My friend Beth and I thought we were being so cool-combining our mother's names (my nom's maiden name Kuhl) and her mom's name Bella into a blog: KuhlBella. Guess what? I just saw a clothing line by that name. Is it even possible to come up with an original idea in 2009?
It seems like history is repeating itself with the "great recession" and people returning to basic values (ie; poverty). I remember reading about the depression when I was little and asking my dad about this terrible time and he assured me it could never happen again. Part of me didn't believe him even as a kid...didn't we always learn that history repeats itself?
I guess those Silicon Valley types keep coming up with new ideas: green collar jobs and technology, new ways to communicate, twitter, and new ways to make and lose money (skype).
But are they new ideas or just spiffed up versions of the age old way of communicating--talking? After all blogging is just a diary-gone public.
This curmudgeon clearly needs a nap--if I wasn't so addicted to facebook I might take one.
