Table For Bedroom Security


From geekology, Designer James McAdam has come up with the Safe Bedside Table, which is a table that comes apart to form a shield and beating stick. Which, um, pretty much every table does if you kick it hard enough. Now I don't know about you, but I am more into guns for bedroom security. Sure I've accidentally shot a few girlfriends in the past, but I just don't sleep as well without the comfort of a gun under the pillow.

I get the baseball bat but what's up with the shield? Is he expecting to be burgled by someone from the Renaissance Faire?

This whole thing seems oxymoronic. If you live in a neighborhood where this is an issue, you won't bother to disguise your weapon as upscale furniture. And what about the stuff on the table? Do you gingerly remove each item while your silverware is being dumped into a pillowcase or do you just let lamp, water glass, etc. fall to the floor with a crash?

I imagine the worst case scenario going like this: you step on a piece of broken glass that you just made, and while you're hopping around on one foot you hop right onto that big peg that's sticking out of the table base. Maybe the thief will be laughing too hard to steal anything.
