MBA Student Creates Glow-In-The-Dark Thong

POSTED: 1:32 pm EST November 29, 2004

HOUSTON -- A Texas MBA student was designing a glow-in-the-dark jogging suit when he got distracted.

Now Beau Carpenter is marketing a neon thong that's so far attracted eager customers at a strip club. The Houston Chronicle reported that Carpenter had no trouble enlisting help in his venture from a chemistry lab manager and electrical engineering student.

The GloThongs have batteries that, when fully charged, illuminate the straps for two hours in various neon colors. Customers can use a wall adapter to charge them up, but car chargers are also available.

They'll be available next month and cost about $50.

The real problem for Mrs. Glock is finding fresh batteries.

For some reason, all of the batteries she takes into the bedroom seem to go dead rather quickly... ahem...

It took and engineer to invent this? No, it took an engineer to have the idea that something like this was needed.

And of course, the next step will be glow in the dark thongs with a built-in vibrator.

Maybe it could change colors with each pulse. I sense some possible entertainment value here.

I think we would have to get permission from the Coast Guard, the Federal Aviation Administration and NASA before giving her a glow in the dark thong.
