Do you like to wait? I don't. In fact, most of us hate to wait. You can see it most anywhere... at stoplights, in traffic jams, in waiting lines at the grocery store... no one much likes waiting.
I saw a bumper sticker that said, "Good things come to those who wait." Well, that guy lost his bumper. Someone stole it. I'm not sure if they wanted the bumper or just to get rid of that bumper sticker.
We hate to wait so much that it has led to all kinds of inventions -- microwaves, fast food, instant coffee, instant grits, instant just about everything.
