After loosing everything twice. Once to The Germans during the 2nd WW and then again to the Russians. My grandfather came to Canada A broken man with $5.00 in his pocket at 65 and when he died at 80, he was a multi-millionaire all over again. Amazing And a very hard working and industrious family.

My dad had a few Motorcycles. They were one of his hobbies
My fathers glider when he was 18 - I had no idea they had such modern things in those days. I mean look at that thing. That picture was taken almost 60 years ago
My dad also had a truck and He and his bother would take the plane apart, put it in the truck, drive it to the top of some really big hill or mountain on their property, reassemble it, and launch it off some cliff. OR--------- THEY COULD PULL THE PLANE BEHIND THE TRUCK a with a very long cable AND LAUNCH IT INTO THE AIR.
When I was a kid he used to take me gliding. Just outside of Toronto I eventually got my STUDENT license. iN THAT CASE i WAS PULLED INTO THE AIR BY ANOTHER PLANE. IT WAS COOL BUT IT WAS NOT MY THING.

Les wants to become Less 2007-2008
2008
You see, we live in a very inefficient world. We've been doing this for the last few hundred years. And though there has been a lot of improvement in technology, Bristol very backwards. Canada is the worst. But it doesn't have to be this way.
People heat and cool their whole house even though they're not in the rooms that are being heated or cooled. Why? It is a complete waste.
There are systems out there that you can buy that automatically adjust to the flus and defense in your house, so that it only heats and cools the areas of the house picture in. But most people can't afford a system like that. A cheap $65,000
Of the most important thing, it to have a good temperature where you're working, and when you're sleeping, or doing other things.
So I designed a bed, because we spend about a third of our lives in it, to help me do most of the things that I would normally do when I am there.
Including heating and cooling the area around it.
This problem number one. Then what about all the things you do in bed. while there are the obvious things like sleeping or having sex, and when some people eat in their beds, or work in their beds, sometimes they just sit on top of their beds and watch TV.
What are things that you normally have beside your bed, light clock radio etc. etc..
But they all pick up clutter on either side of your bed and take up more room. But it doesn't have to be that way either. I look at everything in life and see all the improvements I could make to it. And that's good enough for me. I have no intention of selling them more mass-producing them. Unless someone wants to hire me to work in their company to create such things at the very next to do so. but no one ever has. so I plug away myself.
Every time you want to watch a movie, usually have to get up from your bedgo find a movie, put it into your VCR or CD player, lay back in bed find the remotes.
And I just think about this for a second. How much time do you actually spend doing does each and every time. can take Madame multiplied Other times you do it a year. And you'll quickly realize, that you've just wasted perhaps 20 hours worth of time. in some cases more than that. now that's three days. Three working days. Or three days on vacation.
When you're in your car, you have to go into your backseat to get the CDs?
do after going to the trunk start your car which to be also on your bed.
in my case movies are dispensed with automatically from a CD carousel. all I do is type in the movie I wanted, either by title, or anything, initials Miss lectured of movies in that group. all I do is click on the one I want, and it spits out a, and that's the one I put in a CD reader which is right beside my bed, so that I don't have to get up. In fact my movies or the boxes that hold the movies don't have to be anywhere near my bed, or anywhere near my living room. Everything is in carousels. And every time my friends come over, because it's so technologically advanced.
Cool eh?
