How does one amass some 120 loose wheels?

It baffles me too. But having just moved and rehung all my wheels, I took the time to catalogue and count them too. 120 wheels! that's about 60 pairs.
Now I know that I bought some wheel sets separate from bikes, probably 15 or 20 sets. So that means 40 pairs of wheels came off of complete bikes that I imported and bad to part out. That means there should be 40 bare frames lying around somewhere. I admit that I have lot of frames
