Paper Flies Away!

Paper flying away is a beautiful spectacle, unless it's from your desk. People underestimate the power of a paperweight, and it's time they got their due! Like giant raindrops sitting on your papers, which are no doubt as important as the Shroud of Turin, you get the feeling that something delicate can have more power than a brick. I like that. In the past, paperweights were treated like the Christmas fruitcake, met with dull stares and murmered thank-you's. No more! This is the age of the paperweight - the less paper people use, the more they need a paperweight (it works in my logic, at least).
