I dunno if this is Japanese or what but I could really use some Clocky, the alarm clock with a dorky name. The blurb at sharperimage.com states:

“… runs away and hides to make sure there is no chance you won’t wake up! After you hit the snooze button, Clocky rolls off your nightstand [can jump from 3 ft.] and wheels randomly around the bedroom, looking for a hiding place. After one to 9 minutes (your choice), Clocky’s alarm goes off again — and it won’t turn off until you get out of bed and find him!”

… and smash it with a base ball bat, I’d say.
Back to the drawing board: Clocky 2.0, the alarm clock that flies beyond the reach of your baseball bat (time flies, huh); then goes kamikaze on your ass. Kaboom.
