Million dollar ideas.

Some of my cow-orkers (yes that is a word) at the ambulance service are in the process of getting a new type of C-collar designed. So, I've been inspired to post about my million dollar ideas.

1. Smoking booths - In many places smoking indoors is illegal. With a smoking booth, a person could pay $1 or so for 7 minutes inside an area that has HEPA and charcoal filtering, thus preventing any smoke from getting inside the rest of the building. The smoker is then saved from having to go out in the rain or snow for a fag. BONUS - the walls of the booth could be used for advertising space. Perfect for bars.

2. Tater Dawgs - Imagine a hot dog, covered in mashed potatoes, bacon, cheese and green onions, then deep fried. Perfect for Texas State Fairs.

3. Dehydrated salsa - Perfect for camping. I did see a similar product being pitched in a newspaper, so I guess I'm too late here.

4. GPS Keychains - Using an RFID chip in your car, you can easily locate it in a crowded lot if you forget where it was. The keychain has a digital readout with an arrow pointing the way. RFID chips are small and thin enough to be placed behind a label, so they could be used by insurace companies, dealerships, or others in advertising stickers in or on the car.

5. Zombie Survival Shirts - would have to be tied into a movie release. Based on the population of survivors, zombies, and deaths in the film, people would get a random shirt stating "I AM A ZOMBIE IN (insert movie)", "I SURVIVED THE ZOMBIE OUTBREAK IN (movie)", or "I GOT EATEN BY A ZOMBIE IN(movie)". People would pay a minimal amount of money for the shirts, 5 dollars or so, and get one randomly sent to them. The survivor shirts could easily go as collector items if the movie was popular.

6. Zombie College - Imagine a school solely designed to teach us how to survive an outbreak of zombies, from initial infection to post apocolyptical survival. In real world terms, the school would focus on training in law enforcement skills, hand gun and rifle training, martial arts with a focus on weapon use, paramedic level first aid, survival techniques, machine and engine repair, carpentry from raw materials, canning food, hunting and trapping, and other classes. The key is to tie it in to Zombie survival. Who wouldn't want to say that they graduated with a degree from Zombie College?

Some other friends of mine have their own ideas:

Bluetooth headsets shaped like Star Trek communicators
Foreign language baby talk tapes
Talking tombstones

Got any others to add?

contract condoms.
each condom comes with a contract for both parties to agree that they are willing participants in the sex act.
It would have a third signature line for a witness (most likely a bartender).
This product could be especially beneficial to professional basketball players and Lacrosse teams. Not to mention any frat boy across America.
