I could've invented the wheel; I'm sure out of necessity I would figured it out eventually. Too bad I missed my calling, me going down in history as a genius! You can't imagine the frustration of having an inventive mind but constantly being beat to the chase with every idea I come up with! its completely wrong!
Track suits? Yeah! I could've totally thought them up. Velcro, how could i miss that? Now computers and cell phones? Nope, I'd have no clue where to begin. I am perfectly content with the old method of communicating w/ someone face to face. I'm actually very phobic of the phone, I get anxiety. The awkward pauses, the lack of body language, drives me nuts.
The wheel, yes. A device to make fire, probably, but not matches, I'm not good with chemistry. I probably would've invented gloves, hats, chimneys. I probably could've invented a plow, fly swatter and coffee mug. But the television, nope. Airplane? Never. Camera? Not on your life.
I'm so happy there are people in this world that can handle this type of thought because if it were left to me, I'm afraid we'd all still be walking around looking like Fred Flintstone.
