Digital Suspension Device

We're using semantic obfuscation to crowd this plastic finger hook into a scientific category. It really doesn't cut it as science, but sure has been a popular novelty in our stores. An embedded 1/2" long wood screw will secure this flesh-colored finger to a rail, the side of a desk, a wall, or the back of a door. It then functions as an amusing hook for towels, robes, coats, tools, or attention. In fact the silly things seem to be beckoning, but we were afraid to call them "come hither hookers" for fear of misinterpretation. When installed, the fingernail, which might look a bit better with a little bright red polish, stands 2" from the mounting surface. Sold in fours because this importer doesn't deal in thumbs.

Any Nuts On The Tree?

To be honest, we don't see this painted-pressboard family tree on any table that belongs to OUR family. It's 15" wide x almost 15" tall, painted a blatant green and brown, and is just too sappy. But the (10) 2-1/2" x 2" oval frames scattered on it are easy to access from the back and have lightweight plastic protecting any pictures they hold. We think the tree is great for kids' bedrooms and could work well in classrooms -- and if it's a gift from a kid, complete with family pictures, who's gonna complain about a little sap on the furniture?

Multipurpose Extender

This pink-painted metal pole, approx 3/4" dia, extends and locks anywhere from 28-3/4" to 49" long. One end has a tip that can be hung on a hook, the other has a U-shaped plastic prong, with notches on the ends and a small vestigial hook facing backwards. No doubt perfect for its intended use, which is, like Atlantis and Judge Crater, forever lost. Maybe held a mop head. Maybe put stuffed monkeys on high shelves and retrieved them. Good for catching snakes, getting hangers down from overhead, mini-shuffleboard games, or sundry other things. Unlimited opportunities for only a buck!

The Auto-Nagger

You say you often need a little extra reminding, or know someone who does?

Can also be set to activate a 5-second night light, and comes with a base, a magnet on the back, and (4) likely dead "AAA" batteries.
