We don't know the source for this. It was passed on in email and called "Redneck Palm Pilot."

There must be a better technical description. Any ideas?

Prosit,

Portable shopping list and weather indicator? Call it a "Wet List"?

Not only can you write down the important things to remember, ie buy beer, open beer, drink beer, etc, but you can also tell the weather with it.

If the cord is dry ... its sunny
If the cord is wet ... its raining
If the pen is standing straight out from your wrist ... its windy

Is eraseable too. After 6 beers ... assuming you're right handed of course, the list is gone from the condensation. Time to write a new list!

It's the, "Before you have sex check list". :D

God knows we would not want any unexpected events such as running out of beer.

Or maybe the "Goal Setter".

For those of us with lofty goals, this device will keep us on track.

I immediately recognized this insturment as something I have used in my day to day business life for the last 30 years.
I'll note some refinements I've picked up on:

For instance, with us being Rednecks and all, it is very unlikely that we will notice that the info. we entered earlier in the day is being worn off. (Get ready, this is a real shocker)- You were probably born with two of these!! Look around. Usually there is another one close by. You can backup your information on the other unit!
If you happen to notice both units are overloaded or realize there is a danger of losing information find a copy machine, make a copy of the unit and the info. entered on it.
If something is real important write it up on the unit holder (your arm). This is like backing it up on a disc somewhere in Utah as I never wash my arm.
As to the weather indicater: if it is white and cold, it has probably been snowing.

Why did you show the lefthanded version?
As soon as I call my lawyer I'll get back to you.
