30 years ago, my mother bought an Emerson clock radio that
had the god awfullest electronic alarm I've ever heard, it
could wake the neighborhood. I've never seen another one
like it. It seems that a lot of neato products will appear
on the market for a short time and vanish right around the
time you go looking for one. Other products that you never
want, exist in mass quantities and are only wanted by those
crazy Coneheads.

This is a very insensitive remark and the picture is stereoptypical.

The Coneheads in my neighborhood are fine people, not really crazy,
and some have had hair transplants or wear toupees.


I realize they are trying very hard to fit in and can appear to be very
nice on the surface but when your back is turned they will eat all of
your cat litter and juggle your gerbils.
