The Ford Model T if it had been designed by a woman.

(relax... joking!! :-p)

Ah....Ronco's first proto-type of the pocket fisherman.

The 50's were not an era known for promoting gender equity and it was particularly sarcastic when it came to a woman's driving skills, as shown here in the first all-female driver's ed class.

No love? Really?

Not even a little

Ha. Thanks! At least one of us is funny!

Recently I came to know about an accident. Two brothers are owning a road roller that they used to rent out. They used drive them selves for the roads contractor. One day one of them left the key in the engine and sleeping bellow the machine. The other bother who just came-in, thought of keeping it at a side unknowingly started the engine and backed it. Horrible it was.

It's so easy, even a woman can operate it!

...and for only 2 payments of $19.95...

Rube Goldberg gives up in his monumental task to reduce the fundamental cause of traffic accidents... "It's simply impossible!" states the irascible inventor.

Showing off Gilbert's rare "adult size" erector set could attract potential playmates.

Risk assessment process

My colleague says I look more confused than the lady in that thing. I'm trying to figure out what that gizmo is.

It is whatever you want it to be.... but if you must know.. here. spoil the fun.

Thanks Chris, I should have figured it out myself, but it will be satisfying to see how long it takes our resident "Le' office engineer supremo", aka. "the clever one" to tell me what it is.

_please please PLEASE PLEASE. Send that thing to Chrysler Corp. Their seat design SUCKS!! Even in our top of the line Dodge Caravan with heated leather seats I cannot drive the thing more than 100 miles without it becoming a real pain in the ass (literally). I have had the same problem with other Dodge products over the past 30 years also. They are not ergonomically inclined.

Would this behaviour qualify for insanity?

A Rube Goldberg ejection seat that belongs in a Ford Edsel?

Have a great sunny day guys!

BTW, the Contractor installing the new 7.56 Kw Solar PV system on our house roof started his work this morning and is at approximately 50% completion by the time they wrapped-up their work in the late afternoon.......sometime Friday afternoon we'll see if the juice flows!!!!

Blummin 'eck, ER! What on earth does that do?

Thanks for the heads up - I forgot this morning, then got meetinged out...

"Be honest honey, do I look fat in this?"

"All singing, all dancing unit". Includes chair.

Driver: Optional Extra.

Goes nowhere fast. Guaranteed against speeding tickets.

Toggle Press converted to stationary car?

driving simulator......

driving stimumator?

Clearly the simulator did not fare so well. Where are the body panels today?

That's a Quasi-dimentional shopping cart

The Congressional Committee on energy independence considered all relevant political and scientific opinions when commissioning the prototype "modified hybrid biofuelcell nanocomposite magnetometric plasmodium drive" vehicle. Speculation is rampant that ownership will have to be subsidized.

First prototype of Tardis.

Jane knew it was a mistake to let her husband "upgrade" the exercise bike.

One of the many items found in the estate auction at Guantanamo Bay!

Introducing the newest line of PPE - Pedal Powered Electric chair!

There! Got 'er all fitted, now how do "I turn 'er on"?

I'm detecting a pattern her.. I mean here.

Now available at your local office supply store, the latest ergonomic office chair with rotary mouse attachment for the secretary of the boss who has everything.

The 1st proto type of Chris288's modular design project.

ha ha ha.... this was my first prototype! I follow the KISS principle.

"Sure it's ugly. Ugly as hell. But that don't make it Art."

yes, but what do you think of the machine?

Little did Sally suspect that, in a mere fifty years, her grandson would buy one on eBay.

you can buy women on e-bay?

I do not know. I have never tried this, myself.

I do know that my XBF's current owner would be happy to assure you that it is possible for women to buy and sell men on eBay.....particularly men who have no aesthetic appreciation whatsoever of the gender which gave them birth....

Kharman

No, but you can on

Craig's list

Just tell her....."Garthh sent me." And you'll get a volume discount.

Have you been peeking in the shower again?

no.....the line was too long.

That's not the only thing

yah......well don't use that magnifying glass in the sun without protection.

Cool.........I didn't realize I had musical talent.

Huffy says "No comment" to allegations suggesting new bike was designed by committee.

All I asked my husband to do was if he could build me some simple lawn furniture......I guess his answer was no he can't!

Perhaps your husband has a difficult time understanding your words when you speak in lower case? Try it again, this time capitalising the important words, and see if this helps.

