You know what bothers me?  Cable knots.

We have all experienced the frustration of trying to pick up a cable that looks well coiled, and ended up with the worlds biggest ball of rubber coated yarn.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a 3′ pair of earbuds, or a 300′ DMX cable…cables always seem to find a way!

Mysterious, indeed.

Where were we?  Frustration.  Yarn.  World records.

Then, from the dark, a shining light appeared while I roamed the great blue corridors of my local Lowe’s Home Improvement.  The light was so bright I was blinded.  It was some kid playing with flashlights.  So I turned away from that light, and then these fuzzy little straps called out to me, as if by name.  I purchased them, naturally.  With great ease, and immense satisfaction I wrapped one of the neat little velcro ties around every cable that I owned, and some that I didn’t.

I was changed on that day.  From that moment on, I have had no issues with sifting through bins of cables with not so much as a hint of cable knots.

So, boys and girls, musicians and church tech directors, do yourselves a favor and go get some of these bad boys from your local Lowe’s Home Improvement.  You won’t regret it!

Until next time.
