unnecessary miscellany



Had a pretty good second-hand day today. These first two pictures are of a record by the "band" Sigue Sigue Sputnik. As near as I can tell is comprised solely of "re-mixes" of other songs. It's from 1986 so I guess maybe this was still a novel enough idea to warrant a whole record. The $8 I spent on it was probably a little excessive but I couldn't possibly have passed it up.

Apparently this "band" is still in existence. Go here to see more.





This next record is from a band that I heard about on 89.3. Which for anyone who doesn't know is the greatest radio station ever.

Awhile back one of the DJ's mentioned this band and how they used to be a pretty cool band and now they were getting back together, and how cool that was. Here is the wiki for them.

I always feel a little dirty when I use Wikipedia as a legitimate source of information, but it's just so damn easy.




Next is a control center for an Amgard secrity system. Some people might say, "Amgard that sound an awful lot like a product that would be sold exclusively by the Amway corporation."



Those people would be correct.



Shhh don't tell anyone.



This battery looks like it is brand new.





Man the 80's were great. You could by a home security system from the privacy of your own home. This must be like agoraphobic porn.
