Butterfly Bow Tie
with wings that work

Just a piece of ribbon with a full-scale model butterfly on it that flaps its wings through some non-magical process (flexing of the ribbon, solar-power, whatever)

Googlers beware; the common knot on a bow tie is called a "butterfly knot"

The battery-assisted model can be used for cooling.

       I'm not sure [FlyingToaster]. I was never able to talk myself into buying a fish necktie. Still, I'll give you a [+] just because you have moved on from your screen saver gig.

       hmm... while not a fashion-designer, I can't really visualize either of those wearing one; more for the generic artsy type rather than the gay-pianist type.

       I read this right after “Gun Crazy Crime Control”. Perfect timing. Thank you. [+]
