PICO Novelties

Archie McPhee's Monkey Goggles site gives us this feature on PICO Novelties, an LA based boutique and supplier of dime store novelties. I believe I accidentally "loaned" one of these years ago to Ms. Baikinange as a birthday or bat-mitzvah present. She probably will never return it....oh well....

Or purchase the "Hot Nip" - featuring the bodacious, female drunkard.

What in god's name is hitting this schmo in the face?

Creepy Switchplate

The Chicago Tribune has an edifying article about the history of fake vomit from ancient times to the present (including the primitive stone models found in Tutankhamen's tomb that fooled no one--OK, I made that part up). The Cadillac of the genre is shown above, containing helpful hints on the packaging such as "Sprinkle with water to make it look more realistic". And, for the more resourseful, basic recipes for producing a homemade version for personalized holiday gift-giving.
