Oh yeah!

All-TIME 100 Gadgets

Quick thoughts; it's a whacky list, Mattel Electronics Football is listed as number 6 but GPS, microwave oven and hard drive aren't even listed. Huh? Might be those are so common people don't even think of them as gadgets yet the ballpoint pen is listed as number 13.

Go figure.

Fun anyway, even if I've never even heard of some of them.

Ahh, lists - I love lists!  Did you see The Clapper?  Hahaha, where's the Chia Pet?  Oh, BTW, they do have a GPS on the list under Lifestyle.  If they had a Kitchen catagory surely Ron Popeil would have made the list himself.

Haha, nah, I didn't see the clapper. I do love lists and then it's ever more fun to pick them apart.

Good ones.

Didn't go back to check but I'd have to include super glue as well.

I loved that Mattel Electronics Football.  I figured out how to beat it pretty easily after a while, but it was fun getting there.
