2/28/2009 New Stuff, Funny Stuff, Stressful Stuff.Made mashed potatoes by hand. It was pretty tiring. First boiling, then peeling, and mashing. I was talking to a friend about ideas for stores or restaurants. He suggested that someone should copy the Hooters business model, but target it towards women instead of men. Quite amusing, although I doubt it would be as successful. School. 2/21/2009 Funny Stuff I was looking through my blog summary, and almost everything is categorized under either "Life and Thoughts" or "Computers and Internet". Don't you hate it when you've set your mind on something that you know you have to do, and it just never gets done, whether it's homework or a project. Along the line, something just happens and you get distracted. Very irritating, lack of control and stuff. 2/15/2009 How I'm Feeling Right About NowAwesome Radio StationMusical Starstreams Trippy electronica and stuff. Great for studying or reading. 2/12/2009 Interesting Similarity Of Note The Boxer Rebellion bears some similarities to the Ghost Dance. 2/8/2009 New Life Goal So I'm sure you've all heard about the Snuggie. A reverse bathrobe branded as an alternative to blankets which can "slip and slide" and make your hands "trapped inside". If you haven't, get ready for some laughs. And then there's the ShamWow and the Tiddy Bear... All are worth no more than $1 to make in some foreign country, and yet according to Wikipedia, the Snuggie has sold 4 million units. Yeah. Unbelievable. So the business model to success is - 1. Create stupid product that spreads virally because of how stupid it is 2. Buy up ad spots on late night TV 3. Profit from the random people that actually buy Snuggies and Slankets and ShamWows. 4. Repeat! Will definitely try to create a crazy product eventually. Maybe the "Brop". The broom and mop! |
