Murphy's Minute for Radio Station 93.3 - 2002

Packing It In. Its summer time and everybodys going somewhere. And as surely as, Cher wears a wig, people are gonna take lots of stuff with them. Why is it though, that everyone is always dying to get away from home yet, when they do get to go, they wanna take home with them? Vacation is supposed to mean getting away from it all, but look inside the average persons suitcase and you will find it all.... the hairdryer, the laptop, the curling iron, the travel iron, the electric razor, electric toothbrush, camera, camcorder, first aid kit, shaving kit, makeup kit. sewing kit. Its a wonder we have room for our clothes. And heaven forbid if you bring a child!! We bring all this junk yet, we think were cunning to save space by stuffing our socks into your shoes before we pack them, or use one of those travel tooth brushes that fit inside the handle. Its no wonder that you have to have wheels on your suitcase. And lets talk about the wheels on the suitcase for a minute. Do you think this is what the early inventor had in mind for his uber-creation? I mean, forget the brilliance of the wagon train, the rail car, the subway system or the Eddie Bauer SUV... These wheels will be great in helping people carry their bermuda shorts and Scooby Dooby Doo Beach towels through the airport. Oh yea, remember to turn off the oven. |
