Needless to say this has inspired me to collect Duck Decoys, Duck calls, etc. Other members of the lab have started bringing various items in. My neighbor brought in something his wife found (pictures will be forthcoming) - Devil Duckie (tm) by Accoutrements for Evil (www.accoutrements.com). Beyond the fact that the very item is disturbing (its a little rubber ducky devil if you haven't guessed) - there's a song on the back: ---- Devil Duckie, you're the one, You make bathtime lots of fun, Devil Duckie, I'm awfully dirty today. (woh, woh, bee day!) Devil Duckie, when you float, It's like I'm bathing in a flaming moat! Devil Duckie, you're my very best friend, hooray! (Doo, doo, doo, dee day!) Every day when I Make my way to get clean I find a little fella who's Red and yellow and mean (Rub-a-dub-keen!) Devil Duckie you're so sweell, You guide me on the path to hell, Devil Duckie, I'm awfully dirty - Devil Duckie you're a naughty birdy - Devil Duckie, I'm awfully dirty today. -eric
