Interactive Childrens Television

My kids watch all kinds of different TV shows where the characters ask the kids questions.  Dora the Explorer is a good example.  They need to make episodes specifically for the iPad where the kids actually have to press the screen in order for the program to progress.  That way Dora doesn't just ask the audience to participate she will expect it.

Restaurant in the Movie Theater

How often have you gone for ice cream or after a movie?  How often have you gone for dinner before a movie?  I think it would be nice to have a really good restaurant in a movie theater.  You could go early and instead of spending your money at someone elses restaurant the movie theater could milk you for more.  And when the movie is over you could go for dessert.

Blue Turf at Our Office Building

We've done this two years in a row.  It's been a blast, great way to show support to our team and a good way to get a little buzz.

The stuff we use is the same stuff they use to paint football fields.

Dragon Scales For Kids

My four year old boy seems to get himself into a lot of scrapes.  The traditional knee/elbow pads seem only to cover a portion of his body.  What he needs is a coat with carbon fiber scales on it.  Basically kid body armor it would protect from scraped elbows, arms, back and front (yes all of those he's scraped recently).  The coat could be light weight and flexible using overlapping scales and it would offer military grade protection for kids.  It would be handy for new bike riders, new motorcycle riders, new skiers, etc.

Product Spotlight: Ratcheting Crescent Wrentch

I can't tell you how many times (mostly under the sink) that I've wished that my adjustable crescent wrench would ratchet.  And behold.  This is the R2 Rapid Rentch.  It adjusts from 0 to 7/8" and will ratchet either way.  I know what I want for Christmas.

DIY Stitches

I went to the urgent care place just recently to get stitches in my finger.  It didn't take long at all and I kicked myself for going because when I was done I felt like I could have just done it myself with butterfly bandages.  What I really needed was a "Do-It-At-Home Stitches Kit".  It would come with sterilized needles and surgeons thread and stick to bite down on.  The same company could also sell the "Do-It-At Home Tattoo Removal Kit" and the "Infected Fingernail Removal Kit".
