They sell a fezed monkey on a spring for about 5 bucks. He’s ceramic, his left hand on his knee and is sitting on his right hand.

Sproing Monkey!
I used to have one; and actually attached it to my dashboard. Damn thing drove me nuts - watching it bobble up and down. So I moved it to the back dashboard area. Then, on a really hot day, the glue melted and the guy slid forward; then it cooled and the glue solidified, with the monkey half on its base, hanging forward.

So I removed it from the spring and shoved it between the dashboard and the windshield; until I finally got a Real Job and put it away.

It's in my Evil Ex's car now, I believe.

And thus ends the Tragically True yet Impossibly Boring Tale of my Sproing Monkey.

p.s. I love Bonny Doon's Framboise - it's called Chaucer I believe and it tastes like Naughty Love. MMmmmmmm!
