Claims to Fame
Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"
What crappy claims to fame can you make?

Reni's Fleece
For those of you who don't know, Reni was the drummer for a band called the Stone Roses. Since they are my all time favourite band, I went to see Reni at the Sheffield Octagon with his new and fairly crap band The Rub. When Reni came on stage he was wearing two coats with a t-shirt underneath. As the gig went on and he got hotter, he began taking off his layers.
After he had finished his set and I had become very drunk, I noticed that he had left his coats hung on the microphone stand. One of my mates suggested I might like to pilfer one. Imagining this to be a good idea I sidled up to the edge of the stage whilst his roadies eyed me suspiciously. Whilst no-one was looking I grabbed one of his coats and scarpered like the wind outside with my new found treasure. It was only then as I was happily whimpering like a wolf in a trap that one of my mates pointed out my mistake. Instead of nicking the £250 Stone Island jacket, I had taken the £7 Matalan fleece he was wearing underneath it.
The fleece is covered in fag burns and bits of Reni's hair. But being the saddo I am I have never washed it and still have it in my wardrobe (hairs included).
I am such a loser. :-(
