Default Had a chance to invest

in Velcro when it first came out. I was told that it would replace zippers and buttons and all I could think was that I couldn't imagine counting on something like that to hold together if someone sneezed or coughed. I imagined all kinds of embarrassing situations particularly on stage as we were sewing costumes at the time for a community show and and had some large men to dress.

As the product got more into mainstream and proved itself so versatile, I kept thinking about how the stock must have increased. Oh well, no point in crying over an opportunity lost. Life's too short and the blessing is that we have enough to be able to spend 6 months in TV and enjoy all the things that we want to there.
