Allen combined his interest in WWII and ships and has bought the battleship Missouri out of mothballs! Can you imagine that thing at Cannes?
