I picked up a package from my mailbox this morning before work. Being a retail manager, I was really excited to have something to open after I got off work today. I got home, popped on Die Hard (the best Christmas movie ever, and a tradition to watch) and got to unwrapping.

My Santa got me a UFO Super Flare from my wishlist!

I'm super happy to get something I've been wanting. It's going to go into my side case for use on the side of the road. Hopefully I won't be using it because I'm stuck on the roadside, but rather because I'm helping someone.

I's pretty cool. There's a strong magnet so I can pop it on the back of my bike (like on the license plate) or something metal. It's also ruggedized since it's meant to be thrown on the highway - I imagine it can be run over and keep on ticking!

The cool thing is the bunch of different patterns it can do. Call me a nerd, but I love that stuff.

Hey, there's video!! Actually, I did a video of all the patterns, and pictures of the ones that are solid lights (some of them circle around, some are just a solid light or a number of solid lights.)

Merry Christmas everyone!
