World’s Biggest Alarm Clock

I’m sure each of us have friends who have a hard time getting up in the morning, and even among my peers I’ve heard of many creative ways that people turn to in order to wake up, such as using an MP3 playlist with tracks of silence followed by loud music. However, this video of a home-made alarm clock definitely tops them all. Controlled by a computer and powered by an air compressor, this alarm clock can wake up even the heaviest sleepers among us by vigorously shaking the bed. Apparently this was submitted to a local “World’s Biggest” contest as the “world’s biggest alarm clock.” The way it makes the bed jump reminds of those lowrider cars.

What are other creative ways that you or a heavy sleeping friends employ to wake up?

That is over the top, but funny. I bet one of my peers could sleep through it though.

Problem of Suffering / Pain June 22, 2010
I've been asked a lot by non-Christians concerning the unfairness of God such as why a loving God would allow suffering (cancer, Holocuast, childhood mortality, etc.). I normally respond by saying that Jesus suffered the ultimate pain and unfair punishment by dying in our place on the cross so that we would not have eternal damnation. Are there other re […]
