If Raymond Pettibon came out with a line of action figures they might look something like this. I found this creepy dude in with some old toys my wife was cleaning up for baby daughter. I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be a baseball player, but he looks like he just walked off a Black Flag album cover. I think he's going to be my new mascot.

Also elsewhere: From a few days ago, this might be the most damning thing yet about the ridiculously shortsighted and poorly conceived to point of being stupid Buymusic.com. Not only are millions of Mac-based potential customers shut out, but it apparently doesn't really work well for PC users either. Brilliant.
