I couldn't help but think of this episode of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' (parental discretion advised): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqXm435CG-Y


Here's an unusual product I came across...

Trousers made from recycled WWII British army tents!

That's a pretty creative use of materials for a new product... I can imagine a lot of people thinking these are pretty "cool"...!

They sell for £60 (British pounds) - or about $122 US dollars at current exchange rates...

I bet there are a "ton" of new ideas like this, just waiting to be discovered...
