Unbelievable, this one tops all I think! How did you find this link?

Guitar Player Magazine! HUH? Yeah. I guess money is money, even if it's coming from scammers. What's worse is that Victor Wooten is endorsing these. Sure Woot can afford them but come on. That's highway robbery!

Well, as you can see, I have a lot of time on my hands :lol:. Going stir crazy. It's better but not good yet. I still can't drive. I accidentally put weight on my foot getting out of the car and boy did that feel good! We'll see what the doctor has to say on Tuesday. Thanks for asking.

or this:

When your $.49 plugs just aren't good enough.

Or this - when your $.97 hospital grade receptacles aren't enough:

Or when scrap wood just won't cut it:

Or how about the $15,000 pair of audio interconnects:

Oh...and they were raided recently by federal law enforcement for mislabelling their products "Made in the USA" when they are actually made in Asia...

What a hoot...

Another one of my favorite ones was the Monster Cable telephone cord!!!

$79 for a high-quality telephone cord. Ummm...I don't like listening to my mother-in-law and telemarketers (the only people who know my home phone number) talk anyway...do I need it to be a crystal clear, bandwidth limited, compressed, grating, annoying pain in my a$$?

There are plenty of audiophiles out there who have what's technically referred to as "F---you money." They can afford to blow $40,000 or $50,000 on cables for their audio systems. I don't think there's a one of them who would hear the TARA Labs Zero and not buy it without hesitation. I wonder if anyone's had them installed and then rejected them. I doubt it.

That does it. I've had the wrong hobby all these years. I'm going into high end cables and cable elevators. Apparently I can make more in one sale than I have in a year!
