Spencers?

Good call!

Edmond scientific has some too if you want to order online:

methinks I'm going to have to stop at the local Spencers in the morning

Ebay has them, too. I bought one that is handheld and runs on batteries. Pretty neat.

[stinker]

Pretty much any headshop on the planet should have them.
You could get a nice color coordinated lava lamp to go with it too.

Caution Will Robinson, Caution! Extreme must be taken when placing electronic devices near inert gas discharge lamp: The glass globe will become excruciatingly painfully hot and the high voltage will place a dangerously high static charge on the surface that may interfere with your pace maker and dildo. The radio frequency may interfere with your touchpads, remote mouse and remote keyboards causing scurrilous messages to be sent to the IRS and the Secret Service in you name. Lap top computers will start playing the Disney song It;s a small small world over and over again and no matter what you do it will never stop. Your cell phone will charges will double which is a bad thing, on the bright side it will connect you to the voices in my head. Digital audio players will convert every song into a medley of Bert Kampfert and Tijuana brass songs, not necessarily a bad thing but it will be the tunes nobody ever liked or bought.

Wi Fi devices will emit dangerous discharges of lethal voltages and furthermore will emit subsonic vibrations attracting cats in heat to your address from miles around. Beware Will Robinson, beware, this is the device of the devil and was introduced into our world for the express intention of creating lying two faced moral moron Democrats with a decidedly evil outlook on life in general and towards old homeless bag ladies in particular.

Fortunately my exposure to the infernal device was mercifully brief and had no deleterious effects on me.

The clanging makes it hard to sneak up on people

You have to sneak up on people? Why, what do they do if they see you coming?

Well...they might try to ring the bells!

Uh...okaaay! Back on topic I like the larger ones, a buddy of mine was fooling around with colored lights and home made amplifiers that seperated frequencies and put on a light show around his stereo. When they first came out with the Plasma balls he just had to have one then two and then half his wall was covered with them all around his stereo. You had to shut your eyes when he put on some of his music or it would push you right into an epileptic seizure or a migraine depending on which way you swung. I just got a large black spot in front of my eyeballs, from shock I'm guessing.
