Greatfulness

Greatfulness: Greatfulness is the intersection of gratitude and greatness. It is the realization of one's full potential, and the achievement of a fulfilling experience. Greatfulness occurs in the overlap between a realization of the possibile and an understanding of one's own individual characteristics. It is the recognition of heights in each category of human endeavor, ranging from sex to food, friendship to travel, and juxtaposing this realm with one's own self assessment of needs and desires.

Without seeing what is possible, potential is constrained; without seeing what is needed, the self is unfulfilled. A "greatful" person is one who aspires to experience and achieve the exhuberant life, a life well lived, not by a societal measure, but instead as a function of the possible and one's own world view and belief system.

Martini Glass

The most impractical receptacle yet devised, a martini glass remains a cocktail party mainstay, wreaking untold havok as revelers repeatedly splash innocent bystanders on the slightest bump, rumble or imbalance.

The time has come for a new invention: the splash-guard martini glass. Designed to retain the same aesthetic qualties as the traditional, the SG Martini Glass has a small wrap-around lip that bends the edges of the glass slightly inward, effectively encasing the liquid and preventing its escape in the normal course. In one area of the perimeter, the lip opens for approximately one inch, allowing for easy sipping.
