That fly swatter thing looks like it'll cause the same problem as the Opti-Grab (tm) (http://www.muhka.be/images/original/image_1740.jpg) - the inventor should prepare for a big class action lawsuit.

Well, ummm...
It's not an invention, really, it's a hack. Who you gonna sue? The guy in the picture? The flyswatter manufacturer? I dunno.
BTW- I don't see how in the heck a thingamabob on your glasses is going to make you cross-eyed. I call gold-digger!!

EDIT- All right, I fell for it. You guys are too much...
