Every. Day. Objects.



“The utensil (usually metal) is used to lift food to the mouth or to hold food in place while cooking or cutting it.”

One everyday object, that I at least, have failed to recognize that it too, was one day invented. One incredible fact about the fork to me is that much of the world, even those with the wherewithal and means, do not use them. There is something to be said for eating with one’s hands and being closer to your food, but the fork is just so convenient and useful. Just the opinion from a guy that can’t imagine a world without dishwashers – and nothing to do with the convenience factor there… I am just convinced that dishes are not clean without being submersed in water far too hot to be handled with unprotected human hands.

“…considered by many to be one of the greatest inventions of the twentieth century.”

I dare you. Try:

One of the most overlooked every day objects.


Not an everyday object, or even event, but important enough I thought I would post this. One of my favorite pics…


Many warn of the dangers of social networking (such as FB), and how it somehow diminishes communication and personal contact. I, for one, counter that with the fact that I have connected with family and old friends that I would not have otherwise.

Do I agree with this assumption to a certain point?
Certainly.

Do I feel that this form of communication can (and IS) abused often times?
Certainly.

Do I think one must be mindful of their usage?
Certainly.

Do I think family and friends should make a better effort to “stay connected” without the use of technology?
Certainly, but this is sometimes difficult in practice; we are ALL guilty of this.

Do I think that those connections that I have made where I would not have otherwise are priceless?
Without.A.Doubt.
