Mr. Ujest and I have “invented” a revolutionary way of watching children without all the hassles of saying, " Now, be nice. don’t punch/hit/wail/whang on your sister/brother." ad nauseum.
It started with wondering if we could use Invisible Fencing on children and dividing up the house in grids, thereby shocking the child for crossing into hostile territory.
Then Mr. Ujest said, " Why not put some kind of magnetic vests on all the kids so that they repell each other and can never get within arms distance."
I would just like you all to know that this man is MINE ALONE. I knew one day he would come up with a genius idea that would enable me to live in the lifestyle of self absorbtion and narcissictic splendor.
I will send a post card to all of you from our summer home in the South of France once *Magna-Sitter * (patent pending, TM’d and shotgun) Look for us on QVC!
Oh! I want two! Child’s size medium in red for the boy and adult medium in black for the girl, please.
Oh, sure it would work for about half an hour. But you’re going to have to make the vests repel thrown objects, too, if you expect me to buy them. If you could include a feature that prevents the kids from seeing or hearing each other at all, that would be ideal.
While you’re at it, can you also make it deliver a little shock (I said little, people - I’m not a monster) to a child who starts getting something out without putting the last thing she was playing with away?
Hell! This is an excellent idea! I want two, size 3T and 4T.
Also! May I add another fine product to your line? How about barriers? Say, a field repelling them from your kitchen doors, so they can’t enter? Or one keeping them from going past the porch? Or into traffic?
This has possibilities. Unless they’re like my kids, who’d realise that they could run as hard as they could at each other and repel. This would set up a whole new game…
sigh
You got one thing right, love. When they act like this, they’re YOUR kids. When they’re sweet and angelic, they’re MY kids. 
Also, another great use for Magna-Sitter is when you drop a box of pins, you can just call Junior over and THWOCK, all the pins are now on his vest.
I’ve often thought about velcro pajamas. The wall paper and carpet would be the one part of velcro and the pj’s would be the other part that makes it stick. Think of it…you would never need a baby sitter again and the kids could get a good work out.
As for keeping kids out of the kitchen…electric shock treatments would never work. Think of Lisa Simpson’s experiment of “Which is smarter…a Hamster or my Brother”.
I’m thinking of putting in a shark and pirana and mad cow infested moat around my kitchen. Later on, after the kids move out and we sell the house, I’ll tell the buyers that it is an indoor coi pond.
this is a bit offtopic, and bit bit on target, but I found it kinda interesting. Everyone knows about the world’s greatest search-engine, Google. One day Iw as going there, and I typed http://www.gogole.com by accident…everyone check that out and tell me why it is what it is…
