The fact that it's so clunky and wobbly gives "character". Got to love the rub-out procedure......eeek..eeek...eeek... eeek..........

lmao, the rubbing out action is the best thing ever!

Imagine listening to that thing all day? It would drive you nuts.

Great. Thx for posting that.

I am now wondering how it would wake me in the morning.
Maybe it could be programmed to tap you me on the head with that Pen until I wake.
