Time to Trust the Videos








For many years now we have distrusted the VHS tapes. Every time they come back from their forays into the world we've checked to make sure that they have come back in the right box and made sure no stowaways have taken their place.

Over time we have noticed a peculiar thing. While the CDs and DVDs can not be trusted to return in their box, (they usually have a friend take their place), the VHS always come back, when they come back, in the right box. From this day forward we will rely on the videos to be in their boxes. You no longer need to open and identify each video tape as it comes through. Just pick up the case and shake it a bit to make sure it holds a tape. The DVDs and CDs, however, are not to be trusted, so continue to check all other materials.
