Indeed.

Al Gore invented the golf ball.

No, that was Albus McReady.  He was very bored with sheep-farming one afternoon ...

Al Gore invented Comedy Central Secret Stash.

He needed something to do with all the videos people sent him to use to blackmail GWB out of the race for office in 2000...

Al Gore may well be drafted to run for President again in 2008.

_I_'d vote for him.  Hopefully, he will permit his interesting and witty personality to shine through the usual political handling ... :P

That's what killed him last time, listening to the "experts". If he'd just ignore the James Carvilles and that kind of 'manager' and go with what he thinks is right...and acts like himself, not like a stuffed shirt, he could win. Assuming, of course, that the party doesn't get totally Hillaryized in the mean time.

The whole thing's going to come down to the populist progressives versus the overtly 'centrist' political operatives. The people win if the progressives win. The corporations continue to win otherwise. It'll be a little tighter on them, but not as much as it needs to be.

Ooops!! Hijacked the game.

Al Gore invented the electric hula hoop.

A slight malfunction then led to the invention of techno.

Al Gore invented solar-powered roller skates
Knurrhähne sind eßbar aber empfehlen würde ich das nicht unbedingt.
The aspitriglos is edible though I do not actually recommend it.

Scriblerus the Philosophe

Indeed.

He's also invented other useless solar-powered things, such as a solar powered blender, stapler, and paper shredder.

I especially liked his Solar-powered Camp Fire*


Al Gore also invented the solar-powered camera-flash.  Only works outside, and during the day...

Actually, I believe he did. Especially THIS one:  http://www.missdewey.com/. (flash-heavy site, but worth the wait. very amusing, actually. Ask her personal questions ... !)

Al Gore also invented cheese-cloth. A material used to strain cheesy jokes and such. Also used in Afghanistan women's wear, chiefly over the face ...

Nope, Cheesecloth was invented by the Monks of St. Gorgonzola the Fragrant, and made available to the modern world by the Brothers of Perpetual Holeyness of Switzerland.

Al Gore invented the blend of Colby and Monterrey Jack Cheese that's sold as Co-Jack.

I thought it was the Wensleydale cheese that he invented to give him a special smile when saying it.

Al Gore invented Wallace & Gromit

Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith

Are you certain such fine British humor was authored by a sometimes too-stiff American?

Al Gore also invented too-stiff speeches - so stiff that they gave me a sympathetic back-ache just watching them ... :P

Was his upper lip stiff also?
