Not a funny. These are cupcakes. I didn't make them. Just wanted to share because they are so beautiful.

A guy went door-to-door looking for work. One homeowner handed him a brush and a can of paint and offered him $150 to paint his porch.
A few hours later, the guy came back to the homeowner and said, "I'm all finished, but you should know that your car's a Ferrari, not a Porsche."

lol......... I'm headed to Dallas in August to meet up with some friends for four days of poker!!!
Not to ruin your joke, but I actually have an answer to that. Retailers require packaging on some items that is nearly impossible to open to prevent "shrink," which is a retail term for shoplifting. When I worked for a software company (and software was actually sold in stores instead of downloaded online), we had to design packaging that nobody could easily open and get the disks out of.

Oh, man, I'll be out of town that four days.
I have a friend/former boss who hosts a pretty big-deal poker game in his home in Highland Park. I'm guessing it is pretty high stakes.
