I voted for a telephone magneto. I have no idea what a telephone magneto is or what it does, but I'm guessing some of its component parts are comprised of magnets, given the name "magneto." And the three red loopy things look like magnets to me. Either that or a clock mechanism. No, telephone magneto. I voted for telephone magneto. I'll stick with that. However, on second thought . . . . .  :-\   ;)   :laugh:

Okay everyone. Take a look at this.

This is a perfect example of what I call a "hit and run" post. She swooped in here and posted a message without providing any pertinent information!

MELISSA!!  >:(

 :laugh:  :laugh:

You won't even tell us what you thought it was? I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself here.  ;)

We're all wondering what you think it is!
