### April 23 Oh man, April 23 is a day for some of the weirdest inventions! First there's the Shake Weight ___(yes, that *weird* arm exerciser)__ which claims to give you a great arm workout in just minutes. But like, what kind of sorcery is that?! Then there’s the Palm Pilot ___(now obsolete, but back in the day it was revolutionary)__ a handheld personal digital assistant that replaced paper planners. But looking at them and the size of the buttons, it became obvious why so many of us just resorted to using our phones. And lastly, there’s the Pet Rock ___(no explanation needed)__. Sure it may have been funny as a gag gift, but come on! Who actually thought this was a good idea? At the end of the day, April 23 has produced some of the silliest inventions ever. Let's all take a moment to appreciate how far technology has come since then!
