I inherited my grandfather’s letter opener. He made it, that’s why we hung on to it.

It really does make opening envelopes easier and more satisfying. Plus it keep the envelope mostly intact to it makes a good storage sleeve. Given that most things that come in envelopes (that aren’t junk) are things we have to hang on to (like tax records), it’s handy. Also my grandfather put a good edge on it, so it’s our best package opener too.

That does seem to be a trend for me too

“I don’t have to explain my art to you warren” is one of my favorite lines from just about any movie. It’s right up there with “Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion” from Donnie Darko
