That cat does not look pleased . It's not tinfoil, but I thought I'd throw in my favorite use for a paperclip.....you can bend it into a "L" shape and insert the shorter end into the antenna jack on your TV and you get a really cheap antenna that works remarkably well if you are near strong local TV signals. We have done this before when we didn't have an antenna on hand and didn't want to pay for cable. Sometimes you have to fiddle with the wire a little to get better reception, but hey you can't beat the price!
