We are right in the middle of the hot and steamy summer, so it is time to turn our thoughts to scaring the hell out of kids on Halloween. The Ambushing Arachnid is sound activated and goes through a whole routine meant to move pesky children along quickly. When it is activated, it first makes storm sounds including thunder all punctuated by some screaming. Three seconds later it drops almost 5 feet carrying along a web like lattice work that obscures the restraining cord. Ten seconds later the spider retracts and waits for his next mark to arrive. All good fun.

Serving up your favorite drink to guests in these spider themed glasses may lead to them drinking less. That leaves more for you. Even though the spider at the bottom may be very creepy at least its eight legs are a sturdy base. You ever try knocking a spider over?

I do not typically want a spider within sight of me whether it is harmless or not. I may even go so far as to say that I hate a dirty screen more than I hate spiders. But I will have to make an exception for one that attaches to my monitor and can keep my screen clean (even though it does creep me out a bit).
