For all of you that wear tin foil hats this may be a better way to protect yourself.

You may want to reconsider tin foil, at least for hats:

Personally, I prefer steel wool, but it can get pretty scratchy in the summer.

20-something years back, I was working at the Honeywell Informations Systems plant in Phoenix. We had a power supply technician who started lining his work bench area with tin foil. Apparently he was trying to protect himself from aliens or something and not the illegal kind from across the border.
One day his co-workers thought it would be funny to 'zap' him each time they walked by them. They'd point their finger at him and say "Zzzzzzt!". I guess this was pretty hilarous. (I worked in a different part of the building, so I missed this one. My buddy worked down there and told me what happened.)
Anyway, bu the end of the day, they had to cart the guy out to the Funny Farm. His coworkers literally drove him over the edge. They had to extract him from under his workbench, where he was cowering and trying to hide from the invaders.
Sad, yet funny.

This is ridiculous, I have never suffered from Alien abductions.
They were actually quite enjoyable.:p

I am personally unaffected by this and any other alien interference. After all, I am Godzilla. I have kicked alien butt more than once, protecting my humans so that I come back in the next film and kill them all myself. Geesh.

I was abducted by aliens twice. They dumped me back on earth and added me to their do not abduct list / no fly list.
The alien's had disguised themselve's as Ned Beatty. I attempted to go Deliverence on em. Man! that flying saucer came back to earth in a split second.
Then the alien's messed up. They abducted me a second time. They did not check their list. This time they were on a mission to breed with an earthling. Now they were all dressed like Brittany Spears. This time I resisted. I screamed bloody murder. Again I was back to Earth in a split second.
So be aware. The alien's stated that they are going to dress like Rosie O'Donnel and attempt to breed with an earthling. I wished them luck. :laugh :sick :bolt

You all should meet the folks living in emigrant, MT. They all suffer from some sort of tin foil hat complex. I'll leave it at that. some google searching might give a deeper explanation.

should I wear a full face foil hat, open face foil hat, or just a beanie foil hat?

As I learned how weird Austin really was in the Eighties, I met the Tin Foil Lady.
I was running a two man service truck for the electric utility when I received a call about radio waves and a woman getting shocked. Upon arrival, she opened the door in a foil blanket...then went in and sat down in her living room and put on her big hat and covered her legs with the blanket. She claimed she was getting burned by our streetlight and the wires running alongside her house. We checked all the wires and the meter,then the streetlight...NOTHING...I told her I could find nothing out of the ordinary and was on my way...we were laughing our tails off the next day when an senior lineman heard us and stepped in. He had been to the same house several times over the years...for years:bolt We occasionally heard that address called out to the service guys and roared when it was "the new guy" headed over there. We actually sent our EMF specialist engineers by to try and convince her it was not the electrical fields...they were not happy with us:laugh
Dang that was winded...it was the aliens...

I've laughed myself silly over some of the things I've seen local tin foil hat wearers do, or claim, but then the good (boring) side takes over and I feel sorry for them. The way I see it - Aliens really are messing with them, OR they're completely crazy- and I wouldn't want either one!
We've got one lady that actually made an appearance today at work. She usually comes around a few times a year, asks insane questions about whatever cars are in the showroom. Today, there was an element, and she wanted to know if its boxy shape would help deflect emf "rays". n00b salesperson didn't know who she was doing his best to answer her seriously while others were on the verge of wetting their pants. She's harmless, and its entertaining, but in the end I feel bad for her.
We need a new smily- or maybe two. one wearing a tin foil hat- and maybe one in a flying saucer???

I have been wearing foil hats for years until my wife sent me to a shrink thinking something was wrong with me, Once at the shrink he asked me why I wore the foil helmets? to which I responded it was to block telepathic brainwaves from controlling me. He told me it was ridiculus and asked me wher I learned that, To which I responded my dog told me.....
He now drives a a big mercedes and both the dog and I see him 3 times a week!:dunno
On the scary side the guy is a tech writer for the aeronautical industry yikes!

For full protection from alien rays , in addition to the foil helmets, aluminum foil insoles for the shoes are a very important addition to ones protection ensemble.
Unfortunately there is a great debate among the affectionadoes as to if the shiniest side should be away or towards the sole of the foot. A heavier gauge of foil is desirable as it tends to resist bunching up in the shoe diminishing the protection as well as the foot room in the shoe.
A large body of information on this subject as well as other similar topics can be gleaned from the night shift dispatchers on most any Police or fire Department.

One wonders what people did for protection before aluminum foil was invented.
It is notable that no one worried about aliens until rockets (and thus the realistic possibility of space travel) were popularized between the World Wars.

Oh no! I am not that kind of boy. I would be afraid of Brittany. She has more miles than my old R 75/5. In fact I would give her the North American Tour.
