TV B Gone!

It has the on/off cycle code for every TV produced in recent years. You can shut down FOX wherever you are!

Blessed Silence. And the average IQ in the room will rise several points immediately.

DISCLAIMER: I don't work for them, or for FOX... I just think this is a cool idea!!!

the place you are visiting.

5. If they see you.
I wouldn't hold it out at arm's length and point it at the set!

I always fiddle with my keychain anyway, and were this on it, who'd know the difference?

6. You can buy cheap universal REMOTE CONTROL WATCHES om Ebay
Pick 'em up for less than $10.

I have had loads of fun in bars and such by changing the channel repeatedly with my watch. I always change the channel if I notice. The watches have pretty good range as well.
