My friend Les and I, are outside-of-the-box kind of thinkers…
That’s the type that we have self-proclaimed ourselves to be, and
refuse to listen to those who want to bring us down
and say we’re just full of…
We are constantly coming up with cool ideas, and thinking of ways that we can use them to give us a financial boost…
Have you ever watched Oprah, when she invites ordinary people on her show who have experienced huge success with a idea that they ran with…
Our motto: If they can do it, so can we… and we use that adage to prime the pump of our ‘idea well’. Once we remind each other of the (self-proclaimed) creative edge we have, usually we get all excited and commit to formulating a plan -
Brainstorming typically follows…
Ideas flowing next…
Then usually lunch (because all that thinking has made us hungry)
None of our ideas has actually paved our road to success yet, but that doesn’t stop us. We are tenacious about our dreams.
The following is an abbreviated list of potential jobs and/or inventions we are working on… which our friends lovingly refer to as our “cockamamie idea list”
1. A cooking show like Rachel Ray’s but even better, because we would star in it and we are way more entertaining than she is…
2. Becoming power sellers on e-bay…
3. Becoming food critics and take restaurant world by storm…
4. Opening an RV gadget store (I really LOVE this idea!)
5. Winning the lottery (less of an idea, more like a wish… a really good wish!)
6. Market and sell Beer Slushies (this is our own original idea and admit it… YOU wish that YOU had come up with it first!)
Confess!!…. You’d love to get brain freeze from one of these!
Unfortunately, we probably won’t be able to sell them to the deserving folks who need them most…
Little league parents at ball fields all over the world, who endure long, torturous, blazing hot, sunny days for their children…
(if you’ve ever been one, you’ll completely understand what I mean!)
Our time just hasn’t arrived yet. But we believe it will one day…
because I forgot to buy my lottery ticket…
But we have heard rumors that Rachel might be retiring soon…
So please understand that if you try to phone this week, we may not answer, just in case the Food Channel tries to call!
