Invisibility!

The other day, Jeff and I found ourselves with some time to kill at the Bass Pro Shop near Des Moines.  For non-campers/non-hunters/only occasional fisher-people like us (don't tell the NRA that Jeff doesn't hunt!), it's a wonderland of mysterious gadgets and weird objects.  There's a whole aisle of bottles of fake deer urine.  There are taxidermied creatures in the rafters.


Always the bargain shopper, I noted that there are great deals on polarized sunglasses (the better to see the fish you're trying to catch or, in my case, the better to see as you drive through glittery snowfields on winter days).  There were also some super markdowns on shorts in my size (it being winter here in Iowa--not that the guy I saw at the bus stop in shorts yesterday got the memo).  But the thing that got us laughing the hardest was the camouflage lingerie.  Giggling like teenagers (come on, we were extremely bored), I snapped a photo.


If invisibility in the bedroom isn't enough for you, you might be interested to know that there's been scientific progress toward invisibility elsewhere--and while it's not quite a Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings elf style invisibility cloak, it does have "exotic electromagnetic properties."  Sexy!
