Now you see me! Now you don't!


I read today that scientists are actually close to inventing an invisibility cloak. When I read this, so many pros and cons ran through my mind.

For instance, if you don't like the size of your backside and have a first date to go on, you could just tie the cloak around your waist like a sweater and viola'!! Your date couldn't see your backside.

Say you have nothing to wear out, just grab your cloak! No one will see what you are wearing!! Of course, you will look like a floating head and some feet!! LOL

If company was coming over and you didn't have time to do the dishes, just place the cloak over them and you wouldn't have to hide the dirty dishes in the oven anymore.

Of course, with my luck or lack thereof, I would come home from work, throw my keys and purse down with the cloak and never be able to find them again!!

I have enough trouble keeping track of my keys, as is!! Sometimes I wonder if they have grown legs when I wasn't looking and are hanging out with the lost socks that disappear in the dryer!!

I see all sorts of negatives when it comes to those cloaks and less than law abiding citizens. With an invisibility cloak, they could rob a store blind. That would drive up prices for you and I!

Also, I don't think I would want my to have one of those cloaks. He'd be sneaking in and all sorts of food into his room!

Of course, I don't know what I am worried about. I wouldn't be able to afford one of those cloaks. Sheesh, I can hardly afford my electric bill in the summer!

But yes, the mind boggles...and the possibilities are endless!

I saw that on the news too! I wonder how much those things are going to cost? They said it had something to do with the way the light hits it that makes it invisible. Gosh, what are they going to think up next!

May God Bless You in ABUNDANCE

So, a man could give one to his mistress, and when the wife asks "Are you seeing someone?", he can honestly answer "no".

I could REALLY dance like nobody's watching!

NO MORE BAD HAIR DAYS!

Go to the gym without embarrassment!

Shopping bags?? What shopping bags???

I could find out what my friends and family REALLY think about me!

Bad first date??? HEY, NO PROBLEM!!

I love that word... "Boggles". It ranks right up there with "amok".

Well you could always opt in the meantime for one of those lovely fumigation tents! LOL At least no one would go inside to see the mess but everyone outside would think you had bugs. LOL

I sure wish they would work on getting gas and food prices down. Now that I could truly use a lot more than an invisibility cloak!

So you must be one of those "see it to believe" types but I guess in this case it would be closer to not see it to believe it. LOL

ROFLOL!!

Can you imagine seeing (or not) someone driving down the road with their invisibility cloak on? It would be like the car was driving itself! Oh man! That would be so very weird!

Just think I could take the carpool lane...

Officer: Ma'am, this lane is for vehicles with more than one occupant only.

Me: But Officer, there are 4 of us in here. They are all wearing their invisibility cloaks.

Officer: They must remove their cloaks so I can see them.

Me: But Officer it's a bad hair day for Judy, John has a stain on his pants and Margo had absolutely nothing to wear and doesn't want to be arrest for public indecency.

My mind is sure boggled by the possibilities. And the Bible says it's going to get a whole lot worse before He comes back. God bless you Rebekka!
