Accordion Guy posted a picture he took of a very cool looking black upright bass with a skull for a headstock. I’d never do this to my bass, and I don’t think I’d ever be caught dead playing one that looked like this, but it’s cool anyhow.

If you ever wondered “Where did the time go?”, wheredidthetimego.com is here to help you answer that question.

But this is almost evil: a parent selling her son’s PlayStation 2 on eBay as punishment.

Apparently coffee is more effective when taken in small doses throughout the day. Somehow, that’s just not as satisfying as a good morning buzz when you’re bleary-eyed, and the ensuing crash into oblivion in the early afternoon.

Check out these hilarious washing instructions for Tom Bihn bags. Hint: the French part is what’s interesting. I just get a kick out of the idea of putting a hidden message into a care instruction tag.

I believe Tom Bihn is an American label for laptop and carry-all bags.

Extreme Ironing - it is what it is, I guess.

Check out the scandal of the Victoria’s Secret model with a secret of her own.

This woman has the most unfortunate name I think I’ve ever seen.

Just what the world needs: a Star Trek themed rock band. Oh, did I say ‘needs’? I meant ‘could have gone forever and ever without’!

Accordion Guy points to this “it’s funny ’cause it’s true” post at Bad News Hughes. Be sure to read to the end, because the punch line is priceless.

It terrifies me that my son may have to go through some form of this when he reaches middle school / high school age. And since he has my genes, it’s almost predetermined that there’s some geekiness in there just waiting to come out. Thank God his mom’s cool.

Mercora is a program you can use to build a private community where you can share music amongst your friends. And they claim it’s legal:

“Mercora lets you Webcast music legally and is sensitive to your privacy”

But since they also proclaim (in huge letters):

“Listen To Anyone’s Music!”

I have a hard time believing it.

But hey, it’s cool.

An article at Tom’s Hardware asks “can software replace programmers?” To be honest, as someone that works in the software industry, I’m not shaking in my boots just yet. The company that claims they have developed software that can write software isn’t ready to show it publicly just yet - although you can travel to Munich, Germany if you’d like to try out their technology.

I can’t imagine Microsoft putting so much time and energy into a new development environment like .NET if they had any inkling that something like this was on the horizon.
