Happy Holidays to all my loyal readers out there. I can't believe it has been almost a month since my last post; my sincerest apologies. In case you were wondering I have all of my travel plans for 2008 set. If you are reading from one of the places listed below please say hi and give me some travel tips. Heck, I may even drop by to say hello. Some of the highlights will include Dubai, Qatar, Trinidad and Tobago, and Germany. Of course this doesn't include my many spontaneous trips which tentatively include Las Vegas, Seattle, Montana, Idaho, Alberta, New Orleans, Montreal, and any other country bordering Germany. But don't worry, there is still plenty of room in my passport.
Only a few days left to vote in the "What do you sleep in?" poll. So far, surprisingly, sleeping naked is the most popular overnight apparel.
Today's topic is sort of a combination of other Deep Thoughts and a recent post left by my cousin on his blog. It has to with history and where modern day ideas, products, and sayings originated. I was sitting on the couch talking to my roommate and I posed the following question, "Do you think if you were born about 100 years ago that you would have invented something like Velcro?"

Think about it. How many times have you seen an invention and thought to yourself, "That is so simple, how come I didn't think of that?" I mean come on people, Velcro, a ruler, that little clip you put on your potato chip bag. I would like to think I could have thought of one of those things but I guess I was just a little too late. Thanks mom and dad. I mean, I could have made a million dollars.
But hey, soon it will be 2008. A new year. A chance to start fresh full of new ideas, new Deep Thoughts, new adventures and maybe, just maybe, I can think of something new that will change the world. Until then I will have to hope my little blog makes each of my readers laugh a little bit which is good enough for me.
Have a safe, happy, and healthy Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, and New Year.
P.S. Hopefully my Hawaii Warriors can keep the aloha going against Georgia. Go UH!
