Thank You (1)

I would like to thank certain people in the history of history because without them, I wouldn't be able to talk about this. Say what? That was one messy sentence. Anyway, here's a list of thank yous by yours truly to various people who have made a difference in the world (I don't have to thank my friends and family here. I can show them how grateful I am for whatever they have done to and for me in person). Included in this particular list are the first fifteen people who I think deserve not only my thanks but everyone else's. And oh, this is another mini series I told you about. This list will be updated from time to time. Stay tuned.
1. Jesus because he un-damned us all.
2. Fernando de Magallanes a.k.a. Ferdinand Magellan for (re)discovering the Philippines
3. The Mesoamericans for discovering chocolate.
4. The people who discovered coffee.
5. The person who invented the coffee maker.
6. The Wright Brothers for inventing the airplane.
7. The dudes and dudettes who wasted their precious time perfecting the technology we know as "internet"
8. The person who invented the computer.
9. The person who invented television.
10. Christopher Columbus for (re)discovering America (without that, I probably would be a Spanish citizen right now).
11. The dude who invented pizza.
12. The dude who invented the hamburger.
13. The man behind McDonalds.
14. Henry Ford for the awesome Fords.
15. Plato for all the lessons he taught us about an ideal state.
