There's tons of patents filed on salary. Actually, a large number, if not the majority, of patents being filed are 'house patents'--e.g. you develop a better way to make a gadget part, etc etc. Also, the patents are filed for strategic purposes--ie., head off competition.

It's funny how Foreman makes more promoting the product than the engineer who designed it.

The Foreman grill is just a big short circuit with a teflon coating.

funny story george foreman sold the rights to his name for a lump sum payment based on the declining revenue sales of the original george foreman grill.

The new owners of the name, release all of those other george foreman products, which meant that Georgie boy got screwed out of millions.

I hate contracts. Deal with people you can trust and work on a handshake, renegotiate for fairness as needed.

My parents love that shit. Gave it to them for Christmas, it has been a huge hit with them. I personally love a nice propane grill for outdoors :-)
