Okay, it's time to post the answer to this "What is it" poll!
This crazy looking thing is a .........
......... FLYING ALARM CLOCK!!!!
A flying alarm clock!
This digital alarm clock launches a rotor that flies around the room as the alarm sounds, flying up to 9' in the air, and will not cease ringing until the rotor is returned to the alarm clock base, compelling even the most stubborn sleepers to get out of bed on time. The alarm clock has a continuous snooze function that rings every seven minutes for an entire hour, an easy to read LCD, and a six-button control panel for ease of programming.
Thanks to everyone who played!!!
