Flash of Genius

Have you ever come up with something and maybe said it out loud to the people around you and wondered how you could go about inventing it? Then life, reality and your situation gets in your way, and one day out the clear blue the very thing you thought of shows up somewhere under an assumed name and all you can do is tell present company how you thought of it first and too bad you didn't patent it?

I know how you feel and so does Dr. Robert Kearns.

I understand the hows and whys and wherefores of why he could not just "let it go".

My friends have told me, "you just have to drop it", "get over it already". But how do you? How do you get over people stealing something you created? Or in my case REALLY HAPPENED TO ME! You can't. You just can't. When you come up with something. Something no one has ever come up with and then you see it somewhere - with someone else's name and people comment on it and give kudos to the person who stole your idea-!

I know.

I have been there when they took MY STORY and made it THIS STORY.

So here I am again to you, present company. Just shrugging my shoulders and wishing I had patented things, or published it in a book first. Now that it is a "novelty" it doesn't matter who wrote it first. It can go on sitcoms or show up in a movie, it's common folklore now.

As much as I wish I could hunt down the person who stole it and through it up on the internet anonymous and make his life hell on earth for the rest of his days -

I can't... I am chasing air.... I am not as brave nor do I have the patience of Dr. Kearns

Whoa Even In Costco....

There are just some things that should not be done.

The wound of racism is constantly being licked when people "forget" and do things that really should have had more thought put into them.

This is a "cuddle me baby doll" that was recently being sold at Costco under the name "Lil Monkey".

Think Tank & Random WTF's Take 2

1. Why do rich people call their hand-me-downs "vintage"? Why can't they just call a spade a spade?

2. Why does Lisa Rinna's lips look like they are inside out?

The Best Thing Since Slice Bread!

For months I have been entertaining, winning over my guests with a little culinary secret I am about to share. The Best Thing Since Slice Bread has got to be the GOYA PLANTAIN CUPS!

12 frozen cups come in a box. All you do is deep fry them to a golden crunchy color and I usually make a chicken sofrito, or strip steak in sauce. I have even made them with grilled shrimp... OMG sooo goooooood!

The boys LOVE IT. It is quick and easy, and it makes you LOOK LIKE you spent a lot of time on dinner, when you don't really have to. I have been serving them as appetizers for parties, snacks on the weekends, and sometimes even for dinner! They taste amazing!
