Well, I have no idea who "Paul Stanley" is, but I do have some black & yellow hand tools with his last name on them.  (And no, @mirkwood, they are not stolen - not by me, anyway.  If they are stolen, the hardware store did it.)

Two close friends, one named Decker and the other Black, started a business that ended up being very successful. Lots of power tool jokes.

Yes, I have some tools with their names on them too.  Them and some Anglo-Saxon dude named DeWalt.  If we keep discussing all these people's tools in my garage, Mirkwood's gonna have enough to get a warrant (and then my doormat, which reads, "COME BACK WITH A WARRANT" won't be nearly so amusing).

Although to be fair, in my glorification of this band, honesty and full disclosure forces me to say that the Scorpions released one of the most unfortunately titled albums of all time, coupled with an album cover photo that can only truthfully be described as child pornography. 

Holy crapola man!   I haven't bought any of their songs or albums, but I have listed to them on the radio several times and liked their songs.

I wasn't aware of the controversy and album cover until you mentioned it, so I regrettably looked it up (on wiki).  That's seriously messed up.

Funny how the band members fall all over themselves saying how ashamed they are about that terrible decision, but oh, by the way, it wasn't their fault, it was marketing's decisions, and if you really look, you'll see the photograph isn't really pornographic at all, because the little girl's mother was there with her, and back then we loved our children, we didn't sleep with them...
