    Great, now that "If I Had a Hammer" song is going to be stuck in my head all day long - bah!

    Speaking of that, though, this McSweeney's post on Pete Seeger's requests for a hammer is pretty darned funny -and- in keeping with the theme of this quiz ...

    That has to be the creepiest thing I've ever seen. Looks like a medieval torture device! Or a weapon of war. Brr.

    we need a contest where we think of the funniest things these could be used for.

    gotta say, the only one I knew was the first double claw hammer, and only because a teacher of mine collects antique and rare tools. He refers to a certain double claw hammer (the exact one escapes me) as the holy grail of tools, and searches for it to this day.

    This isn't a hammer - it's a comb that these chicks use...
