The $250 second place was given to Carrianne, Jacob and Robby Turin of Greensburg, Pa., for a label they found on an iron-on T-shirt transfer that warns: “Do not iron while wearing shirt.”

I wonder if this simplistic approach could possibly work on the incredibly sophisticated, finely-tuned minds of extremist Muslims embracing the concept of suicide bombing.

The letter-opener sefety goggles one is great. Does this mean a laptop manufacturer can include a warning that says, “Warning: fireproof suit recommended?” That way if anyone is burned from an exploding battery (or simply trying to use a MacBook Pro on their lap) the manufacturer could simply ask if they were wearing their fireproof suit at the time and escape liability.

Might be great practice for bronc riding but it ain’t anyway to make a living.
