My parents had a couple of those that would set on the mantle. When the candles are lit those angels fly around quickly. The chiming of the bells are quite nerve racking, though. And, yea, your right. That thing will fall apart at just the slightest breeze.

Not only do I remember that candle powered music maker from Christmas Past (it was annoying then too), but I also remember spending lots of time on the floor in front of a TV like the one on the left side of your picture. . . possible a Sylvania? ???

Plasma? That is SO 3 years ago, didn't you get the memo? Ya' need to throw your plasma TV away and replace it with a LED TV now, but if you haven't yet at this point you might as well wait 'till next week when you'll need to throw the LED TV away and replace it with whatever the new thing is next week...
