Too much thinking... The Dog-O-Matic is born!

You know you are thinking entirely too much or are entirely too creative for your own good when a simple post to an email group of friends regarding guide dogs ends up bringing crazy thoughts into your head of a new dog bathing system. Maybe it comes from sitting up too late at night hearing those infomercials until all hours of the night. Boy they get on everyone’s nerves don’t they? Somehow, the infomercials stick in your head like an advertising jingle. It brings thoughts of Benjamin Bratt in the movie Demolition Man singing I wish “I was an Oscar Myer Weiner.” Anyhow, you know what I mean. The infomercials stick in our heads because they are all the same; the companies simply change products. The wording is almost identical. After a quick discussion of the Kenmore 3T HE front-loader washer and dryer unit, I began thinking about how nice it would be to have a similar machine for dog washing. Picture a Kenmore HE machine. Now picture the machine with a place for the dog’s head to protrude out the front with a little door and a ramp for entering and exiting. Now you have the Dog-O-Matic!

Disclaimer: The dog-o-matic described and advertised here is not a real object. It is, simply put, a widget. A widget is an accounting term for a generic item that does not exist. Many times in college business programs students have to create a business plan or in the case of accounting, students keep the books on a non-existent company that produces a non-existent product called a widget. The dog-o-matic is a widget; it does not exist so please do not try placing an order for one. It is just a figment of my imagination. However, if someone can find a way to make this idea work and make a profit, I will be more than happy to share credit, fame, and fortune. :)

Now onto my inspirational but nonexistent Dog-O-Matic Net-mercial.
