The notorious 99.9% free
One of the many off-the-wall thoughts that plagues my mind is why products claim they are 99.9 percent free of something. How is that possible? What happened to the 0.1 percent? It makes me wonder if someone got tired on the assembly line. Then, there is fat free, which I heard nothing is fat free. Someone please enlighten me. Speaking of, let's take fat-free milk. To my understanding and someone's comment that passed through my ears, fat-free milk isn't really fat free. Well, that's just silly. That's misrepresentation of the product I spend $2-$3 on. I hope that the person who told me that is wrong, but we wouldn't know something is fat free unless we worked in the factory in which the product came from. I will say this: I was working one day, and I saw this Christmas ornament (yes, I know, it's time) that was covered completely in glitter -- or so I thought. I turned the ornament around and saw a bald spot. That was one of those "it's-5-o'clock" ornaments, which means it was the last item of the day where the person who worked on it got it semi-completed before they raced to the timeclock. Now that, my friends, is a 99.9 percent glitter ball. I hope furniture companies make sure their products aren't 99.9 percent free of anything. The last thing I need is for me to roll like a butterball if my bed falls or a chair breaks. I guarantee I will be 100 percent ticked.

I always try to make people laugh. It's actually a pleasure I have. If I can make one person smile, my day has been fulfilled. :) Trust me, if you keep reading my blogs, I'm always going to have something to say that's off the wall. posted by

I appreciate that comment, Aprill. It's great that you are understanding of my twisted mind. But I bet other people are wondering the same thing. posted by
