Okay, I don't get out much shopping. WTF is this? Anyone?

I thought it was a bank maybe.

It's missing the ac adapter (have to hunt through my stash), has an lamp with a color wheel in the bottom along with a tubing leading to a bubbler I think judging by the tiny holes in the base (there's a fill line marked at the top)



Water column light?

It's a sensory aide for spazzes.  :zoinks:

House clean out.

Random scrap, another old swing arm lamp, some random old junk (dual bell phone ringer, lawn spreader, vcr, etc), about 100 old wine corks that I'm asking myself why I saved :flyingbat:...the wino in me thinks they're cool though.

After Christmas curb shopping/delayed trash pick up, today & tomorrow. Fueled up the truck. :thumbup:

Perhaps you were making a bulletin board. :thumbup:

Or a public access paddle boat. :zoinks:

My guess would have been "giant bong". :autism:

Doesn't that also fall under the description "sensory aide for spazzes"?




I was thinking the same line as Gary did, but it is so narrow. I've seen big bubbly light pillars in documentaries, big enough to cuddle, and feel the bubbles too.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Looks like a bong to me too :2thumbsup:  I remember using one half as big that and you had to have someone light it and operate the carb for you :stoned:

Using a giant bong is :arrr:.

Hiding it is also :arrr:.

I love stuff like this and have several from different dates and places with relatives in them.  Back then they listed peoples address and professions and are great for genealogy and looking up local history

  I found my hat.  It was flattened under a panel in the bottom of my bag.  :tard:

Why weren't you wearing it, if the weather is so bad? :P
