New egg carton design…

This is  quite ingenious,  but the lack of a top is a problem for me.   However, it appears that simply adding an additional piece would keep the eggs safely in place even if inverted,  so perhaps it will catch on.

I must confess I complained when so many producers began using the foam cartons instead of paper ones,  but I have found both types work fine for staring plants from seeds.  I just need to use an ice pick to prick a hole in the bottom of each cup in the foam versions to ensure proper drainage.

Empty desk, empty head…

Does His Oneness ever do any actual work?   Does he think a clean desk will convince the masses that he’s super efficient?   Does he imagine no one will notice that he had his jacket on,  ready to go golfing the instant his 40-second phone call photo-op on Ebola  ended?

Compare his  paperless work  surface to that of a president who worked.
