Iron what?
I bet you thought I was going to say Iron F*cking Maiden. But you would be wrong. I was cleaning out the garage this weekend and I found an Iron Hooker among my grandma's stuff. For those who don't know, the Iron Hooker is contraption Dan's uncle invented for organizing golf clubs. Dan and I spent a weekend at the L.A. County Fair trying to sell Iron Hookers in a booth. I don't think we even sold one. We barely even got any looky-loos. We just spent the entire weekend sitting in a booth thinking of ways to take over the world. Maybe that was just me.
It was a rather strange coincidence because we had just discussed the Iron Hooker last weekend. Before that, I hadn't thought about it in years. I hope to never think about it again.

But with a name like the Iron Hooker how could you lose? Sadly the last Iron Hooker was removed from my old golf bag about a year ago. Thus ending the saga.
On a side note, the Iron Hooker was renamed the Clubhouse Organizer about a year after we tried selling it at the fair. It did eventually get some interest from a firm in Florida, but without any big name sponsorship it eventually died. That firm instead picked up the Iron Eagle that was sponsored by Greg Norman.
That is about as close as anyone from Michigan has ever come to doing anything noteworthy.

uh, are we forgetting Madonna? Sure, she's nuttier than a sack of peanuts, but she is quite famous and from Michigan.

I guess it was never explicitly stated but I was thinking more along the lines of people who contributed to the betterment of mankind like Rick Hunt, inventor of the Flowbee. After all, where would we be without a vacuum-powered precision haircutting system. Or the first person to sport a mullet. Lesbians all over the world owe a debt of gratitude to that pioneer.
