Glowing Thongs

Why didn't I think of this?

The Associated Press reports on the invention of the Glo Thong:

The thongs have lightweight, water-resistant batteries that, when fully charged, illuminate the straps for two hours in various neon colors, including blue, pink and yellow. Wearers can use a wall adapter to charge them up, but car chargers are available for those on the go.

The thong will be available for $49.95 by mid-December, but the group intends to expand their offerings to include luminescent bras and bikinis.

"We're selling attention," Carpenter said. "You kind of feel like Cinderella until the Glo runs out."

Perfect for those who don't function well in the dark. Thanks to Kevin at Wizbang.
