My favorite kind of epiphany: The shower epiphany.
I've since forgotten what this morning's was, but it was soooo very, very good at the time. I at least remember the subject matter... Hmm.
Update: I have since remembered my epiphany, and realized I already took care of it. (Took care of an epiphany? *shrug*)

I always get great ideas in the shower, and then forget them as soon as I dry myself.
I've been pushing for a shower in my office forever now.
I settled for a notepad near the shower at my house. ;-)
The only thing worse than an epiphany is an epiphanot - the good idea you didn't do anything with.
Mine was the roller blade shoes. I thought about making them when I was in 9th grade (1986). I almost did. I didn't. Now you see them everywhere.
Another one was really an epiphaprollynot. It had to do with combining an oil change place with a drive through - imagine Sonic drive-in, but while you order and eat, they change your oil. Take care of two things at a time! Maybe they wash the outside too... but then I realized the food inspection people would get all over you, hence the prollynot part.
Mike - You are very smart. (And, ahem, I'm reading your paper tonight. At least I printed it?)
Wayne - I enjoy a good epiphaprollynot. Best kind of machination.
Goodness, I can't tell you how many times this happens to me -- and during the period betwen waking up and getting out of bed.
