I'd like to meet the person with the vagina that dulls knives. Much respect, and more than a little fear.

Went to make some egg salad today. Cracked 2 eggs. Discovered that I hadn't cooked them previously. Oh well, fried egg isn't bad.

I absolutely adore reading things like that. That representative has the patience of a saint.

Re: Mistake of the Day
Reading The Sultan's post recalls a story of my father's. One of my brothers gave him a Rolex as a gift. Not having any experience with watches he graciously accepted it although he suspected his son was pranking him with a fake (both my Dad and brother enjoyed no-tell deadpan humor). Time comes for a trade show in Germany, and as he's boarding the plane a passenger stops him: "Sir, did you drop this?" It was the crystal from his "Rolex." In Munich, out drinking with his buddy after the show, they come upon a Rolex store. Joking around, his buddy says: "Hey, maybe they can fix your watch." So they walk in, Dad cupping the watch in his hands like a supplicant: "Could you fix this for me?" Before they could even reach the counter a clerk violently berates them and chases them out of the store. Back on the street and laughing, Dad asks his buddy, who knows German: "What did he say?" "He said: Buy another watch."

I list this as Mistake of the Day because I can't imagine a crazier product name.
