Fun...

Here I am sitting at the Cloverdale library waiting for Rod who is in his career development class across the street.

I have 40 minutes left on this computer and I was just thinking how far technology has come over the last several years. It's mind-boggling!!! Especially for me because my brain is easily boggled. Instead of just sitting here reading or wasting precious time, I can actually add something to my blog for all to read...wow!!!

Who would have thunk this would be possible?? It doesn't take much to amaze me. I'm still in awe about PVR - I can't comprehend how you can pause or rewind live television!!! WHAT???!!!

Going back a bit - here are some other inventions that amaze me:

typewriter (and look where typewriters led to...)
vacuum cleaner (as if a broom wasn't enough...)
sewing machine (gee!!!!!!!! no more needle pricks in the finger)
telephones (and...........)
cell phones (need I say more....)
light bulbs (and now we have the energy-saving ones that give off a nice soft glow - so soft that you can't read by them but at least we are saving energy...)

Believe it or not, my time is almost up and I've hardly even scratched the surface of amazing inventions..........

I'll get back to you later from my space ship....
