About 101 Stories Behind The Origin Of Everyday Things

There are so many things lying scattered around us that we use everyday without giving a second thought about their origins. We are so used to them that we feel they have always been around.

Consider the pen in your hand, or the television that entertains you. These things did not exist barely a few decades or a few centuries ago.
