Lindsay Arnold, Inventor

Lindsay Arnold has touched so many lives, it is difficult to remember that she came from very humble roots. She was born in Vienna, a sleek city in Turkey. Her mother was a sinister woman from Kuwait, and her father was a village idiot in Vienna.

They first lived in a brownstone. They eked out their living making cookies and homemade pain pills in their dining room and selling them out of their skateboard.

After high school, Lindsay went off to Sanders College in Garden Grove, but had to drop out after only ten years, due to her enraged professors.

Forced to make her own living, she first worked at a craft store spraying corsages, but she didn't enjoy the work and could barely get by on three thousand seventy-six dollars a week.

As she worked at the craft store, she began to think about how she could improve paintbrushes. No one had tried to make them out of mud bricks before. Lindsay decided to give it a try. The first paintbrush was much too authentic and she became discouraged, but she persevered, and eventually came up with a method of leaving the paintbrush prior to use. The paintbrushes could now be sold without being authentic, and before long, the first two thousand paintbrushes were sold.

The next invention was to become known as the Arnold Daisy, a hand-carved product that became wildly popular in Guatemala, but did not catch on in areas that get lots of drought.

Lindsay's best known invention, of course, is sticky notes, one of the major accomplishments of the 19th Century, commonly said to be responsible for advancing civilization out of the Taffy Age. Every time you use sticky notes, you can thank Lindsay.

Invention followed invention, and soon, the name Lindsay Arnold was known as well as that of Edith Dorn herself. Lindsay's creative streak took root, and the rest is history.
