An alarm clock with a propeller that takes off when it is time for you to wake up. The only way to turn the alarm off is to return it to its base. Seems like a great way to ensure you won’t succumb to the seduction of the snooze button and its sleezy 9 minute interlude. I’ve known a couple heavy as a Chevy sleepers who could use a product like this. One of these ripvanwinks had 3 alarm clocks in her room that she would rely upon to make sure she got up for classes and work on time. See the problem here is, what if the person who is buying the alarm clock is on Ambien for insomnia…I’m sure you’ve heard about the bizarre sleep walking like behavior have exhibited while on Ambien, such as driving a car in their sleep! Just like I think the inclination not to mix alcohol and shooting apples off of your loved one’s head is a healthy survival instinct for one’s genes, perhaps Ambien and flying alarm clocks might also be something to think twice about before mixing. Especially if you use the radio to wake instead of the alarm beep sound…I could imagine dreaming a conversation with the deep, luring announcer voice, and then getting up (in my sleep) to stumble after Howard Stern down the hall (which is really out the window) because what he is saying about panties is so enlightening and fresh, and if I miss one bit of it, my life may miss a very important omen.
Moral of the story: fear everything.

The following i an amazing tale of exactly how the human mind solves problems. Torch the problem! We’ve probably had this inclination since the very first sparks landed on our monkey-man-fur and set fire. After that, we knew, that if anything fucked with us, we’d torch it. Please do follow the fire link to some very funny documentation of the heroic story of a man who defeated over 10,000 bees using an escalating barrage of fire. This is totally Beavis, and totally USA!.

Check them out. There website consists of a vocabulary quiz, and for every word you get right, they donate 10 grains of rice to a hungry person. Probably the data will be used to help sell us stuff, but the free rice going to hungry people part makes it worth while to stop by now and again. I just spent about 10 minutes and donated 1100 grains of rice. Maybe it will help…?
