It'll revolutionize the camping industry!
Monday, Aug. 02, 2004, 7:56 pm

I spent the better part of this afternoon working on the design of, purchasing of materials for, and construction of my latest invention. Actually, I’m not sure I invented it, per se, but since I’ve never seen one before, I am taking credit for inventing it.

What I am referring to is none other than the WhataCurtain. Whatsa WhataCurtain? Just sit back and listen to my sales pitch:

Tired of stringing up unweildy tarps to get a little privacy when you’re using your sun-shower? Ever wish there was an easy, inexpensive solution to this age-old camper’s dilemma? Well, now there is! Introducing….WhataCurtain!

Ah, if only I had the entrepreneurial spirit, I could sell my idea to Coleman and make a fortune!

Because I trust you to NOT steal my brilliant idea and claim it as your own, I will share a photo of it.

Notice the fine octagonal rod? Yes, that’s the finest PVC available. This revolutionary design can be disassembled and reassembled in just minutes! And, when disassembled, fits easily into a small stuff sack. No longer will you have to suffer the indignity of having all of your naughty bits exposed to passing boaters whenever a gust of wind comes through and lifts the tarp you used to string between two trees for privacy. No, now you have the WhataCurtain! It’s light-weight, goes together quickly, and is a snap to hang – just throw the rope over any tree branch and hoist it up! String up your favorite sun-shower, and you will soon be enjoying a luxurious warm shower. Don’t forget your soap-on-a-roap!

Total production cost, including materials? $12. Asking price for my idea? $12,000,000.00.

Yes, for $12,000,000.00 you can own my invention and mass-market it to the millions of frustrated campers out there. But act fast! An offer this good won’t last long!
