HAHAA!! So cute!

It's like what I did at work the other day, I had gotten up at 4 am to be at work by 5 am, so that does have a factor in what happened. A customer asked me for a certain product and I thought he said Mini donuts...after about exactly 4 minutes of trying to figure out what he wanted...it was Mini Muffins...argh!

I was ever so embarassed.

Erik, your post has inspired me to invent:

The Calcustapler!

This is roughly what it will look like:

And notice the copyright symbol, so I guess that means that none of you rapscallions can steal my idea.

And pretend like I have the endorsements and permission from both Texas Instruments.
