Stumbling across the Free Patents website couple of days ago, I put it into my del.icio.us bookmarks and revisited it today. After registering with a free account, I was able to view the detailed patent information for all the patents listed here (like, lots).
Anyway, I’ve been browsing through the Crazy Patents listings on the site and there’s some really twisted stuff people come up with!

Stephen Colbert imparts sage wisdom in Wired Magazine…

DON’T BE AFRAID TO MAKE THINGS UP. Never fear being exposed as a fraud. Experts make things up all the time. They’re qualified to.

PICK A FIELD THAT CAN’T BE VERIFIED. Try something like string theory or God’s will: “I speak to God. I’m sorry that you can’t also.” Security experts are in this category: They have security clearances, we don’t. We can’t question the expertise of the NSA because we are not in the NSA.

The South Park episode #912 entitle “Trapped in the closet” addressed the Church of Scientology, in particular its 2 famous faces, Tom Cruise and John Travolta. In what is my favourite episode of the 9th season, Trey Parker, Matt Stone and Co. masterfully exposed the inane concepts that form the basis of this religious cult.

This excellent flash cartoon (adult themed) from ZipperFish.com, also exposing Scientology, its founder L. Ron Hubbard, and its followers is a must-see!

The guy is totally nuts, eh?
