He didn't take it far enough or market it correctly! Wearing a magnet on your head not only promotes good mental health but it also keeps out the evil rays the aliens (hiding on the dark side of the moon) keep bombarding us with.

Ooh, you're right, Expat. Should we tell Lyle Zapato (<http://zapatopi.net/afdb>)?

God NO!!!!! The more targets the aliens have the better our chance of surviving.

I went to school with a guy we called Magnet Head. We called him that because ANYTHING that became airborne within a 2 block radius of this kid was guaranteed to hit him in the head! You could throw a football away from him and it would curve in a wide arc much like that of a boomerang and WAP! right in the head. We talked for a while about some sort of helmet. But now, I realize that this hat would have been perfect. If we could just get the poles set right it would have hovered just above his head! :lol: :coolsmile:

I now use lead foil in combination with my tin foil when making my hats to block the "gubment" satellites and aliens from probing my brain.

A few days ago on WU there was the post where the guy had large holes in his cheeks and other MODS. Combine this with gusty wind and a cowboy hat.

To start, you have 4 magnets implanted firmly arround the hat line of your skull.
Second, while making sure the polarity is correct, you attach magnets to the hat.

You guys are right, if this had been marketed to the conspiracy nuts it would have sold like hotcakes.
