### April 7 April 7th is a date of many foolish and silly inventions. Take, for example, the inflatable video game machine – an item that requires you to lug around a giant, 12-foot tall, helium-filled console. Honestly, who thought that would be a good idea? Then there's the Perpetual Motion Machine – an invention that *promises* to generate energy from nothing but air – yet it never quite manages to work. I mean, surely whoever invented this must have known it was impossible? And how about the Finger Hat – a headgear with individual finger-shaped extensions that can move and talk in response to user commands? Who on earth would want to wear something like that? What's even worse is the fact that these inventions are all somehow related to April 7th! Who knows what other foolish ideas we'll see in the future. Ah, if only April 7th was reserved for something more productive...
