I bought a new set of headphones over the weekend, which happens often enough. Working in radio I go through headphones like the Vikings go through quarterbacks. And whenver I buy new headphones I become enraged (well, sort of).
We’ve all heard for years how universally hated the clam-shell packaging is that comes on most hard goods these days. It’s a massive pain in the butt to open and isn’t doing mother earth any good either.
What I didn’t know until today is that there is a name for the I-will-kill emotion that overcomes us when we can’t quite get the d*#@ thing open. It’s called “wrap-rage.” So there.
But the best thing I learned was that there is a common tool in most kitchen drawers that works reasonably well at opening the clear plastic, thereby forestalling a full-blown case of wrap-rage. Check out the video.

Tomorrow is the big Jimmy Buffett concert.
Just two days until I head to Parrothead central, donning my boardshorts, lei, Hawaiian shirt and Buffett state of mind.
Ahhhh….nothing like daydreaming the day away with thoughts of your toes in the sand.
With Jimmy Buffett live in concert just a few days away, here’s my Top Five Buffett for today.
