I don't know why they are so bad, but around here, the slopes are always icy. That's how I got killed. Some kid cut me off from a side trail while I was on a steep drop of sheer ice. Rather than kill the kid, I killed myself. lol

Owwwww. Stupid kid. Sorry about the fall. >:( Ice is wicked. No thanks. At least you have a story involving a sport injury. I killed myself in a parking lot. Walking. Sort of walking. At least it gave the video surveillance people some material for the Christmas party. LOL.
That's not all it gave them. I think I saw that on SillyHumanTricks.com. ;)
Hehe... GREAAAAAAT!
I wish my 'tuck and roll' training had of kicked in. It was more of a head splat wham tumble spin cussing thing holding a death grip on my purse and keys. (I should get points for that). Thankfully my sunglasses were embedded in my face, so I didn't lose those. Landed about 2 feet from any grip zone on the asphalt. Thank God someone came along. They said they salted the lot. Except for the shady areas.
Trouble is, I get these great ideas but don't really have the marketing skills to turn them into gold.
Well, you can't hatch an egg in a day. Golden eggs take time. The important thing is that you recognized a future need and pounced on it. You'll never have to say, I 'should'a' grabbed that site when I thought of it.
If I could find the right business mind to partner up with, I could make us millions with my ideas.
Any business gurus on the 4um?
I don't know. We need to find someone with Marketing Skills.
Look how far the 'Sham Wow' has come. Or the Egg Lifter. Videos for Cats. These are products people can't wait to get in the mail. I ordered a mop kit once in the middle of the night. I GOT UP bleary eyed and got my wallet to call for a lifetime mop kit with free lifetime replacement of mopheads. This was an unbelievable deal. It even came with a squeegee bucket. No more wet hands or annoying useless levers. SOLD.
Thing was, it didn't start arriving for 8 weeks.
See, this his how you build suspense.
A) you forget you ordered it B) you get ONE part in the mail... the mystery part.
In my case, I received the top of the mop handle. A steel cylinder painted red with no 'end piece'.
So, you say, holy crap, what is this? But your name is on the box, so you are hosed already.
3 days later, the top of the handle arrived, still no clue of the midnight ordering rampage.
WTH?
Next day, new box. Two steel threaded rods painted red.
I sensed a pattern.
A week passed and then I recieved a bucket.
So now, I have 3 red steel rods, and a red bucket.
OMG. What did I do?
Mop heads arrive, and the great news, there are more pieces, but for now, I have:
A sponge head, a foam head, a floppy chamois thing head, a string head and the bonus corner sponge.
Ohhhhhhhh. So that's what I ordered. Clearly mop envy had overtaken me.
Anyway, you can clearly see my point here. WE have to snag people with something irresistable that appeals to the everyday nutbar shopper.
You wouldn't perhaps be interested in a Commemorative Edition of the Wizard of Oz with a script would you?
