Amazing Product Labeling
In case you needed further proof that the human race is seriously
challenged, here are some actual label instructions on consumer
goods.

On a Sear's hairdryer:
....Do not use while sleeping.
(darn, and that's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

On a bag of Fritos:
....You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(the shoplifter special?)

On a bar of Dial soap:
"Directions: Use like regular soap."
(and that would be how???....)

On some Swanson frozen dinners:
"Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's "just" a suggestion.)

Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom):
"Do not turn upside down."
(well...duh, a bit late, huh?)

On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:
"Product will be hot after heating."
(...and you thought????...)

On packaging for a Rowenta iron:
"Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me more time?)

On Boot's Children Cough Medicine:
"Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this
medication."
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we
could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those
forklifts.)

On Nytol Sleep Aid:
"Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(and...I'm taking this because???....)

On most brands of Christmas lights:
"For indoor or outdoor use only."
(as opposed to...what?)

On a Japanese food processor:
"Not to be used for the other use."
(Now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)

On Sainsbury's peanuts:
"Warning: contains nuts."
(talk about a news flash)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts:
"Instructions: open packet, eat nuts."
(Step 3: maybe, uh...fly Delta?)

On a child's superman costume:
"Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)

On a Swedish chainsaw:
"Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(Oh my God...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

FH,
This is what Corky the Corgi does when he's begging. He sits on his haunches like this with his hind legs sticking out in front and puts his front paws together and paws the air with them. He does this when we're out feeding and he sees a place to be let out, he does this when he wants a doggie "cookie" (yep, my daughter has a recipe book specifically to make doggie cookies and he has his favorite recipe), when he wants a pig ear, etc. etc. He looks into your eyes with his racoon eyes and blink, blink like he's batting his eye lashes at you and it's hard to say no! Very Happy Smile

Those were fun, Rancher. LPL
We bought a rotary tool similar to a Dremel tool from Sears
and the instructions said something like, "not for home dental repairs."
We could just envision all the teeth in the mouth flying out with a slight miscalculation. Cry
