The banks must be irked

Remember how easy it was to open a roll of quarters wrapped in paper? Just bang it against a hard edge and the quarters would spill out somewhat like Pillsbury Pop 'n Fresh. Now the banks are using plastic to package their rolls of quarters and unless you have some type of tool to help open the roll, you're in for a moment of aggravation. Now why would the banks decide to do this to their loyal customers? My theory is they are frustrated by all the rules and regulations heaped on them from the government and this is one of their subtle ways to get even, since they can't retaliate against big brother directly, at least they can have the satisfaction that their plastic rolls are bugging the rest of us.

Dishless Society

Aren't you sick and tired of washing dishes? I sure am and that's why I'd like to propose the concept of a dishless society. Granted we'd still need pots and pans to cook and bake with, but once it gets to the table, why bother with dishes? Just put the food directly onto the table and once you're done eating, simply wipe the table clean. Think how much time this would save. Soups would just have to be eaten very fast before running over the edge, perhaps with a straw.
