"   &amp;quot;I had a porn collection that was priceless,&amp;quot; Earlie Johnson told MLive. &amp;quot;It was worth \u2014 to be straight up \u2014 $7,500.&amp;quot; But someone allegedly kicked in the back door of his Muskegon, Michigan, home before he and his fianc\u00E9e got back from work. They stole a few flat-screen TVs, along with his stockpile. Johnson told police that it was &amp;quot;one of the largest porn collections in Michigan.&amp;quot; Johnson owned both contemporary titles and vintage ones dating back to the &amp;#039;70s, when he says he came of age. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been a trendsetter in Muskegon since 1979,&amp;quot; said Johnson, seen here stroking his chin with his left hand and holding a glass of red in his right. &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s when I came into my own. That&amp;#039;s when the girls started liking me and I started liking them.&amp;quot; In 1979, Johnson was nine years old. He&amp;#039;s taken to calling himself the &amp;quot;Hugh Hefner of Muskegon,&amp;quot; which, while the actual Hef collected women who loved him, and it seems Johnson just collected porn, Johnson did own enough of it to be worth stealing \u2014 so maybe his self-given nickname isn&amp;#039;t completely ridiculous. And who can disagree with the next thing he said? &amp;quot;I appreciate all the beautiful women. Ain&amp;#039;t no doubt.&amp;quot;  After Johnson came home and saw that he&amp;#039;d been robbed, he went out and bought a new 3D television with the glasses, burglars and &amp;quot;haters&amp;quot; be damned. He plans to begin rebuilding his collection, grabbing some Blu-Rays and working with &amp;quot;underground people,&amp;quot; too. He said there&amp;#039;s a market, and it&amp;#039;s all above-board. (Johnson also claimed he knows his stolen collection was worth so much because he drove over half an hour south to get it appraised at a CD and videogame trading shop a couple years ago.) So far, there don&amp;#039;t appear there are any suspects in the case. Johnson wouldn&amp;#039;t tell MLive anything about who else was aware of his collection, other than that &amp;quot;a couple people knew.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
