What a great idea! Why dirty your knife when you can butter your toast with the butterstick instead?

Besides toast, it is useful for buttering corn on the cob and crumpets; less useful unfortunately, for buttering rice and peas.

I think chindogu ideas are great, simply great. We should support them. Too bad we do not see many of them turned into real-use products we can use every day.

For those who don't know, chindogu is a Japanese word. Dogu means tool and Chin means weird. Weird Tools!

If you post an interesting chindogu idea I haven't heard of, you have my support.

You like skiing? You got to love this. Imagine your ski sticks could be filled with wine.

Feeling cold up there? Want to take a break? Open the handles at the upper end and take a sip!

Easy idea to make. Have to make sure that the material the sticks are made of is extremely light.

Movies: The Idea Is Everything

Ok, this is an idea about an idea. I have always been wondering what is it that makes a movie a good movie?

It's the idea, stupid! The one spark that gets your script going, and you've got your film. Most films that really grab you can be summed up in one line.

Don't believe me? Try these :

Jaws - 'Man afraid of water pursues killer shark'
Reservoir Dogs - 'Diamond heist goes wrong.'
Independence Day - 'Aliens invade Earth'

Asking yourself, 'what if...' might help

For example 'What if...an alien visitor gets left behind on Earth' (ET), 'What if...toys came to life' (Toy Story), 'What if...a lodger dies leaving behind a suitcase with a million pounds in it' (Shallow Grave).

Try to create a couple of these by asking yourself 'What if...' and post them here.

Let's see who can come with the next million dollar idea for a great movie.

If this idea gives you many thoughts for your next idea, don't forget to support me please!
