Where's Waldo simplified. Maybe there's
like ten or twenty people hanging around,
not much going on. For when you get
frustrated after not finding your striped
buddy for a while.
Who hangs out near an erupting volcanoe
with cavemen slugging it out with
dinosaurs anyway?
Waldo? Pah.

[markedfor-deletion] if there's an invention here it's not discernable by me. |
|
|
I like the name, but yeah, not really an invention. |
|
|
We should do it with the Bakery. But instead of trying to find a Waldo, you would have to find a good idea. Sometimes those are harder to find than that striped beatnik. |
|
|
Why not have a great big coffee-table book of Wally (or Waldo if you must) portraiture? I'm thinking big, full page head-and shoulders images of Wally - with no-one else in the background at all. |

|
Nope, I stared at this one, and scanned it carefully, but I just can't see the idea. [-] |
|
|
So do I, I'll vote against the current. |
|
|
I see the invention as being a book where it is easy to find Wally, to make a welcome respite from the normal, well hidden ones. Eminently halfbaked and very much an invention IMHO. |

I'd vote for it, if the Simpsons hadn't already done it in "Find Waldo Yet Again", a book in one of the Treehouse of Horror shows. |

Edit: Actually, in the words of Trey Parker and Matt Stone, "So what dude, the Simpsons have done everything". [+] |
