"Oh poo. This is the last time i buy a cordless hairdryer!"Recently in my musings, i have noticed that i am slowly being swallowed by cords. Cords for my iPod, cords for my digi camera, 2 for my mobile, for my computer, for my electric toothbrush! this does not include the numerous power cables and headphone cords that cause me to screech in frustration late at night. These cords, that must slither across the room as i doze, dreaming of an uncomplicated life, to mate and in tangle themselves in an orgy of unused electronic wires and rubber. So much so when i go to use one of these cords, they are tangled into a hellish knot that defies reason and requires more effort to solve than a Rubik's cube or the Paris Metro. Many a night i have sat, brow furrowed, trying to liberate my iPod USB cord from it marriage to my camera recharge unit. I have horrible thoughts that one morning i will awake and have to fight my way through a sea of wired and cords, much akin to the pit of snakes in Raiders of the Lost Ark. I want one super cord that plugs into everything, a UNI cord. That charges all electronic toys, that come in a neat retractable container. It would even be great if it could change my sheets and find my lost keys as well.
