Happy Holidays

Hot off the news wire, a statistic that literally had me laughing out loud...
"Impregnable packaging has incited such frustration among consumers that an industry term has been coined for it - "wrap rage."  It has sent about 6,000 Americans each year to emergency rooms with injuries caused by trying to pry, stab and cut open their purchases, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission."

The number of trauma patients usually drops off during the winter, but I'll be on the lookout for an increase in wrap rage injuries over the next couple months...

I've had that problem! And so far I haven't stabbed myself!

Now that I just cursed myself....
