I just finished looking through the photos from our holidays and am struck by a common theme. Most of the pics are of my family doing rather odd stuff. Watching oranges levitate. Reenacting the trailer for THE GREY. Exchanging homemade gifts that have no logical purpose.

I love it. Nothing makes you feel like you’re on the team more than flying a badly constructed airplane on Christmas day and sending it directly into a shrub.

Here they come.

First up: the oranges. We have no idea who sent us this levitating device for Christmas, which makes it even better.

Exhibit A : Fruit vs. levitating fruit. There is a pretty obvious winner.

At least we clearly thought so.

PS. It took my brother approximately 20 minutes to make this thing work. If you are even slightly off, the magnet slams the little platform into the table.

PPS. The fruit rotates too.

PPPS. I don’t think they recommend using fruit.
