Note In Passing

If you have an electric pencil sharpener - - or even one of the hand-cranked sharpeners familiar to schoolchildren - - and you notice that it isn't sharpening worth a damn, open it up and look at the cutters, you'll likely find it's gummed up from some woman using it to sharpen her makeup pencils. You'll have to either scrub the grungy stuff off with a stiff brush or, if it's caked in and hardened, scrape it out with a stick or metal rod.

I have to clean the hotel's sharpener now because some battle-axe brought her dull-as-fuck pencil to the desk. Here's a tip, ladies: men find natural eyebrows far more attractive than those drawn on with a pencil.
