The iBag...

--
Hey Kids, It's the iBag Zip-lock Protector™ for Your iPhone!

I don't know about you but whenever I go out a paintin' en plein air I get messy oil color all over my hands. Dunno how. Just happens. And when I'm out in the field and get an important gallery call I can't miss, I used to try and wipe off the gunk on my trowser leg before gingerly pulling out my iPhone™.

But I'd never make it in time. Never. I'd always missed that call!

So, What to do?

One day I was cleaning up the kitchen, instead of my brushes, which always surprises the wife, when I noticed she had recently purchased some half-sized zip-lock snack bags for the kids. And I experienced a brain-flash. I could put my iPhone™ in one of those bags, take it painting, and then slip it part-ways out whenever it rang.

Obviously I had to test this genius idea!

Wow! I found the iPhone's™ touch-sensitive screen still worked when enclosed by the bag, so I didn't even have to slip it part-ways out! Then I discovered something even more better! Better than even more better! I COULD MAKE PHONE CALLS, TALK, AND LISTEN RIGHT THROUGH THE BAG!!!

Anitra said...

ps actually looks like a great solution!

Karen Lewis said...

Oh, that is good.

Mine is a flip-up phone. What do you have for that? I can't exactly open it in the bag and leave it off the hook.

Okay Karen, you got me on that one. I'll have to send your question back to the boys in the Research and Development department. (Ha!)

cute picture of you Thomas...! ..I'll pass on your genius invention. I like paint on everything. Yeah. It's art-y. If you don't have paint on everything you can be mistaken as a business person. Where is your inner bohemian?

Nancy Cuevas said...

Thomas Jefferson Kitts said...

Cling Wrap? Great idea. Hadn't thought of that. Ha!

That was the best commercial I have ever read on the net! I'm sure Apple or ATT may offer you some serious cash.
Thanks for the laughs! Hope to see you out in the field someday.
