Anyone recall when there was a mania for turning stuff into lamps?
Most of y'all are doubtless too young, but decades ago it was fashionable to take darn near anything and turn it into a lamp.
Then anything that could possibly hold a little dirt would be used as a planter. Flowers were sprouting out of really odd things, such as toasters.
Guess what might be on the horizon as the next "hey! I'll bet we can make a [fill in the blank] out of [fill in the blank]!":
Yes, it's a teddy bear that is really a cell phone. Made in Japan, of course, and recently displayed at a trade show. Apparently the crowd went wild for it, so prepare yourself.
Oh, it's expected to run about $500.

That bear is the same size as the first cell phone. I remember the carrying bag for my dads first cell phone. You could never let the first cell phones go through the wash
Mercy Maud, I'd forgotten all about those humongous cell phones that required almost a suitcase. A satchel, certainly. You're right, that's about the same size as the bearphone.
You wash your cellphone?
You're such a neat freak. :smug:
Um, no, I don't think I'll be investing in the U.S. distributor for that one. :tongue:
