In response to John Mayer’s recent Hodinkee post outlining the five best buys in vintage Rolex (all for under $8,000), here are the five best/worst John Mayer buys on eBay (all for under $8).

2. John Mayer dog tag

You know when you’re checking out the merchandise at your local army surplus, and most of the dog tags only have four or five pictures of John Mayer on them? Well, this one blows them out of the water. For less than a dollar, this one features six-and-a-half pictures of John Mayer. People will see your dog tag and ask, “What rank were you in the John Mayer Army?” And you’ll say, “I don’t wanna talk about it.”

CBC has a new music site, cbcmusic.ca. It just launched this weekend and I’m writing some stuff for it, like this list of rejected jokes from LL Cool J’s monologue, this Lady Gaga and Frank Gehry quiz, this thing about the other guy from 98 Degrees, and this thing about the music of Norway.

Also, if you’re in Canada you can stream 40 genres of music. If you’re not, don’t come crying to me.
