Help!
My wife gives me these little outer space juice packets in my lunch. You've
seen them--foil packets with a pointy little straw in a bulletproof
cellophane (whatever) wrapper glued to the packet. The problem is you
can't get the goofy straw out of the wrapper without some serious weapons
and then the straw won't pierce the juice packet, even if you manage to
retrieve the straw in one piece. You end up with more of the juice on you
than in you.
If anybody has figured out how to do this, please tell me. It'll make my
day.
