One guy wears a nickel to cover his occular, the other searches the net for a Sesame street character. Here is the Tesla, which invented the radio? Nickel eye or Google elmo, you can only Marconi.

When the first river residents invented the boat, they canoe it would be something every fisherman would want.

They were right. Everyone went nets over it. They were hooked.

Gee, thanks, Bob, but I don't know leather that's really true or not.

What am I doing?

Don't let me dissuede you from your praise.

There was initial confusion over the prize Alfred Nobel set up in his name. Nobel invented dynamite, which quickly became known for its ability to blow large objects to smithereens.

Small wonder, then, that the first announcement for the Nobel prizes announced the establishment of a "Pieces Prize."

It was really just a simple typographical error and the ensuing controversy was blown up out of all proportion.

Way back in ancient times, when people wanted to get rid of waste, someone invented a system of pipes to do this. It was a woman, though no one knows that now. The Roman Emperor told her that if she revealed the secret, he would sue 'er.

You know, I really wish our friend Icarus would get into these pun threads. I think his puns would take wing, and melt our hearts. He is so fatherly. Come on Dad, All Us kids want you to play!

Bob, the florist in my earlier pun was one of a team of guys whose names were John, William and Walter. They were interested in a sibling who worked part-time managing at the railroad. She was a train sister also referred to as a semi conductor.

Inventors are some times like starving artists, they might have to hold down two jobs while they learn their proficiency. I knew two Steve's and they knew what was knack. Their invention was the apple of everyone's eye. However it was soon matched by another that arguably became more popular. I know I Bye 'Em.

There was a guy named Len in my school. We did not see him at all after graduation. Lately, I have been thinking about him. I think I should contact Len's mom to see if we can go saline together.

A German man finally scaled a good mountain, and came down with, of course, a good book. We were very im-pressed with his printing.

When Noah finally made it to land, he found some people who had barely survived on the mountain for all that time. When they saw his boat, they yelled, "Look!! An Ark o' Meaties!

I am so glad that private space exploration is really on its way. That SpaceShipOne was a sight to behold and, unlike our airlines, timely too. It arrived Rutan time.

There were problems in early space exploration with the chimps, and they didn't know if it would be more dangerous if they scratched orbit.

I invented an artificial toe to cover up a minor accident with a chainsaw, a squirrel, and two rabid acorns, but that's another story all together.

Anyway, I put all kinds of useful gadgetry built into to appendage. To connect it to my foot I used simple thumb tacks.

Yep, I invented Tech Tack Toe.
