It's a hot and sultry night here in Athens. During the day, we cooled off at the beaches or in a pool and now, as I am back home after a few hours at an outdoor cafe with a friend, I am really glad that I have air conditioning in my home. I don't know how I would manage without it, though many do. It is one of my favorite inventions of all time. Another is suitcases with wheels. I hope that the person that came up with that idea is filthy, stinking rich, because he or she deserves every dime, in my opinion. Internet aside (because I'm sure we'd all agree that this is a remarkable technological achievement/invention), what are your favorites? What can you not imagine being without?

I love automatic BP cuffs, thermometers that slide across your forehead, and Oxymeters(that read O2 sats)...they make my job so much easier on a day to day basis. Not sure who invented them, but kudos to them for sure!!
backscratchers and backscrubbers--anyonewho ever had an itch they couldn't reach will understand. Don't know if that's my favorite, there's so many out there. Crockpots are super. Couldn't live without mine.
I couldn't imagine being without my home-made money printing press, because without it where the hell would all the money I continually need come from...?!
