At one time there was on the market a soda can,
or maybe a beer can, that when sat upon a table began to gyrate, tremble and shake. I believe that it was known as "Tornado" or "Earthquake" or something like that. Does anyone know if it is still made... what it's name is... and where I can obtain one..or how to make one? The gafus depended upon an internal weighted r***** band, and required pre-show "twirling" to set the mechanism. Thanks in advance, dabru PS...I feel like a fool typing "r***** band"... Like Duh!...nobody will figure out the word! |

Ah yes, the old Rasputin Band. I thought they were all dead. As I recall, it was very simple to make and that's why you can't find them any more. The w****ts used were washers... I mean w****rs. The Rasputin Band was fastened to hooks that were soldered inside the walls. That's another reason you don't see it anymore... steal cans became aluminum and cheap lightweight aluminum at that.
Never fear. A Dollar Store high tech solution is at hand. It will soon be posted on my site in my "Crafty Shoppe of Little Horrors" and is good for putting into a soda can, a candy box or anything else you want to jump around. It is part of the effect to be called "It's Alive!"

That's right; use me, abuse me and just ignore my b*@?&%$£. If you think of the new magic principles that have come with advancing technology since the years of the old joke store wobbly can, you can figure it out yourselves. There are lots of new ways to make it happen. Happy 4th of July, guys, and up the rebels!
