MONTANA MAN CREATES `BUTT-KICKING MACHINE'

MISSOULA, Mont. (Wireless Flash) -- Know someone who needs a kick in the pants? A Montana man has the solution. Inventor Bill Vaughn is the creator of "The Ass-Kicking Machine," a backpack-sized contraption which delivers swift kicks to the wearer's rump every five minutes with a size 9 1/2 sneaker. Vaughn says he created the butt-kicking machine to straighten out his "lazy" nephew 11 years ago. Sadly, he has no plans of marketing the derriere-booting device even though he admits a good butt-kicking can help improve memory. The Thomas Edison of rump-pounding also has another memory aid invention -- a camera that displays a picture of where you left your keys just by saying the word keys.
