At work today I was watching the Receiving department wrap up a roll of carpet for storage. The carpet sat on a machine that rotated it while Andrew evenly distributed a wrinkle-free layer of stretch wrap down the lenth, perfectly overlapping each layer to create a nice helix. I don't know why, but suddenly I found it strikingly beautiful to watch the cigar-shaped carpet roll get coated in a perfect, shiny and smooth cocoon of industrial saran wrap.

[Intriguing comment, feel like I turned over a few books at once...]
Bit like that wrap they use for christmas trees that you see everywhere. Cigar shaped things, bah.
What's even better is the name on the boxes that the stretch wrap comes in: "Stiff-N-Strong Hand Blown Film"
LOL, another victory for the marketing executives.
They should really transfer to another wrapper company.
