I started this page to cure my own curiosity about the things around us. There was a scene in the Tom Cruise movie “Cocktail” where they were chatting about people that came up with the simplest of things. It’s interesting to look at the everyday items we use and think where they began.
If I can help educate myself and share the good news with you, I figure why not?
Feel free to reach out if you want an episode done on a certain item. Even if I made a mistake on some facts, feel free to reach out!
