    Hey i like this idea. Then If they are trying to look in the wrong direction you know. Sheesh now a days you just never know. I have a cousin who has a problem with that. I should get her one. Then she will know what guys are talking to her and what guys are talking to what she has. :) ( hmm unless of course that is what she liked about it. i guess i better write her and ask.)
