TRICIA'S TWEET OF THE DAY:
Is it our desire to bring glory to God or to bring glory to us? A good question to ask ourselves in situations.
RANDOM OBSERVATION:
**When I was in about 9th grade, I had a teacher that mentioned how there are certain products that we've grown to call by their brand name instead of what they are. We don't say......'hand me a facial tissue'......we say......'hand me a Kleenex'. I was fascinated by this as a kid, and thought I'd list a few of these everyday things that we've grown to call by their brand name
ITEMS WE CALL BY BRAND NAMES:
1. Kleenex
2. Scotch Tape
3. Google ( we'll Google something instead of 'search' etc)
4. Brillo Pad or SOS Pad ( as opposed to scouring pad)
5. Band-aid
6. Post-it Notes
7. Speedos
8. Crock Pot
9. Bubble wrap (It's actually a trademarked brand name
10. Chapstick
11. Ping Pong ( trademarked brand name for table tennis equipment)
12. Coke13. Jet Ski (trademark brand for personal water craft)
14. Crazy Glue
15. Clorox
16. Lazy Boy ( for recliner)
17. Levi's
18. Kool-Aid
19. Jacuzzi (brand name for Hot Tub)
20. Jell-O
21. Frisbee (Brand name for flying disc)
22. Astro Turf (trademark name for Artificial turf)
23. Saran Wrap
24. Vaseline (Brand name for Petroleum Jelly)
25. Ziploc
26. Velcro ( trademark name for hook and loop fastener)
27. Polo ( has become our lingo for type of shirt)
