This is a Black Hole Wharp Portal. Kind of like a Time Machine, you set the slide distance from the post for the portal entrance and wait for the magic to happen. The project was scrapped by the US government since they could not get humans through the little hole and the test mice were not returning back from the future to tell us what was going to happen. A single gas charge reciept came back over 10 years ago through the portal from a gas station with $ 10.99 a gallon gas from July of 2012 stamped on it. That is when the scrubbed the Warp Portal project because the Government was convinced gas could never go that high.

Nonsense. It's a chrono-synclastic-infundibulum, sort of a temporal Klein bottle. Sheesh.:confused:

Naw, everybody knows it a device that they use in circuses for checking the girth of elephants penises before they let them mate ( with other elephants, that is) .

O.K Bill I'll put you out of your misery, joking aside it's a bracket that attaches to a studio strobe lighting stand to allow you to fit a soft box or a beauty light to the flash head.
