 <link>http://inventorspot.com/articles/be_first_your_block_freeze_dry_dog_poop_great_idea_24479</link>
 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://is.ahacafe.net/24479&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0 1em 0 2em; padding: 1px;&quot; src=&quot;http://inventorspot.com/files/imagecache/ContentHalfWidth/blog1/wand.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  class=&quot;imagecache imagecache-ContentHalfWidth&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The &lt;b&gt;Doggie Poop Freeze Wand &lt;/b&gt;is also known to some discerning specialists of fecal matter as &lt;b&gt;Patent#US 6883462.&lt;/b&gt; If when you hear the word, wand, you think of fairy godmothers and Tinkerbelle, you are not that far off. There is no pumpkin coach or glass slipper or even a cute prince waiting however; it’s merely a response to the call of nature that befalls all living things. Read on but…don’t buy this yet.</description>

If you are wondering why, don’t ask me, but read on anyway.</description>

Glowing eyes via an LED is hardly another world or even another invention. Read on anyway and ignore that chill that just passed over your right shoulder.</description>

 <title>Giving Birth Via Balloon? Great Idea?</title>

Perhaps the popping when the balloon bursts is apt preparation for water breaking? Don’t ask me, but read on anyway and be…not overwhelmed but just whelmed, as Mel Brooks used to say.</description>

 <title>Do You Need Some Help Kissing?: Great Idea?</title>
 <link>http://inventorspot.com/articles/do_you_need_some_help_kissing_great_idea_24067</link>
 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://is.ahacafe.net/24067&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0 1em 0 2em; padding: 1px;&quot; src=&quot;http://inventorspot.com/files/imagecache/ContentHalfWidth/blog1/kiss.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  class=&quot;imagecache imagecache-ContentHalfWidth&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patent# US 6789799 &lt;/b&gt;is called the &lt;b&gt;Kissing Shield Game and Method of Use Thereof.&lt;/b&gt; One would think that the human race has evolved far enough so that kissing is an acceptable art form, but perhaps it hasn’t. French and other type kisses spread germs and this inventor has the answer for preventing this. Read on but be careful. Germs are lurking, watching and waiting to pounce on unsuspecting lovers everywhere.</description>

This 2004 invention has its medical purposes, but there are those who might prefer to see it in action in the next horror flick about the homicidal robot that practices medicine without a license! Read on, but be careful where you sit!</description>

Presented as an alternative to Viagra, the only stimulation required for this invention to work is your nose. I know, don’t ask, but read on and sort of be informed.</description>

 <title>Praying with the Birds: For The Birds or Great Idea?</title>
 <link>http://inventorspot.com/articles/praying_birds_birds_or_great_idea_24894</link>
 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://is.ahacafe.net/24894&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;right&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0 1em 0 2em; padding: 1px;&quot; src=&quot;http://inventorspot.com/files/imagecache/ContentHalfWidth/blog1/birdfeeder.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  class=&quot;imagecache imagecache-ContentHalfWidth&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The &lt;b&gt;Religious Meditation Apparatus&lt;/b&gt; which is also known as &lt;b&gt;Patent# US 6837185&lt;/b&gt;, provides a means to commune with nature and enhance the experience of prayer. The only question seems to be what the birds get out of it. Read on, but try to avoid wings and feathers for just for a little while.</description>

 <title>Pretend You Own a Camera? Great Idea?</title>

Of course, this type of shooting has far less serious consequences than some others and maybe you should read on anyway. Ready, set, focus and shoot!</description>

 <title>Carry the Family DNA With You Wherever You Go: Great Idea?                                                                      </title>

Why settle for an urn when there are so many other patterns and shapes to choose from and this way you can take it with you wherever you go? It’s better than a Hallmark card when it comes to proving that you “care enough to lug around the very best.” Be prepared, and read on even if you don’t own any urns as of yet.</description>

Think ahead, even though we are nowhere near the holidays, because explosions can and usually do make a difference. Read on, but duck.</description>

 <title>Catch a Mouse Electronically?: Great Idea?</title>

Adult mice warn their children to avoid the cheese fragrance, (which is not even real cheese) as we warn our children about smiling strangers in trench coats! Read on, but remember that revenge is not so sweet if you are on the receiving end.</description>

 <title>Rubberbands, Not Clothes Make The Man: Great Idea?</title>

The recycling of rubberbands is clever and responsibly green, but it would be an odd child indeed who would be drawn to this mummy like creature. But then again, odd is even sometimes these days.</description>

Perhaps someone needs to ask the dolphins how they feel about it? After all, inquiring minds always seek to know.</description>
