For those people you really can't stand

You know those people that really make your life miserable?My favorite colleague has found something perfect for them. Here is the picture she sent to me...We're thinking of getting one for our boss. And maybe a couple for our non-working co-workers. And maybe a few more, as Christmas gifts.Huuummm... the way we are probably there won't be many left for you folks to buy.

Here is another excellent informative Blog I found:

I'd never heard of the "Invisibility Cloak" until I read his Blog. (see below)

Believe It Or Not ( click on photo for actual video )No need for dressing up in all black when trying to be sneaky. Instead wrap yourself in an invisibility cloak and prance around like fool without being noticed… Well perhaps it hasn’t come that far, but the “invisibily cloak” has now become a reality. The material itself is like a large flexible display and a camera takes what it sees on the opposite side and displays it on the back making it ’see through’. It’s kind of like an invisibility the Preditor uses.The invisible material is made of thousands of tiny beads. Susumu Tachi, who showed off the cloak at an exhibition in San Francisco earlier this month, said he was hopeful of providing a way to provide a view of the outside in windowless rooms.Sources:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3791795.stm http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.08/pwr_invisible_pr.html
