A mattress which looks like any other mattress. Press a switch and the central portion sinks down, leaving a person-sized depression. One can now hide under the covers without that tell-tale bump.
Use to surprise unsuspecting loved-ones. Also good for hiding away from intruders or the police.-- -alx, Sep 25 2003 Great, now I can sleep on my stomach in the morning.-- FarmerJohn, Sep 25 2003 Jelly bed.-- skinflaps, Sep 25 2003 FJ, was that a problem before? <grin>-- po, Sep 25 2003 Simple, workable, practical and lets you scare the bejaysus out of people. What more could we want? +-- squeak, Sep 25 2003 Although if the person you are surprising doesn't suspect that they are one of your loved ones, you could get prosecuted.-- squeak, Sep 25 2003 //person-sized depression//
