Quint Vintner, Inventor

Quint Vintner has touched so many lives, it is difficult to remember that he came from very humble roots. He was born in Providence, a gooey city in Saudi Arabia. His mother was a tactful woman from South Africa, and his father was a tailor in Providence.

They first lived in a park bench. They eked out their living making hamburgers and homemade model airplanes in their bathroom and selling them out of their handcart.

After high school, Quint went off to Comstad College in Addis Ababa, but had to drop out after only eight years, due to his frantic personality.

Forced to make his own living, he first worked at a brewery considering protest signs, but he didn't enjoy the work and could barely get by on five hundred eighty-nine dollars a week.

As he worked at the brewery, he began to think about how he could improve decks of cards. No one had tried to make them out of fur before. Quint decided to give it a try. The first deck of cards was much too mysterious and he became discouraged, but he persevered, and eventually came up with a method of hammering the deck of cards prior to use. The decks of cards could now be sold without being mysterious, and before long, the first two hundred decks of cards were sold.

The next invention was to become known as the Vintner Acorn, a gruesome product that became wildly popular in Kazakhstan, but did not catch on in areas that get lots of palls of doom.

Quint's best known invention, of course, is the aerosol can, one of the major accomplishments of the 20th Century, commonly said to be responsible for advancing civilization out of the Hay Age. Every time you use the aerosol can, you can thank Quint.

Invention followed invention, and soon, the name Quint Vintner was known as well as that of Sadie Rice herself. Quint's creative streak took root, and the rest is history.
