[...Dang! I was all ready to post The Relaxative Bar when, after doing my due diligence, it was nearly almost but not quite posted back in 2005 as "BeerLax." Ah well, ah well; sometimes you're the bug, and sometimes you're the windshield 07-10-2013...]
[...Now swinging through the trees like Tarzan with my shiny new fake shoulder, loincloth blowing in the breeze. For the love of all that's holy, DON'T LOOK UP 05-30-2012...]
[...Getting a prosthetic shoulder joint whupped my ass for a while. I'm just now getting back to where I can stand to be on a keyboard for more than brief periods. Woo-Hoo, let the good times roll. 05-01-2011...]

Ideas self-deleted from the Half Bakery so far:
Hormone Based Human Designer Genetic Traits (Have blue eyes next week)
Highway Safety Insult Strips (Slow down speeders or thin the herd)
Plastic Surgery for Ugly Pets (They Might Have Been Cute as Babies, But...) --- This one was already baked so I killed it. Pity...
Two Minute Titanic (Feature Length Film for ADD Sufferers) --- Again, as pointed out by [DrWorm] concept already baked on YouTube. Dang, I had High Hopes for a TeeVee contract here! Shake it off, GROG!
I saw on the news that Japanese scientists created meat from poop. I then put in an idea as "Poop Recipe Book." Seriously, how many people did they envision lining up at that booth at their local county fair? I am teetering on the fence as to whether I'll kill this one myself...

"...There is a beginning. There is a not yet beginning to be a beginning. There is a not yet beginning to be a not yet beginning to be a beginning. There is being. There is nonbeing. There is a not yet beginning to be a nonbeing. There is a not yet beginning to be a not yet beginning to be nonbeing. Suddenly there is nonbeing. But I do not know, when it comes to nonbeing, which is really being and which is nonbeing. Now I have just said something. But I do not know whether what I have said has really said something or whether it hasn't said something..."

Tip-O-The-Bun to Bob-ette for getting me started thinking about windshields. She was wondering about a wiper that would get the entire front window, and not just a part of it, but it had already been baked. However, it led me to thinking about bug guts, which got me thinking about the Rolling Automotive Window Wash, which got me to thinking about neodymium iron boron magnets, which got me to thinking about a man with a plate in his head pinned hopelessly to the headliner of the car. You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

On "beanangel bait & search kit" --- lacking a P.C. gland as I do sometimes leads to interesting reaction. The truth is I really would like to see beanangel back. I think he is brilliant in a [ <fill in the blank> Savant ] sort of way. Since this forum requires entries to be posted in the form of an idea this kit was the closest I could come up with in the moment. I have been toying with the idea of self-deleting it; but I think I won't because the original impulse was purely innocent. What anyone might have read into it was not, and I won't take responsibility for that. All that said, I am OK with placing the idea in the backwaters of the HB, out of mainstream view. The idea has been sent into the ether! Maybe he'll see it and come back... [later edit]: He DID come back! HAHA! Take THAT, ye naysayers!
