We have a ceiling fan in the office.

Like the air conditioner, it is always running.

I had thrown a baby shower for a friend. As party favors we gave everyone a tulle wrapped package with some M&Ms and a cute little butterfly shaped mini-slinky. Of course, I made too many of these things. I took them as my snack for quite a while.

So we had a bunch of these slinkies.

They were small enough that having them go down stairs, alone or in pairs was not an option. They were plastic, so no slinkety sound.

But it's very, very cool when you throw one up into the ceiling fan to see how many bounces you could get out of it before it when zinging off into space ... possibly causing minor injury to another employee.
