My son Justin bought my Christmas gift today, and has been torturing me with hints about it. The gift is:
- Heavier than a feather, lighter than a bowling ball.
- Bigger than a shoe box, smaller than a refrigerator; can definitely fit Mica in it(all 7 lbs, 12 oz of her).
- Can be used for home or office.
- Asks if you feel lucky.
- May take batteries (takes electricity, but has no cord - would be much bigger if it took electricity).
- Been around since the late 1800's.
- Could be used for decorative purposes.
- Unique.
- Trivial, but cooler for having one - cool factor of 9.9.
- Makes opening noises when you open the box (he made me listen to him open the box).
- Sometimes it makes sounds, sometimes it doesn't.
- Needs more pieces.
- The instructions have four figures.
- It is badass.
- He wants one.
- He may keep mine, and get me something else.(!)
- Makes a thumping noise when you tap on it.
- The surfaces are very clean (which is good because of what it is).
- It has an opening that clicks in place.
- Has five legs for support.
- May be a choking hazard.
- Six things; three that are silent, three that are noisy.
- Has two off/on switches.
- Has #1 Phillips head screws.
- All my friends are going to think it is cool.
- Will be tempted to show it off.
- It has psychedelic colors.
- There is a small tear in the box.
- You have to be careful when preparing this thing to get it to do what it does; in the process of getting it ready, you could break it (according to the instructions).
- No quality control sticker on it.
- Company that made it is based in Ohio, in a city with an ironic name, considering who the giftee is.
- Makes my son and his wife both think about bugs.
- There's a note on it (tells about usage of the product).
- Makes people angry when they go near them (causes aggravation for people).
- Most likely will not cause a seizure.
- Not a home planetarium, but could be if you modified it.
- Cost more than one, but less than $100 US.
- Some parts are clear, some parts are opaque.
- Plastic and metal.
- Ah, aahhh eeehh ehh, hnnnhhhh.(hint from Mica)
If anyone can guess what it is before midnight December 24, 2005, he will send them a present - to first person only. E-mail me with your guess.
