My mate Fraize, another successful Dell escapee, finally has his 15 minutes of fame.
When I went to Gizmodo this afternoon there was Fraize's salt'n'peppered mug dorking out on screen.
Of course, given how frequently Gizmodo changes, John may not even get his full 15 minutes, and by the time you read this he may well have been pushed way down the page, but he was top dog when I captured the screen below. G33k kr3dz goin out to you Gadget Boy!

Rarrrrrrrrrrr! Gigantour 2006 is coming to the Dodge Theater in Phoenix on September 13th. Its a school night (Wednesday!) but I guess it can't be helped.
The other bad side was that with the cheapest shipping option (where they email you a PDF of the tickets) it still came to $65 for a single ticket

Headlining is Megadeth, but I'll be going to see Opeth and Lamb of God. Hopefully their sets will be close together ... When I went to Sounds of the Underground last year I was on the edge of the moshpit for 6 hours and was totally wasted, so I'm thinking a shorter stint might be a better idea. I know - what can I say - I'm an old fart that likes Death Metal

I got you beat (half to death)
So Rich has a crazy YouTube video of a guy making pretty badass drum and bass using paint cans and drum sticks. For real.
Well, Rich's musical tastes vary from mine a little. For him, and for Fraize who got extra credit for getting thrown out of a Lamb of God concert ... This is a couple of years old, but gives you an idea of what you're missing. Its certainly not the same kind of love-your-fellow-man deal you get at a rave

Check out the image below from CNN's Offbeat Photo Gallery for today and the caption that went with it...

Puppy Love - Anthony James Dallas Jr., 2, of Auburn, Washington, bends over to kiss Stuart, a dachshund belonging to another beachgoer, at the Green River in Auburn on Monday.
So, the "puppy" looking pretty darn scared is one thing.
But more than that, isn't that boy actually peeing into the Green River? At least we now know how it got so green.
