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?

historical stuffwell this doesnt really have any historical significance, but i was staying with a host family while in Japan, and they gave me this doll of a girl dressed in a school uniform. and i was like "wow....this sort of stuff isn't reeeally my cuppa tea, but thanks" and after that, they would tell their friends that they bought me this doll and their friends would get this shocked look on their face, the kinda look you would give someone as if to say "wow, i didn't know you were...." and i was all like "oi seriously, can you guys NOT tell people that you gave me this doll. it's kinda making me look overtly homosexual" until i found out a couple of days later that it was one of only 50 made, and i now own one. hence all the shocked looks.
my retirement is going to be very fruitful indeed.
yay japanese school girl dolls!
