> [@aruvqan](#): > > um, get a dog? > > I have to race our roomies dog to anything dropped on the floor or she will try to eat it [or at least have a good taste] I dunno about your dogs, but ours do not, on balance, leave our kitchen floor cleaner. :dubious: Anyway, they may make these but I’ve never seen them: _lightweight_ long sleeve knitted pullover shirts. I sunburn very easily and wish I had something to cover my arms in summer that wasn’t sweaty. > [@Paul in Saudi](#): > > A hot dog made out of roast beef.

I already have the remote start feature on my car - now I want it to drive itself over to the door so I don’t have to walk too long outside in the rain or freezing cold or icky August humidity. (I wouldn’t use the feature in good weather…at first 😃 ) catfood my cat will actually eat everything I really want already exists in some form or another: the iPod, my PDA, these are viable versions of things I’d envisioned back in the early 90’s. If only I’d had the wherewithall to actually invent them…:smack: ---

Cars with heated steering wheels. I think they make one or two models, but not in a Vehicle I would buy. ---

I don’t need them anymore, but there’s a time I’d have given a mint for a pacifier with a self-contained locator device. Just clap or whistle and it’d beep (loudly enough to be heard over the baby crying!). All the time I spent hunting for the damn binky so I could get my son to sleep… Oh, and a house that flushes. _Kuh–chuhhhg_! and the house is clean!! ---

> [@Max Torque](#): > > [They already make 'em](http://www.smarthome.com/1300.html). Perhaps by more than one manufacturer, but this is the one I’ve seen in person. Ah, didn’t know they made them. I was thinking more along the lines of a big screen tv with a little refridgerator on the bottom so I could store beer/snacks. No more missing those precious few seconds of the game and yes, I am that lazy. Come to think of it, I probably could just move my fridge into the living room and solve the whole problem. ---

Pre-made Puppy Chow. Not the dog food. The Chex Mix and chocolate stuff. Why should I have to go buy a whole box of Chex Mix, a crapload of chocolate and a whole bag of powdered sugar when I want some? You would think someone would have mass-produced it by now. ---

**Non-stinky wet cat food that stays wet all day** - Wet cat food is generally better for cats (well, it is higher in fat) because it makes it’s easier on their teeth and it helps hydrate them (which is a problem in older cats). The problem is that it STINKS, and that it dries out and cats won’t eat it. Since cats like to feed on their own throughout the day, I’d like to see non-stinky wet food that I can leave in the kitchen all day that the cat can graze on all day. Also, and this one’s nerdy and esoteric, but I’d really like to see a **modern PCI-based MIDI interface for computers**. People that use computers for sequencing drum machines, samplers, synthesizers, etc. can only buy Firewire or USB MIDI interfaces, even though they have noticeable timing problems compared to older PCI-based MIDI interfaces. The problem is that nobody makes PCI ones anymore, and even if you can find one, it’s probably incompatible with WinXP or other modern things. Bring it back! ---

[Your problem has been solved.](http://www.corkscrew.com/sales-vacuvin-wine-saver.html) I use one of these myself. When you’re done with a normal bottle of wine, put on one of the corks, and pump it about 12 times. I wouldn’t say the wine stays perfect, but it will be entirely drinkable even two weeks later. Outside the fridge, which is nice, because fridges are always full.
