Invention Nation

There used to be a series on TV where these three guys traveled the countryside and sought out individuals who have invented things to make life easier, easier on the environment, and just all around brilliant design. Every once in awhile, a completely outrageous idea will pop into the lump on my shoulders, for no apparent reason. I thought it would be fun to make parody inventions. There's the inflatable dart board, guaranteed for one throw of the dart. You know the hotdog launchers at sporting events? How about a nachos and cheese launcher? Then there's probably my most difficult, hi tech device. Have you ever watched a professional cake decorator? They're basically artists, and a small amount of them are the creme de la creme, the extremely talented. Then there's folks, like myself, who would never be able to decorate a cake and have it turn out remotely close to looking like a cake. But, these days, everything seems to be run by some truly amazing computer programs. I thought that I could get some computer software made up, along with a special type of printer, that could decorate the cakes and make them perfect. I'm pretty sure laser or ink jet would work fine:) Ink is edible isn't it? There have been thousands of people who have invented things that have ultimately flopped. There have actually been people who spent money on such nonsense. I'm positive I could get a patent, and I'm pretty sure nobody's going to steal my ideas.
