I started as a chemist, working on cures for diseases and debilitating chronic conditions.
Instead, my research ended up being marketed for food coloring, artificial flavors, and other enhancements for cheap mass-produced foods.
Disgusted, I turned to physics, working on renewable and environmentally-friendly energy generation methods.
To my horror, the technology ended up used to create gaudy and useless toys and gadgets that people would play with for a while, then throw in the trash.
That’s when I gave up, moved to the woods, and bred dogs.
Anyway, that’s my story. So, Mr. Vick, which dogs did you want again?

The Invention
By Jeff Hite
“A Few years ago I had this great idea. I was going to create something so amazing that it would stun the world into shocked silence.”
“So what was it?”
“That is there the problem starts, I don’t remember. It was this really great idea, but all the noise of the world keeps distracting me. And not I can’t remember what it was.”
“So what are you going to do?”
“I have this great invention. Since it is the noise of the world that distracted me in the first place, my new invention will stun them into silence first, see.”
