Robotic alarm clock
challenges snoozers


CAMBRIDGE, Mass.: Before you hit the snooze
button a second time on this alarm clock,
you’ll have to hunt it down.

The shag carpet-covered robotic alarm clock
on wheels, called Clocky, rolls away and hides.

The clock is the invention of Gauri Nanda, a
graduate student – and occasional over-
sleeper – who works in the Media Lab at the
Massachusetts Institution of Technology. Nanda
said she wanted Clocky to remind its owners
of a troublesome pet.

Um, yeah. Obviously, I'm back. I've been back for two days, actually. Canada was... amazing. Toronto was gorgeous. Went to Ottowa, Montreal, Quebec, and some other places. East Coast. ...yeah.

Oh! Well, Terry Pratchett writes the Discworld series which includes the Hogfather. I recommend it/him very much! ^_^
