Post #161 from Dr. Crankenfuss, The World’s Awesomest Raving and Rapping middle school blogger–

Ya know, sometimes the best solutions are the simplest ones. And Dr. Crankenfuss can be a real “simpleton,” as you all know. But this time my simple approach is going to change the world. I’VE INVENTED THE WORLD’S NEWEST AND BEST PENCIL. Why does the world need a Dr. Crankenfuss Miracle Pencil? Because the pencils we use now suck, that’s why? Look the picture below and you’ll see how a new pencil looks and how it looks after about two weeks (even less if you make as many mistakes as I do).

Yeah, you know what I mean. Those greedy pencil makers make their pencils so the eraser runs out way before the lead runs out. You ever try to erase a mistake with an eraser that’s gone? You try so hard to erase that mistake, but the remaining metal eraser holder puts a hole in your paper and then you have to turn in a crummy looking hole-filled assignment, something which does not make you look good when your teacher tries to grade your thoroughly-ruined masterpiece.

But Dr. Crankenfuss has a solution to this world-wide problem that will change everything. Look at my solution below and you’ll know immediately what I’m talking about.

Yes, indeedy! The Dr. Crankenfuss Miracle Pencil comes with an eraser just as long as the lead. That way your pencil is good to the last little bit. And to keep the eraser from breaking off, I’ve designed a central eraser core that is made of eraser material, only it’s tough and strong (like me) so the eraser will hold its shape and strength.

Now tell me this isn’t brilliant. Just try, bro!

Anyway, I’ve made this prototype but I don’t own a factory. I’m going to patent this sucker so I can get my just rewards for this invention, but in the meantime I’m looking for a (very smart) manufacturer that wants to make the world a better place (along with making a lot of money). Just send me an email through the Contact Us Button at the menu on top of this post. Or you can leave me a message underneath in the response area.

From Your Dude with the ‘Tude,
With a new invention that’ll lighten your mood,
Dr. Crankenfuss
