Reverend Doktor Zombie Holocaust gives Fido Two undead thumbs up (the other one fell off, but he glued it back on later). It’s out on DVD folks, check the comedy section.
Also, he is now armed with glowy-tipped telescopic metal magno-wand for Expoing the Patronus of anyone who gives him guff over being the Space Age Zombie King.
light, magnetism, metal, telescopic… one cool and summat useful (for picking up small metal things, anyway) gadget.

It looks like the thing to use to bang on the ceiling if your upstairs neighbor is doing a Riverdance or something.
Fido looks very cool.

naah, it’s not a solid piece of metal. banging it on stuff would bend it and it wouldn’t de-telescope correctly. it IS good for shining light into hard-to-reach nooks and crannies, though.
i have other, stouter implements for ceiling banging, and some nice big speakers and gothabilly albums for when next-door neighbors watch Dreamgirls at full blast.

Ooh, it is summat like the Lazy Stick! Brilliant contraption created by one of my weirdo friends from high school — long pole, hook at one end, blunt at the other, velcro strips and magnets on the length to hold onto small objects… designed so that one could lie in bed in a small room and poke, move, shove, or hold onto almost anything, without moving.

holy shit, they’re a genius. all they need is one infomercial running on those we-don’t-have-enough-shows infomercial timeslots on Scifi or Food Network and they will sell bajillions of them. I’ve seen other Lazy Stick knockoffs in catalogs, mechanical ones with foldable shafts and plastic pincers on the end, ostensibly so the elderly and infirm could safely retrieve things from high shelves, but something told me that most of their customers were quite well but merely too lazy to get off their ass to grab things.
