WANT: Yamaha Tenori-on

This would be a fun new toy (WARNING: long video):

It’s the Yamaha Tenori-on, a $1200 musical instrument that anyone can play. There’s a good review over at Engadget.

…WANT!

1970s vintage Nishiki Olympic bike

I bought this bike off of a guy in Augusta for $50. It’s a vintage Japanese Nishiki bicycle from the late ’70s. I’ve been meaning to post pictures online for a while, and using Picasa made it easier. Here they are:

The bike came with a lot of convenient stuff

The guy gave me a lot of convenient stuff with the bike, like a little pouch with tools and a tire patch kit, a water bottle holder, and a mini pump. It’s in pretty great shape, the only thing I might need to do is get new tires.
