The Greatest Invention

The greatest invention ever would have to be the refrigerator.  I mean, come on, without it, we would still be storing our potatoes in the cellar and making beef jerky just to live.  Fridges do a tremendous amount of good, and no one ever even thinks about the poor things.

Refrigerators keep things FRESH.

I'm just stating the obvious here.  Things last longer.  We can eat bananas and raspberries in the winter and no one even ever thinks about it anymore; these things are imported on refrigerated airplanes.  We can enjoy food now all thanks to the humble fridge - whether it's stainless, white, or black, or maybe even some other weird color, there is no such thing as a bad fridge (if you buy it new from somewhere reliable, anyway).

Fun with fridges doesn't just have to stop at food either!  Refrigeration keeps artifacts from ye olde days intact.  It keeps us cool on those hot and sticky Saipan afternoons so that, sometimes, we can wear jeans and hoodies and keep in style - not just short shorts and tanks all the time.

And that's all the time I have for now.  Maybe I'll rant about fridges later on.
