The Latest Fad
Have you ever stopped to think about what it would be like if overnight you went from average Joe to famous? I think of that British singer, Susan Boyle. One day, the world doesn't even know she exists, the next day, she's experiencing her 15 minute of fame. I personally have no talent that would set me apart from anyone else, but I think it would be cool if I invented something that no household should be without. Or invent the next game that would be the fad of the decade. You know, become a household name. I'm always amazed at the person who makes billions off of the simplest design, or they take something that people have been doing for decades, market it, and then sell it to the world. There's the hula hoop that the ancient Greeks used as a form of exercise. There's the frisbee, the hacky sack, the surf board, the yo-yo, and the list goes on and on. The yo-yo is believed to be the second oldest toy, behind the doll. I've been thinking about marketing a tablet of paper as "special airplane making paper". You can't buy just any old tablet paper, because it hasn't been aerodynamically tested. My paper is able to withstand the G forces it will experience after being tossed. My paper is guaranteed to fly farther than your average store bought paper. And yes, you can even still write on it, but only with a special pencil, that I'm still working on. It's also a "green" product that is recyclable. Do you think Walmart would push it for me? Is Ronco still around? I know pet rocks have already been done, but how about pet rock accessories?
