Finger Tentacles by Archie McPhee

For too long tentacles have been wasted on the bottom of the sea, new Finger Tentacles available from Archie McPhee levels the tentacular playing field to allow we bi-pedal folk to wave our own tentacles in the earthbound breeze.

McPhee’s scientific testing shows these Finger Tentacles are, in fact, funny and our own tests show that they are feline-compatible (see above). We’ve also sighted these digitally-enabled tentacles at Royal-T in L.A. (more on them soon).

It’s important to get your vocabulary right on these matters, note that “tentacles” are a squid thing, not an Octopus thing. More background on that here.

Mikl-em

Actor, nerd, poet, producer, writer mikl-em made his name short so you wouldn't have to. In addition to his blog you can find his writing in "Hi Fructose" magazine and witness him almost life-sized in various plays at The Dark Room Theater in SF's Mission district.

He tends to write about theater, humor, San Francisco culture and history, and stuff that's just plain weird. He thanks Scott for sharing the keys to the Laughing Squid virtual HQ and promises to uphold whatever it is that the mirthful cephalopod would prefer to be uplifted.
