You're quite right, Aubrey, quite right.  I'm just cranky, is all.
Things done by chance or nature -- wind, rain, illness, age or
whatever -- I can cope with more or less cheerfully.  Things done by
stupidiy, malice or even just a failure of corporate entities to
attend to my personal whims and which I have to expend effort to
fix, undo or re-do put me in a cranky snit.

Example: A box of table salt comes with a "convenient" metal
pour-spout.  But it is so designed (or at least constructed) that
opening it is awkward and it tends to pull loose and become unusable
early on.  To remedy this, one must carefully open a new spout for the
first time with a screw driver and then bend it just so with small
pliers, after which treatment it serves well for the life of the
box. I now do this routinely but it annoys me that it is so.

(That spout is metal so this *might* be construed as a metalwork
topic.  If you're feeling generous. :-)
