An Educational Day

(This one is partly funny just because it was sent to me by my ditzy cousin.)

You learn something new everyday
I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Did you ever look at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know how when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Right there on the end of the box is a tab marked ... "Press here to lock end" .. it locks the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too (The boxes are made at the same factory). I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too!

I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up. I'm sharing this with my friends. I hope I'm not the only person who didn't know about this. (I have to admit that I didn't know about it.)
