Obscure MemorabiliaAt home my other half has a broken piece of a piano. Just a single hammer from a broken piano. And yet this twisted bit of wood and metal is a piece from the piano that they flung in the TV series Northern Exposure. We've also got some gardening tools from the first series of Big Brother.
What wierd stuff do you own that has a history?

Two of mine, actually.Both of which are from my very first trip to Texas in 2002.
The first was a badge I was able to con from a guy who was at a software expo in the hotel I was staying at in Austin. I convinced him I was with a guy, "Dave", who I waved at in the crowd and he let me in to the room where they were holding it. He also gave me free candy. Too bad the software was all pretty shit... the company was Indexed Visuals, if anyone knows them.
The second was better. It was a pebble from outside the quasi-military complex that George Bush senior lives in in Houston. I yelled out I thought he was a cunt. I didn't get any happy words from the family I was staying with that day. It was worth it though. If anyone's ever been there or sees it, you'll know just how intimidating it looks.
