in the end, I think it just hated me. I shook it, pulled really hard, cursed and swore at it and... nothing... and I couldn't use the normally very useful trick of sticking something else in there because the counters in this place have a very nice tiled overhang that makes it essentially impossible. (unfortunately)

BUT... after much heaving, shaking and general surly-natured attacking of the drawer by me, and then me giving up... my roomie stepped in and just plain opened the drawer. Then she turned to me and said "oh, I see you got it open." Go figure.

either way, I once again have access to forks, spatulas and bread knives. Yay!

Alison - I'd also vote for the pulling really hard...you could also try to dislodge whatever is stuck using another kitchen-type utensil.

Also, scratch that bit torrent link. It's just a torrent of the iTunes download, which means it's DRMed. Apparently bit torrent doesn't come through again.

I don't think that heart is correct. There's definitely some strange things going on with those vessels.

Besides, it's a kitchen. There should be the schematic of a duodenum or something there. Obviously.

And have you tried pulling really really hard? Worked for a girl in my Chem 263 lab (although her thermometer ended up U-shaped after the endeavour.)

maybe you guys know...


what's a solution (any) for opening a cutlery drawer when there's something wedged in there such that you can't get it open? ... at all?

(hooray, who needs forks anyway, right?)

I"m not so sure I'd commit to this in my house... but to each their own...

"Hotel Chevalier is a 2007 short film by director Wes Anderson. Starring Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman, the film acts as a prologue to Anderson's 2007 feature The Darjeeling Limited.

...

It was made available in the United States as a free download on Apple, Inc's iTunes Store on September 26th.

Of course, as is business as usual for this kind of ridiculous licensing scheme we're under, it's not available as a free download on the Canadian iTunes Store. If you're so inclined, bit torrent provides a way.
