"American Inventor" audition account by a Boing Boing reader

Boing Boing reader and aspiring inventor Mary Wheeler, whose enthusiasm know no bounds, gleefully exclaims:


I did a lengthy blog entry/entries about my lengthy audition experience for American Inventor in San Francisco. I describe (and illustrate!!!) my pitches for Gourmet Lipstick, the Wondue Crock, and the Super Duper Aftermarket Retrofitted Vent Window.

My blog in general is about my so-called great ideas like Scrunchi Undies, Jewelry Quality Birth Control Cases and Air Freshening Skunks. I'd really like to hear from others who auditioned! (especially the people in the bright orange jumpsuits with the poodle — I kind of have a crush on them).
