A sling shot that is completely round and made of a very thin, strong rubber, in any color, that is centered just like a Native American drum toy. Tied to a outer, plastic, round circle then, attached to a rubber sling with a plastic handle to hold onto for that added spring. You simply pull back on a rubber handle, attached to the back of the rubber circle center and let go. With the rubber center and the partial rubber handle you have twice the power in slinging objects that you trap in...

As you know already, some children's plush toys and other transformable type toys are very popular since they serve more than one purpose and thusly take up less space and cost less than buying several toys for each specific task.

Hardcourt, clay, grass... now introducing the glow-dome. Basically it's a tennis court 'bubble' where the players compete in total darkness. Visual elements such as ball, net, court-lines, tennis apparel (head bands, shoes, etc..) and racquets will glow in the dark. Everything else is not visible. This will offer players a new 'experience' not unlike a vector-based videogame reminiscent of TRON + the added clustophobic element. At this stage I envisage only player participation, as I do...

Hi. I own an avocado plantation in Alaska. When I need some extra help, for instance for the harvest or repainting a barn, there's a street you can go to hire, um, semi-legal Guatemalan workers. Obviously, this is very convenient when you're caught short-handed. Anyway the other day, my friends and I wanted to get together to play some serious football (hey, fock ball sounds cool!), but only five showed up so we had to go home again.
