Day 44:
 
Dear Diary:
 
It seems like the solution is at hand. Finally I will achieve fame for  what 
this invention will bring to the world. My name will soon be a household  word 
know by everyone. I have tried small dowels of varying sizes and I know  that 
soon I will have to make a selection. I have managed to find a supplier of  
cotton of the highest quality and now I need only find the proper means of  
securing it to the dowel. I am thinking of wrapping cotton around the tips at  
each end. I have been trying to think of a name for my creation and since this  
is my 17th attempt to make a working prototype, I have decided to call it,  
"Preparation Q."
 
My wife hates the name, but I explained to her that other products that use  
the word, "Preparation" have proved successful and that besides being the 17th 
 letter of the alphabet, the letter, "Q" could stand for Quality. My wife  
suggested , "Baby Gays" but that seems too queer to me.
