I’m not writing about pruducts here, this is about me. I went to a hardware store a few days ago. My plan was to buy a really good power cable for my electric lawnnmower because I’m bored to death having to buy a new nearly everytime the grass needs cutting. There’s a popular saying that “You get what you pay for”. It’s too scary getting broken ones “fixed”.
In the end, I didn’t buy an expensive foreign one for Rp 1,000,000 ($90) - the store didn’t have one long enough. So I changed my mind; better to buy a cheap cable again from the shop near me. Instead, I bought an AB Trimmer. I’ve seen them in TV ads and have been tempted for a while. Sure, I want have a trim stomache like a model. Back at home, I found that my hands couldn’t reach the top bar. 
I ‘m too short. The guy on TV was built like Arnold Schwarzeneger. 
What to do? I got an idea to extend my arms by slipping them into some cardboard bottle containers. That worked OK until the containers broke. But miraculously, I am now able to use the thing without them ! hop…hop…hop…
