I'd love tohelp you. I'm hear from 8:00 to 5:00 everyday. I don't have a computer at home.

OK here's a handy tip...replace all your knives with spoons. You'll find it harder to cut with spoons...

I don't understand the cutting.
I'm miss paper cut, and I cry when I get them, and I get them all the time.
Would love to help if i could.
Happy thoughts, happy thoughts.
If you'd be happy you would not cut, or maybe you would.

I use razors not paper. Though your comment has confused me...

Hurts like hell.
