My Stapler

Yesterday, while participating in the PC Mech Ustream discussion (Recorded)  http://www.ustream.tv/channel/pcmech-live , I said, as a joke, in response to Ded Ryzing’s  http://twofourtech.com/ comment that he blogged about a thermometer and received loads of hits as a result, that my next blog would be about my stapler.

OK I have since posted another blog which wasn’t about my stapler, so I have lost out as far as the next blog goes; but low and behold I now present, for your ultimate pleasurable delight, this article on the fascinating and provocative, nay scintillating and wonderful, subject of … My Stapler.

(And you thought I was joking, lol.)

There it is; in front of my spare computer, just in case you thought it was powered by an AMD Athlon 64. A throwback to the 1970s, battered, beaten, and almost worn out; but nevertheless still in satisfactory working condition.

I know it’s a lousy photo. Try again:-

There; that’s a bit clearer, although it still leaves much to be desired. From the loose rubber baseplate I can inform you that it is a Rexel Saturn, Registered “des.” (Designation? description? - Design; that sounds more fitting.) number 945957. Made in England.

 

In those days products made in England were made well and made to last: hence the fact that this 20-something-year-old; maybe even older, example, is still working, despite general physical abuse such as dropping, throwing, treading on once, even lending it out and not getting it back for months.

 

The rubber baseplate also instructs me to use only genuine Rexel No.56 staples. Fortunately I have a rather large stock of just that staple left over from when I used to trade in that type of thing some years back:-

Voila! Un staple le No.56

 

So there you have it: The promised, although nevertheless short, article about my stapler - And no doubt thoroughly enlightened and fascinated you are from it too!

Well I suppose I should give you a break from all this incredibly illuminating mental stimulation; so I’ll end the article here, as I realise that too much wonderment at once will probably have some sort of detrimental effect.

Therefore I end here with great sadness that I was unable to tantalise your senses any longer on this intriguing topic; so until my next post I bid you all farewell; and I hope you’ve found the topic most riveting - or should I say, most stapling? :-)
