Flipped through channels last night and came across American Inventors. I believe it's produced by the American Idol folks, but not positive. You could just feel the investment that each inventor had put into their product. Each invention was unique in its own right and had to make it through a panel of 4 judges (needed 3 out of 4 votes to move to the next round).

(Don't mind me for a minute while I rant).....
Let's just say that the one judge Doug is a big stupid-meany-head! Doug is cruel for no apparent reason - c'mon, let's talk about having the appropriate approach buddy! From American Idol, it's normal to hate Simon Cowell, but although he may lack tact, at least Cowell has respect! Doug will not gain any respect by the viewers by the way that he treats the inventors! Throughout the show, Doug claimed to be an expert on just about every topic and had a thought and an idea for everything!

(Okay, I'm back, but I can't guarantee I won't go off again about "D")....
It was refreshing to see such creativity and drive from so many. These people have poured their soul into this one idea that they feel is revolutionary and marketable. Whether it is or isn't, is not the point...

Here's to those embracing and living your dreams.
