A smallish roundish ball-like device with an opaque outer shell and a switch marked on and off. When the switch is in the "on" position and the required number of batteries are installed this ball would be rolled into the middle of a room and would begin to project random movie snippets from its insides
and onto its outsides. Also, loud echoey sounds would emanate from it such as druid chanting, backwards talking and a voice counting down from ten to one. Once the countdown has reached one, all noises and visuals cease and a "bing" noise is heard signaling that everyone in the room is now completely at your attention.
This would be good as a precursor to speeches, or for teachers to get classes’ undivided attention.

I think it might be dangerous to toss one of these in the current climate. But, apart from that, if you can miniaturize a powerpoint projector into a robust little ball, sounds like fun. |

A smallish, roundish ball that enhances your ability to rape the English language? :) I like it. |

I thought this was going to be "Gattling Grenade," where each piece of shrapnel is fired off in rapid succession. |

I never want to nail down too may of the details, because i dont want anyone getting rich off my ideas. |

People will have to buy me off before I'll let them know what the proper size specifications are. |

Or just scream, "Hey, STUPID!!" Not the most polite way to get attention, but it's guaranteed to get everyone's attention, every time. |

Bob, weren't you the one to come up with the *stun gun*? I sense that you are not entirely comfortable with giving speeches... What is it that you do? |

A short burst of automatic weapons fire works just as well, and if you're on a hard floor you can enjoy the tinkle of the falling cartridge cases in the shocked silence that follows. |

That's how I start my Special Effects lecture, anyway. |

NB freshly fired cartridge cases are HOT. Do not attempt to pick them up as souvenirs until they have cooled, as you WILL burn your fingers. |
