    I had a post for a perpetual motion ornament appear on my Facebook page so
    did a search for it.

    It comes with a lead but you have to provide your own charger :-)

    I knew someone who made a perpetual motion machine, but he gave up
    trying to confirm that it worked successfully.

    He started the test, but eventually had to give up. I mean, jeez -- it
    was going to take, like, FOREVER to prove it really worked.
