Wheels

I'm lazy. But it's the lazy people who invented the wheel and the bicycle because they didn't like walking or carrying things.

When I was a child I drove my grandpa's tractor. He left the keys in it and I got on it and started it and - so the story goes - I nearly ran over my granpa. I didn't, though.

It was probably shortly after that when my grandpa began drafting plans for his "spanking machine" that he was always talking about inventing.
