Ravenous Alley Gator |
|
When Erin Isabelle's Mom read in the paper about how many Dream City Waste Manegement
workers were injured every year, she became alarmed. It seemed that many people
carelessly dropped banana peels and grape skins on side-streets and alleyways causing
the workers to slip and fall. In less than a week Mom invented the Ravenous Alley
Gator. The two-wheeled machine had four feelers that swept the dropping into its
grinder, mixed it with orange peels and dropped the mixture out as biodegradable
cat litter. On its first day, however, the Alley Gator ran amok and raced through
the mayor’s grape arbor turning his yard into the neighborhood cat box. Police then
hauled the Alley Gator to the wrecking yard and crushed it flat as a pancake.

Notebook Fusionator |
|
The Notebook Fusionator is Erin Isabelle's parents' newest invention. If
it works, it can drive a train a thousand miles on the energy from the energy contained
in ... dust bunnies.

Timearang Shifter |
|
The Timearang is Dad's newest invention, though Dad admits he may never
get it to work. But if he does, the shifter would move the machine and its rider
forward (six speeds) or back (one speed) through time and - like a boomerang - returns
to the present. It requires a lot of work needless to say. But Erin understands
this about Dad's gizmos. After all, she is the inventor's daughter.
