USB Blender Alarm Clock

USB blender alarm clock.

USB BLENDER ALARM CLOCK!

USB Blender alarm clock is a unique blend of eye-pleasing retro-style, high tech functionality, and pureed whimsy!

When the brownies are done it doesn't just go ding - it shreds, dices, liquefies, and plays an assortment of 1970's game-show jingles at the same time. Your home may never be the same!

* Shred and music work only when alarm
* Do not open the cover. Do not eat the balls

Wow! What a great idea!

I should like to point out that, even though they have free worldwide shipping, I do *not* want one for Christmas. At all. No, really.

If I had seen this in Japan, I totally would have gotten it for you :P

Hee hee. Maybe it's a good thing you didn't see it. :)

It slices! It dices! It plays scary music! And it knows where you live!(Ominous thunder)

And it knows where you live!

...It does?

Well, it's obviously in your house :P

And clearly it's already killed before, it got the writer as he was writing "only when alarm"!

Hm. You have a good point sir.

I have a little USB-powered Christmas tree. It's a clear plastic tree with little LED lights in it that change color. It's fab! (I need to get that out -- tis the season!)

Speaking of "the season," I put a holiday photo on my desktop from my trip to Dublin a couple years ago, and started running "Sno" to gently cascade snow down across the scene, in the background behind the windows.

I think I'm set! (Though it's been about 75 degrees every day and feels quite warm and I need to wear some festive holiday clothes to two holiday parties and don't know what to wear. I'm really missing the cold right now.)

You know, Snö sounds pretty spiff. I'm downloading it right now.

I like snow, it's Mandatory Christmas Cheer I can't stand. :)

I could use some 75 degree days. It's below freezing for the millionth day in a row.

I know, I know, when are we coming to visit. We were just invited to dan's cousin's Bat Mitzvah in Italy in April. Dunno if that's happening, since he's got a conference in Italy in July. And and and. *sigh*

My only guess is that their legal team decided some child would come along, pry open the (likely sealed) blender lid, eat the balls, and roll over dead.

Because kids just love opening blenders and eating the random contents within. It's on their list of fun things to do, right behind vacuuming.

I might have.

I once ate an entire stick of butter that way :-P

Also, a bit of catfood, because I thought it was leftover cookie-batter. :-P

Oh, and I had a habit of pressing big red buttons that read "emergency", but that was before I could read.

Did someone pay you to eat the butter?

(Back in college, we dared someone to eat a stick of butter, and put up $10 for the dare. He did eat it, and earned himself the nickname of Butter. At a cost of only $5 to me, it was worth it...)

I'm thinking way before then. I was thinking of when I was the age to pry apart a sealed plastic wrapper and eat the plasticky preserved things inside, not my college days.

When I pried apart a sealed plastic wrapper and ate the plasticky preserved things inside.

...hm.

ROTFL. (This worries Ms. Math.) Oh, my. (Wipes tears.)
