MBA Student Creates Glow-In-The-Dark Thong

POSTED: 1:32 pm EST November 29, 2004

HOUSTON -- A Texas MBA student was designing a glow-in-the-dark jogging suit when he got distracted.

Now Beau Carpenter is marketing a neon thong that's so far attracted eager customers at a strip club. The Houston Chronicle reported that Carpenter had no trouble enlisting help in his venture from a chemistry lab manager and electrical engineering student.

The GloThongs have batteries that, when fully charged, illuminate the straps for two hours in various neon colors. Customers can use a wall adapter to charge them up, but car chargers are also available.

They'll be available next month and cost about $50.

Exploding cell phone batteries were bad enough. You just end up looking like Van Gogh then.

Electric butt floss. Fits nicely with the anti-gravitational suction cup bra thingy.

'I said pig,' replied Alice; 'and I wish you wouldn't keep appearing and vanishing so suddenly: you make one quite giddy.'

'All right,' said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

'Well! I've often seen a cat without a grin,' thought Alice; 'but a grin without a cat! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in my life!'

with a breakthrough like this, and Viagra, is there any question that the US is still the global leader in innovation?
