The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

 eeek: Amazon Uk want £20 for it.  Way too much just to confuse a few friends.  But there is this review

Umm...
By Ivan TOP 500 REVIEWER on 1 Sep 2014
I spent ages training mine and it had just about mastered "sit" and "stay" and unfortunately I went on holiday. leaving it with a tin-opener, a pack of batteries and a book on geology.
When I returned home, instead of being greeted by an excited pet rock all eager to play, there was a stony silence.
It had died. I tried CPR and that thing with the two irons that they use on the telly but rigor mortis had already set in.

I wept for days.

I buried it in the garden, in a nice place in the rockery, with a little headstone.

The lads from the Barber Shop sang Rock Of Ages over it and we all sat around eating rock cakes and listening to loud music, its favourite when it was learning to "stay." You'll know exactly what it was.- that's right - Lithuanian folk dances. We all wept and got a bit stoned.

I suppose I'll get another one eventually but I'm not sure if I can go through all that pain again
