My invention would be...

This summer I have decided we need a new invention.
It wouldn't really be much.
Actually two versions...

A towel that talks? or a towel with legs!!

We came home from our trip away with what I think was nearly every towel in the kids bathroom dirty.. .let me rephrase that... WET! They went swimming plenty, and I think that
they used every towel possible, instead of hanging them to dry, and then reusing them.

SO.. I suggest that towels be made with legs, so that they can take themselves to the clothesline, or else to the Laundry basket.. OR.. that they be talking towels, so that when they are dropped on the floor by unsuspecting children, they shout out "PICK ME UP" or "HANG ME UP"! Wouldn't that save ME from doing so??

Or? if they made them both talking and walking? Then they could follow the children around shouting at them UNTIL they picked them up!! Sound good??

That's brilliant! I need mine to say "No, I don't belong in a tub full of water - Put Me Down!"

Excellent idea! But I think that it would probably scare my girls! They would never want to use a towel again...I'm not sure if that's good or bad!

Just wait until they're living on their own. My youngest brother says he can't distinguish between his dirty and clean clothes on the floor.

I agree with my late friend; a real invention would be a remote control that brings you your remote control(s).

(BTW, we should be in PHX in mid- to late August for my brother's retirement from the Air Force. Drop me a line at pault3331 {at} gmail {dot} com.)

I think towels should walk, talk and SNAP! That way they can chase after the kids yelling "Hang me up to dry! I'm drowning here! And then SNAP them in the butt for emphasis.

Get those towels patented. Every mother in America would buy a dozen.
