 | McDonald's Corporation is the world's largest chain of fast-food restaurants . Although McDonald's did not invent the hamburger or fast food, its name has become nearly synonymous with both. The McDonald's Golden Arches logo was introduced in 1962. It was created by Jim Schindler to resemble new arch shaped signs on the sides of the restaurants. He merged the two golden arches together to form the famous 'M' now recognized throughout the world. Schindler's work was a development of the stylized 'v' logo sketched by Fred Turner, which was conceived as a more stylish corporate symbol than the Speedee chef character that had previously been used. The McDonald's name was added to the logo in 1968. |

Bacon Alarm Clock
 | Here is a stupid invention. The Wake n' Bacon is a prototype for an alarm clock that wakes people up to the smell of cooking bacon. Every night before you go to bed, you need to set up the wake up time and also put a piece of bacon in the "clock". Is this how tough our lives have become that we need stupid things like this to wake us up. |
| I am quite happy with my 5 dollar radio alarm clock that wakes me up to some nice music. If you snooze, you probably will start a fire with this thing. I am sure this will be a big hit in this country. |
