Dear List
Turning my desktop stapler over I find a secret device *- a long
tongue of shiny steel that, when depressed, slides out, locks into a
slot and I guess, can be used to remove staples. I have had this stapler
for many years and never noticed this extra bit. There are words on the
slide that tell me other fascinating things like my stapler was
*designed and manufactured by Isaberg AB Hestra * and it was
*made in Sweden*. Now my stapler is altogether a different thing.
I imagine it pining for the Fjords and I will take special care of it in
the darker months in case it gets moody. Maybe I will take it with me to
parties and introduce it as my Nordic friend, Rapid47.
