If you have stapled documents going into a 3 ring binder, the staples need to be vertical so the pages can be turned. It's still awkward putting stapled docs into a 3-ring binder, but if you angle the staples it would be impossible.

Well, I wouldn't PUT stapled docs into a three ring binder. I would remove the staples and, if necessary, put clear plastic dividers between the docs that need to stay together. I mean, COME ON, stapled papers in a binder? Why for?

I'm having an anxiety attack thinking of glatt's vertical staples.

I want to staple some of my salesmen's heads to their desks for the staple abuses they perpetrate. Or at least fill their staplers with Mayo.

How do you get beyond that when flying? Especially small planes? Do you just concentrate on the job at hand?
Flying is different. Much like driving a car. Your enclosed and strapped in. Standing on the edge of a platform way up there gives me the heebie jeebies!

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Fun! I mean, heights give me the willies, but not in a really scared way. Spiders and other crawlies, those are my fears. Being nervous about heights makes a hell of a lot more sense than being afraid of spiders!

I skimmed this and thought you were telling him to fill spaces in their heads (like a hollowed out temple) with bean dip.

I should go now.
