Napoleon Dynamite* Instant Table Stabilizer
From the bookofjoe skunk works comes this stroke of perspiration... wait a minute — that can't be right, can it?
No matter — we're thinking at warp speed here and don't have time for white noise.
Ever find yourself annoyed by a table in a coffee shop or restaurant that wobbles because one leg is too short?
Yes, I know — you could just as well say that's the result of the other three legs being too long but if that's your position, I suggest you look deep into your soul and ask yourself, "How's my chi today?"
Well?
How is it?
Thought so.
No matter, we're emitting on a supersecret frequency known only to Kenneth and we don't have time for fuzzy reception.
Or logic.
But I digress.
Now, you're probably wondering where this is going.
Me too.
So, there you are, at Babbo or Caribou Coffee or wherever and you notice your table's rockin' — and no one's knockin'.
Sorry — a flashback from a bumper sticker I once saw on a Volkswagen van, back in the day.
Well, guess what?
Balance is at hand — maybe not literally, since you'll probably have to get up — but in the house, how's that?
Go over to the area with the sweeteners and half–and–half and all and grab a couple packets of sugar.
Put one under the short leg of your table.
Better, eh?
Keep adding packets until stability happens.
Hey, what a great bumper sticker:
- Stability Happens
Om.
But I digress yet again.
Isn't that a great solution?
