Well since I wouldn't have gotten to know anyone on here if it wasn't for the computer I'm going to say the computer of course.

The computer is an interesting one...
I remember reading a Calvin and Hobbes comic a few years ago, and Calvin's dad was typing away on the computer, complaining that these new advances in technology make his job tougher/more hectic.

Cell phone? Yes, that's definitely a useful invention.

I have no use for a cell phone.  I have one, but NEVER use it.  Hubby (and others) have implored me to get in the habit of keeping it with me 'in case of emergency', but I just never think of it.  And if it rings when I'm driving....I don't answer, or if it rings when I'm in a store.....I don't answer.  

  Shouldn't sliced bread be on this list somewhere?
