>Getting the cellophane off a new DVD (or indeed a greetings card, without mangling the card) kills me! I usually have to take a knife to it. I think the DVD may have a wee strip to pull but I'm buggered if I can find it most the time.
Among the pencils on my desk there's always a tiny box cutter, which usually serves to open envelopes... and plastic traps of that kind. In case of DVD cases, I have concluded that the most popular movie on that medium, over the last dozen years on this market, is "Security Device Enclosed". It sells like mad.
