New Stuff II

The second installment of new products that catch my eye is devoted to only one item: the Black & Decker Automatic Jar Opener. Is this a sign that the U.S.'s obesity battle won't be won anytime soon? If some are too lazy to open a jar I doubt they'll be willing to take a walk after eating whatever was in that jar.

I'm not married but would any self-respecting husband allow something like this into his house? The next thing you'll know someone will invent a device to take out the garbage with just a press of a button. When that happens what will be the point of husbands?

With my luck I'll be getting this for Christmas. If so I'll put that unopened box right next to the unopened soft-serve ice cream dispenser I got last year.
