Have you ever had to use a hairdrier to mould one of your LP records into an improvised toilet?


when you just can't be bothered to go to the ditch at the bottom of the garden. I'm never sure whether the choice of record should be based on how much you like the music or on the softness of the sleeve.

No but as kids we used to mold bic lighter cities on records we didn't like, most notably Rick's little sister's Bay City Rollers Album. The technique is to use the lighter to heat a small area of the vinyl and then use the base of the lighter to press a form into the face of the record. By varying the heights of the forms and leaving gaps between clusters of these forms we created little urban landscapes out of unwanted records.

When I was a music critic for the L.A. Times, they used to send me free LPs so I could, if they were lucky, do a little write-up for them. I just want to say that my complete John Denver collection came in quite useful for those times I didn't feel like hiking it out to the ditch with shovel in hand. I find that all record sleeves pretty much feel the same when used as tp.

Mine have been molded into the shape of Frisbees. Dogs enjoy this new toy very much.

I think I have a Barry Manilow LP that would work perfectly for that!

Its been a long day dear you need to rest your little tin foil head now.

You're indeed BONKERS! But you could try shooting a frozen liverwurst through your head.

Do you not have plastic bags for this.?
