Other than the first great invention, fire, and the second greatest, The Gutenberg Printing Press, what are some of the greatest inventions in the world? For me it would be the portable recorded music device. Personally I own a Zune, I know most everybody else owns an I-Pod, but mine is the Zune.

It holds 30 GB of music, of which I have used up about 29 GB's. That is the equivalent of more than 500 CDs, or 6,753 songs. Some of my music was originally recorded in the 1930's and 1940's. Imagine, I can listen to music that was recorded before I was born and carry it around with me where ever I go in a device smaller than a deck of playing cards!

P.S. Beer was a pretty good invention also.

Waffle fries are french fries that are in the shape of a waffle. it kinda looks like the top of a cherry pie, with the lattice top. thats what it looks like, a lattice.
