Rosario Griggs, Inventor

Rosario Griggs has touched so many lives, it is difficult to remember that he came from very humble roots. He was born in Brasilia, an art deco city in Georgia. His mother was a nonchalant woman from Guatemala, and his father was a hit man in Brasilia.

They first lived in a sod house. They eked out their living making tacos and homemade pumpkins in their salon and selling them out of their fire truck.

After high school, Rosario went off to Bailey College in Victoria, but had to drop out after only three years, due to his furry personality.

Forced to make his own living, he first worked at a fortune teller shop roasting statues, but he didn't enjoy the work and could barely get by on four thousand four hundred eighty-nine dollars a week.

As he worked at the fortune teller shop, he began to think about how he could improve rubber chickens. No one had tried to make them out of porcelain before. Rosario decided to give it a try. The first rubber chicken was much too ordinary and he became discouraged, but he persevered, and eventually came up with a method of unlocking the rubber chicken prior to use. The rubber chickens could now be sold without being ordinary, and before long, the first seven hundred rubber chickens were sold.

The next invention was to become known as the Griggs Jar of olives, a ruined product that became wildly popular in Latvia, but did not catch on in areas that get lots of drought.

Rosario's best known invention, of course, is peanut butter, one of the major accomplishments of the 18th Century, commonly said to be responsible for advancing civilization out of the Epoxy Age. Every time you use peanut butter, you can thank Rosario.

Invention followed invention, and soon, the name Rosario Griggs was known as well as that of Deena Lundy herself. Rosario's creative streak took root, and the rest is history.
