Plastic water bottles have become so thin they can not be easily opened without spilling the water.
Other plastic has become so hard and thick it can be dangerous to open and I find tin snips the tool of choice.
OK, I know I am getting old and losing hand strength but I got some peppermint candy the other day that the plastic rapper on each piece required tools to remove.

Not all is lost. Guitars still come in nicely made cases that are easy to open. Boxes of 40 caliber ammo for my Sig P226 have not changed. Even the supposed “child proof” medicine bottles have been reworked so they are not “adult proof”.

Now concerning promotions. The music software companies such as easykeys send me email on an almost daily basis. Berklee Online should know by now after three zillion emails I am not interested.
Don’t all these music software companies know that it is fishing season and don’t have time to look at their stuff?
I really have no desire to know my credit score on a daily basis. And speaking of credit, why would American Express increase my credit limit by another $10,000 without my permission? They must be aware that my wife has a card on my account.

And another thing, any of you notice how much.....

Cheers
