A device used to catch bird droppings (I thought that was called a car).
This handy invention, patented by Bertha A. Dlugi on April 21, 1959 as a "Sanitary Appliance For Birds", consists of a patch of material straped to the back end of a bird for the purpose of catching anything that may come out before it hits you, your car or someone you love. This invention was developed around the time when keeping parakeets and other similar birds as a household pet was gaining popularity. The unique characteristics of these types of birds meant that they were usually allowed to fly freely around the house. The downside to this is that birds cannot be "easily" house trained. Therefore, Bertha Dlugi thought it necessary to develop a device that kept her furniture from looking like a car parked under a birds nest. Thus...the "Sanitary Appliance For Birds" was born.

Quote of the Day"Delegating work works, provided the one delegating works, too." -Robert Half Great Inventions of the 20th Century:
Will Keith Kellogg was the founder of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, founded in 1906. In 1894, Kellogg was trying to improve the diet of hospital patients. He was searching for a digestible bread substitute using the process of boiling wheat. Kellogg accidentally left a pot of boiled wheat to stand and the wheat became tempered (soften). When Kellogg rolled the tempered or softened wheat and let it dry, each grain of wheat emerged as a large thin flake. The flakes turned out to be tasty cereal. Kellogg had invented corn flakes. |
