Well, guys at the beach would have to deal with "shrinkage".
Inventions I'd like to see:
--Negative-calorie potato chips. The more you eat, the more weight you lose. Causing severe diarrhea or vomiting doesn't count. Actually, negative-calorie versions of all foods that taste good, like steaks, burgers, fries, chocolate, ice cream, etc.
--Star Trek Transporters. Who needs gasoline when you don't commute by car?
--a waterproof stick-on decal that functions as a wristwatch. Maybe they'd come in 6-packs like disposable contact lenses.
Ideas I've had that other people have made money on. I can't prove any of these, but I promise I thought of them long before I ever saw them used:
--pagers in restaurants.
--spinning hubcaps.
--a GPS map of a golf course mounted on the cart.
--contact lenses in funny colors, like black/white checkerboard, or cat's eye shaped.
