January 2007 Archives

An ingenious '70s invention, this; a record designed to deter unwelcome visitors when one is away from home; an LP that simulates a typical couple having a conversation to give the impression that the house is occupied (Home Alone style). The utter mundanity is rather hypnotic after a while, I found.

Bonus marks for the fact that it came with a cunning contraption that attaches to the turntable and causes the record to loop back on itself. And because the bloke sounds vaguely like Lenny Bruce.
