Jul 24 2008Cassette Skeleton Won't Fit In A Tape Deck

Brian Dettmer is a man. With a vision. A vision, possibly blurry, of a melted cassette tape skeleton. Brian reached for the stars, and while he didn't make it past tall buildings, he did manage to melt a bunch of cassettes into a skeleton. Congratulations Brian, it looks good. I'd love to have one of those propped up in the corner of my rumpus room. But I'd need for it to be animated. You know: wave his arms around, talk a little, that sort of thing. Oh, oh oh -- and have an 8-track brain and Walkman heart! Wow, how do I come up with this stuff? Haha, I don't -- it's all stolen.*
*From your mom's blog. OH SNAP!
Hit the jump for just a skull.
Skeleton made up of melted cassettes is creepily awesome [dvice]
Thanks Pat, now let's make one out of CD's!

Is it appropriate that Motley Crue's 'Shout at the Devil' makes up the mouth? I guess that's better than if it was Yentil's 'Papa can you Hear me?'; or anything from Fiddler on the Roof.

Just me or does anyone else someone should have just taken the poor guy to one side and paid for a hooker?

I remember when 8-tracks were the technology of the day. Boston, Rush, The Outlaws and Kansas were some of my more mild favorites at the time.
Why am I going on about this? Could be a flashback, I don't know for sure....

I hope it comes to life like some tales from the darkside shit and owns his ass, like in anally violating him.
