Entry: Dude, that totally shreds.... Friday, March 25, 2005



I just spent 30 minutes picking some teensy bits of former pay stubs, bank statements and mortgage applications out of the gnarly teeth of our apparently sub-par shredder with needle-nose pliers. My back is killing me from bending over that thing and gingerly pulling each snippet out one by one. I finally got it to work again and finished cleaning up that pile of outdated financial papers.

Geeze, I used to work at Arthur Andersen - you'd think I knew a thing or two about proper paper shredding technique...

don't you just love how convienient technology can be? It's our creation to help us, but somehow never fails to cause us more problems.

The giddy world of financial forensics... Enron has nothing on you, B.
Don't you get tempted to push odd things through the shredder, just to see what would happen?

Is it a floor model or one of those thingies that sits atop a wastebasket?

Well, the bright side is:

You weren't picking them out to try to put them back together again.

That sucks. I did that once... and I hate puzzles!

:-P
