I'm Putting an End to it Right Now!

I love making those posters! lol :D

Tutorial

As of late, there has been a resurgence of interest in radio wave deflecting.
The study here has motivated me to redesign the mousetrap for a better lifestyle fit tailored to me.

I've done some impromptu redesign with reinforced lines and interior.
The only caveat I have is that this (like most others) is actually an "Aluminum foil hat" as opposed to a "Tin foil hat".
This may be the factor that is fudging with the results of original testing in the previously linked study.

With that said, I did not skimp with generic or weak foil.
I went with the "Heavy Duty" Reynolds that clearly states "Quality" right on the label.

Also, note that I remembered a previous tip that I found on RFC about these
"Press here to lock ends" tabs that keep the roll from falling out of the box.

I started by looking for a design idea, and decided that one factor that may be being
overlooked is a deflective rim.
I chose this for a model.

Upon inspecting the construction and the labels, I noted that "Water repellent fur blend" may be useful in and of itself.
So I decided to employ the whole unit instead of just using it as a model.
*Disclaimer- if you're a touchy feelie type that would rather not use a real "fur blend", feel free to contact PETA for an alternative*

For everyone else, if you'd care to get one of these for yourself, you have to contact this place in Ft.Pierce, FL.

I started off by lining the interior in thoughts that a DOUBLE layer of "aluminum" might be as useful as real "tin".

I deftly wrapped the foil around the brim (underside and topside) and then sealed in the loose ends by wrapping a strip folded in half (for double thickness) around the brim and over the top.

Noting that some of the more well noted designs have an antenna,
I figured it would be a good idea to create one that should also aid in jamming any signals that need interrupting.
Since there wasn't an available extended area to utilize the antenna, I decided that it would be a good idea to use my existing ponytail, knowing that readjustments in
location would be easier than any permanent attachment to my radio wave deflecting hat. Please be advised that reflective sunglasses will also prevent non-authorized retinal scans.

I hope this step by step instruction will help others, and if it saves even ONE brain from being scrambled or force-fed government propaganda, it was all worth it.

Phishing?

The other night, the husband unit was going through some mail and mumbled something about a warranty expiration and the Dept. of Motor Vehicles. He picked up the phone and started dialing a number and this is the side of the conversation I heard:

“Hi. I’m calling because of the warranty expiration you sent me about the…
What?... No, I’m calling about this expiration card you sent and…
What numbers? … Well which vehicle? I’ve got three that are… Um, no I’m not going to give you all the vehicle ID numbers… Because *you* sent *me* this card and you should be the one to know what it’s about. … I’m not giving you that information. I can give you the customer number on the card you sent, but I’m…fine…fine…the number on the card is [#####]… Which one? It doesn’t say…No, you listen to me, I’m not giving you that information. … Because it’s none of your business. Don’t speak to me that way, I want your supervisor. … … … Hello? Yes. Well, I was fine but now not so much. Listen, you sent me a card with a customer number on it and I’m calling to find out what it’s… don’t worry about whether I’m fine or not… could you please just tell me what this card…no…because my health and welfare are none of your business! What is the matter with you people? You know what? Goodbye!”

I looked at him and said, “what the heck was that all about?”
He said, “oh, we got this card in the mail from the DMV alerting us to an expiration of warranty and something about an extended warranty and I was trying to find out which what they were talking about.
I asked to see the card. It was pretty official looking at first glance, but when I started reading it, it appeared to be just trying to scare you into buying some warranty by making it look like it was some sort of requirement. I said, “how did they answer the phone? An official DMV type greeting or recording?”
Nope…just as I thought. Phishing.
Be safe out there kids. You don’t want to get duped into buying crap you don’t need because it looks like the real deal or because somebody’s telling you a branch of the government says so.

I love photoshop!

People post pics in forums and on sites like Fark.com where there are outrageously funny contests that exploit your mad Photoshop skilz.
Once in awhile, people email me funny pictures that have been shopped.
I have a new favorite that I am compelled to share with you.
I give you:
