- > (Dave Gagne) writes about about Bad Places to have Good Ideas.
-
- How about:
-
- In a staff meeting as *you're* giving the presentation.
-
- While mucking out stalls.
-
- While you're driving along a remote highway in the middle of the night
- in the middle of farm country and you have an idea and you're
- afraid to pull off to the side of the road to write it down because
- everyone who has ever watched a horror movie knows that there's
- more than root worms hiding out in those cornfields.
-
-
- When you're trying to have a heart-to-heart discussion with your
- teenager about safe sex.
