From the “That Which Does Not Kill My Career Can Probably Fatten My Paycheck A Little More” department: Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine is auctioning off the wrist splints he wore after suffering a compressed radial nerve in his left arm six years ago, an injury that many thought would end his career. (Mustaine was among them; he broke up Megadeth that April, only to reform the band two years later.) Bidding is at $300 now, but there are still five days left in the auction! And they’re even autographed! In black Sharpie! After the jump, Mustaine demonstrates the gear.

Dave Mustaine will not stand for the funky fretwork of Mike Huckabee. In fact, when asked to critique Huckabee’s bass playing for Good Morning America, the worm-infested Megadeth frontman called the art of the bass “one step up from playing the kazoo,” which is another way of asking for a late night ass-whupping from the ghost of Charles Mingus. (Or at least a wedgie from Bootsy.) In addition to grooming 2008’s musically minded prez hopefuls Berry Gordy-style, Dave sez he would also be a valuable ally on the campaign trail thanks to an innate ability to reach adolescents into skulls and blood and blowin’ up stuff.
In addition to “wuss,” “coffee magnate,” “text-message-ignorer,” and “possible third-place finisher in our Worst Album Cover Of The Year tournament,” Dave Mustaine can now put “petri dish for disease” on his resume: “Mustaine says he went to see a health practitioner who did an analysis of his body.

In order to harass Dave, I had to sign up Idolator with SayNow, a service that, once you give them your phone number, a kidney, and your SSN, allows you to call/text message popular singers like Taylor Hicks and the guy from Papa Roach. Well, this weekend I finally heard back from “Dave.” Several times in fact. His theories on life, the universe, and everything are after the jump:
