Mexican Jumping Bean

First to recommend

Description

I know you know that Mexican Jumping Beans won't make you leap impossibly high, they don't wear sombreros, and they don't jump any more than a millimeter or so at a time... but they are worth (literally) minutes of entertainment. And then the clicking will make you batty! Which is all part of the fun, of course. Click, click. But don't worry, they don't live forever.

Does anything?

Flying Alarm Clock - Black

3 people recommended this item

Description

This digital Flying alarm clock launches a rotor into the air that flies around the room as the alarm sounds, flying up to 9' in the air, this flying alarm clock will not cease ringing until the rotor is returned to the flying alarm clock base! Gone are the days of silencing your alarm with a tap of the button, you'll have to catch the rotor and put it back on the base and by then chances are you'll be awake.

LED Binary Clock

First to recommend

Description

You probably have to be a total geek to enjoy a binary clock... but I'm guessing you know somebody who could use one (assuming that somebody is not, of course, you).

Talking Barack Obama Bobber

First to recommend

Description

If you must have a bobber, it might as well look like Barack Obama and say "Yes, we can!" Not because that would be cool or hip. But because it would make you think that you could at least once a day. And that might not actually be such a bad idea.

Potato Gun

4 people recommended this item

Description

Once upon a time I wanted a Potato Gun more than any other thing I knew of, and I had one, but I didn't know it was a Potato Gun until much later. After it was broken. When I examined it, after many years, I realized the true purpose of my spud gun. To shoot potato bits. Though I simply was not aware. And then it was too late.

Now? My son has a Potato Gun. And he knows exactly what it is for. And I shall live vicariously through him.

Added bonus? Also shoots apples.

Philadelphia Chickens: Sandra Boynton, Michael Ford

First to recommend

Description

If you have kids (or know someone who has kids), you have to have the Philadelphia Chickens. Fun songs, funny songs, darn hilarious songs and drawings and great gads of goodness. My favorite song? Cows.

Oh, I can't really describe it here. You just have to get it, okay?

Well, have you?

Good all-purpose shirt for when your relatives come by with a computer question. You might want to have one for each day of the week. Also leave this as the message on your answering machine.

Honestly.