"I'm not only a client of the exercycle, I'm the president of the company!"

This model has power everything and the AC blows cold.

This is only one of seven that will be available at the next Barrett Jackson auction.

and return to the basics, the Babbage Difference Engine

and their new operating system...... MS MOS (Manual Operating System)

p911

When I was a young girl I believed DOS stood for the words "Disney On Silicon." My father called it that when something didn't work, which was most of the time in his opinion.

My father called it that when something didn't work, which was most of the time

I'm glad your father had good luck with MS, most of us haven't

I was just looking at your GA's for this thread......YOU ARE A MACHINE......thats you in the picture, right?.........

That photo is of my great aunt, Roxanne. I never pose in the nude.

....oh, yah.....well.... your aunts HOT! .................................................doesn't it come with an air conditioner?

"Doesn't she come with an air conditioner," you mean?

I rang* her with your question. She said for me to "Tell your friend that it all depends on one's objectives." I have no idea what she meant, do you? (Aunt Roxy can be somewhat cryptic at times. Sorry! )

Kharman

_{^{* No mean feat when you consider that she lives in an obscure technology museum, it being Sunday and all...}}

"Doesn't she come with an air conditioner," you mean?.

ahhhh...yah......what you said

I rang* her with your question. She said for me to "Tell your friend that it all depends on one's objectives."

My objectives......I thought she looked hot......thats why i asked about air conditiioning....what did she thin.........ohhhhh

You can relax now, phoenix911. Kharman won't be tugging your chain anymore. Kharman is pure fiction. Just check her bio.

already did...who cares.......and looked at it again, after the change ....and again who cares...... other than maybe you Kharman

Good point. Posing in the nude exposes you to the elements

This is what you get when the bean counters take over the company!!

or "Thank you maam for delivering the Jolly Green Giants pretzel bending machine"

Whilst the concept of the fart extracting chair was fine the implementation was far from unobtrusive.
Del

Even though it does not work, you receive carbon credits with each purchase.

I thought the carbon bit is about an active-charcoal cushion on the chair, to separate the combustible gas from the sulfuric odors, and into their respective accumulation-chambers, for later use.

Wasn't this the idea ?

Mind you, ordinary cooking-gas has it's sulfuric odor deterrent already mixed-in.

So, why should we separate the two, when in practical terms they complement each other ?

I simply don't get it.

I simply don't get it.

ya don't get it, huh.............can I sell you some carbon credits?

What is the exchange currency for that?

Unobtainium

What "later use" is there for the mentioned "sulfuric odors" in your contraption ?

Is this the Famed Kris-Del Time machine that we have heard about so many times?

You didn't hear this from me......but.....The Famed Kris/Del time machine sales has been disappointing. so the Kris/Del marketing department is repackaging it and renaming it to the Kris/Del sex change machine. I hear in Sweden their stock is soaring........keep it under your hat.

Verrrrrry Interesting! I think it will probably sell well in San Francisco as well.

After you posted Wallstreet just went from sell to buy on their stock. I hear the SEC is looking into it.

News Flash---- The SEC has just announced an insider trading scandal on the Kris/Del time machine/ sex change machine.

The SEC has stated that all trading on such labeled devices shall cease and desist immediately and furthermore all stocks exchanged will return to their perspective owners as if the trades were never made. Neither Kris (the squirrel) nor Del the Cat have been available for comment...

It appears the marketing department has been arrested on fraud allegations and K/D inventions owners are nowhere to be found...

We will update you when more information is available...

Thanks JB,

Thats was our news reporter on assignment in London

Thou this reporter never said the Kris/Del time machine never worked, I only said the sales didn't make their projections.

you ever have a feeling of Da jae vue'

This just in, after recent news articles about the the Kris/Del sex change machine side effects. Kris/Del have since pulled all units off the market and repackaged them as time machines. Sales are brisk. Their stock again jumped 3 points. The SEC in the confusion and has suspended all investigations on the company.

It all came from a stupid typographical error in the Marketing department... when they tried to sell it as a SEC change machine.

Help Wanted

The Kris/Del Corporation is now hiring.....must have opposing thumbs.

You want me to keep that under my hat?

To paraphrase the old quip "I asked you what time it was, not how to build a watch",

This could be captioned " I asked for directions to the mall, ............."

Well it works! Our prototype vibrating reclining chair! Now all we have to do is get marketing involved and see if they can sell it.
