Got curtain cling? Enjoy more space

ShowerBow Inventor — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 19:15:12 +0000

Finally, a simple solution to clingy curtains! ShowerBow® curves the curtain, not the rod. For more info and to buy it, go here.

Developed by a first-time New York inventor, ShowerBow snaps on in seconds. No tools. Patented space capsule tips out, without lifting the curtain from the tub. It acts as a counterweight to hold the curtain away. This creates more space at elbow and knee level. Then, the flexible bow tips back with just a nudge. So it stays inside, out of sight. Works on all standard curtains and rods (even tension rods). Just be sure that your current rod is properly installed. Also, the space capsule fits between curtain rings on your rod. It is not designed for “Hookless” curtains.

Features
- Easy to install in seconds. No tools. No bolts. No mess.
- Fun to enjoy more space, especially at elbow and knee level.
- Simple to use. Flexible bow slides side-to-side.
- Invisible from outside as space capsule tips back.

The Hold-a-Phone Cell Phone Holder for Emergencies

JAMinnovations — Mon, 05 May 2008 14:49:51 +0000

The following is a recent email from one of my customers: “Jim, I had a very scary experience this morning. I was out running in my neighborhood, on a main street in broad daylight, and some guy loitering on the street CHASED ME! It was hands down one of the most frightening experiences I’ve ever had. I flagged down a car for help which scared him off. The people in the car drove me home and I called the police and filed a report but, by that time, they couldn’t find the man who had chased me. I know I should have my cellphone with me when I run but I don’t usually take it because I didn’t have a good way to carry it. Cathleen P.”

We’re giving a “weigh” ONE TON of [ my pet ]FAT!

mypetfat — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 17:54:49 +0000

Ever since we launched mypetfat back in late 2003 we’ve shipped over 3 TONS of mypetfat to over 15 countries and in doing so, mypetfat has “visually + viscerally” inspired and motivated thousands of people on their weight loss, exercise and wellness journeys.

So in our continuing mission to be part of the solution, we thought we’d rustle up some very smart sponsors that saw the opportunity to join the ONE TON tour to support our efforts to help WIN the “Global Battle of the Bulge“.

Our ONE TON Tour is but one of the many global wellness events we’re producing to inspire, motivate and educate men, women, young adults, teens, children and families about the latest and greatest tips, tricks, tools and “thinking” for weight loss, exercise and wellness.

In late Spring [dates still being decided upon] with our mypetfat “mini” and trailer of 2,000LBS of mypetfat in tow we’ll be making our first ONE TON tour appearances in…

Washington D.C

Philadelphia

Boston

New York City

So by now you’re probably asking just when is it that we’re giving away2,000LBS [ONE TON] of mypetfat.

Well, when we end the first leg of the mypetfat ONE TON Tour in Times Square on Father’s Day, June 15th, with the click of a mouse we’ll be sending out 2,000 emails to randomly chosen contestants from all over the world to let them know that they are the lucky winners of a 1LB mypetfat [along with many other special surprises] to help them with their weight loss, exercise and wellness goals.

Very shortly our ONE TON Tour web site will be live but if you’d like to enter now to be one of the 2,000 [ONE TON] lucky people that will win a FREE 1LB mypetfat all you need to do is send me your email address tojay@mypetfat.com
