KEYNOTE: Want to know what's REALLY man's best friend? Urinal cakes. Riding lawn mowers. Pop-top beer cans. Forget fire, arrowheads, and the wheel. The best tools invented by man are such innovations as beer, bikinis, and ESPN. And there's more where they came from, in this hilarious look at the stuff that real men are made of: * Chow and Suds (microwaves, vending machines, hot dogs) * Sports and Recreation (golf tees, cleats, shin guards) * Household Gadgets (Super Glue, Swiss Army knives, Velcro) * Fun and Games (Pong, clay poker chips, WII) * Out and About (drive-through restaurants, rollercoasters, ATMs) * And more! With fun Man-Facts (bits of trivia) and Man-Dates (important dates in manvention history), ManVentions will remind guys why it's great to be a man! AUTHOR: Bobby Mercer ( Rutherfordton, NC) is a high school physics teacher and the author of Quarterback Dad and How Do You Light a Fart? SELLING POINTS: *The only collection of inventions men would trade a beer for *The bikini--a favourite Manvention--triggers the tools ("things you manipulate with your hands") part of the male brain (Princeton University) * Perfect gift for dad on Father's day.
