Negative temperature and theromdynamics

Have been conversing with some very sharp types in a science forum.
Turns out that there are things that suck harder than an absolute vacuum, and negative temperatures, infinite temperatures, and a lot of other cute tricks are actually possible. Of course, you have to get inside an atom and mess with electron spins to achieve such things, but apparently, that's child's play to a fizicist...
My head hurts...
