The Gibson Les Paul Standard is one of the most known, and used guitars today. The reason this guitar is so special is because, if there was no Les Paul, there wouldn’t be that hard dark rock sound heard in many rock songs from the 70’s and in modern times. Back in the 60’s, The 1959 Les Paul would sell for about $200, but now you can purchase one for about $750,000. There are many other electric guitars out there in the world, but none of them have that amazing sound and tone of the Gibson Les Paul.

The first IBM personal computer, better known as the IBM 5150 PC, was introduced August 12, 1981. Having a cost of about $20,000 USD, the computer was more professional, or scientific use, rather then for business, or hobbyist. If the PC wasn’t released when it was, we wouldn’t be able to upgrade the PC into what is is now. Therefor, the computer technology that we have today would not be as advance as it is today.

The Ford Model T was the first affordable car released in 1908. It had a 177 cubic inch front mounted in-line four cylinder engine. It was named the most influential car of the 20th century. In 1927, the 15 millionth Ford T rolled off the assembly line. With out the the Ford T, we would be way behind in car technology. The Ford Model T was in production from September 1908, to October 1927.

The very first call from a cell phone was in April 1973, by Martin Cooper, the formal Motorola vice president. They call was made on a Motorola DynaTAC prototype phone. The battery life was about 20 minutes, and it weighed about 1 kilogram. When the phone went on the market, it cost about $4000. It is amazing that the first phone started like this, and now 40 years later is smilier to a miniature computer. I chose this as an item because it took Martin Cooper dreamed he could make a phone wireless, and that you could take it around with him. He succeeded in his invention and it has drastically changed over 40 years.

On July 16th 1969 the Apollo 11 launched from Kennedy Space Centre. On July 20, 1969, Commander Neil Armstrong became the first man on the moon. He said the historic words, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Approximately 500 million people watched the space landing on television. The dream on walking on the moon was accomplished by the crew of Apollo 11, that month. To actually make this happen took a lot of imagination, but Scientists kept working till they could fulfill there dream.

The wheel is probably the most important mechanical invention of all time. Based on diagrams on ancient clay tablets, the earliest known use of this essential invention was a potter’s wheel that was used in Mesopotamia as early as 3500 BC. A wheel with spokes first appeared on Egyptian chariots around 2000 BC, and wheels seem to have developed in Europe by 1400 BC without any influence from the Middle East. Without the wheel are lives would be extremely different. That is why the wheel is a very important invention.

The Internet, along with the computer, is one of the greatest invention in the last 50 years. The Internet became popular and used by most in 1995. at first the Internet was used for sharing files, but as the Internet grew, there became sights such as google, where you cold search almost anything, or social networking sites, such as facebook, you could share photos, and talk with friends. If there was no Internet, yes we would still live, a very different, and not advanced life-style as we do today. media type="youtube" key="9hIQjrMHTv4" height="315" width="560"

A novel is a book of long narrative in literary prose. The genre has historical roots both in the fields of the medieval and early modern romance. Why I think novels belong in here is it takes a lot of imagination to create a story in your mind, and then have it written out. Novel writers have magnificent imagination and use to it on writ ting great novels.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Most people don't know that it was not in 1903, but in the 1800s, that the Wright brothers, working with kites, had worked out the key issue for flight: control. Orville and Wilbur created a method for the pilot to control the airplane. The real breakthrough was their ingenious invention of "wing-warping." With out the Write brothers Airplane, the airplanes we have today would not be as technological advance. The brothers had a dream to fly, and they succeeded.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">My Library would look like this. You would walk in, and first be amazed by how large the room actually is. One of the first things you would notice is the Wright brothers plane hanging from the ceiling. Another thing that would stand out from the beginning, is that the whole room is lit by Tomas Edison's light bulbs. As you first walk down the centre path, you would stop at a large glass cage, with a Gibson Les Paul inside of it. Around the guitar there would be numerous posters from rock concerts. From there, you could take a path to left, or the right. Both would go upstairs. The left path would include a glass sealed IBM computer, from the 80’s, and the right path would lead you up the first phone ever made. Both paths would have art work of these products being made. By Walking onto the third floor, the first thing that would catch you eye, would be a Ford Model T, in-cased by glass, the third floor would loop around the whole library, with large fountain in the middle. By continuing walking around the third floor, you would see a HUGE shelf containing hundreds of hard cased novels. Then there would be Neil Armstrong’s space suit hanging on the wall with a model of a rock 1:20 actual size. Then there would be a group of wheels, starting with one of the very first wheels and ending with 2011 Porsche wheel. The last thing in my library would have it’s own separate room. It would be a 40x40x40 metre diagram of how the Internet works and functions.
