Imagine the advantages of always having an encyclopedia,
the
entire works of Shakespeare, Flann O'Brian and anything
else
you can conceive, engraved in micro script on your
fingernails.
These would be viewed using a super slim, powerful
magnifying
device. Entire art galleries could be
"at hand" and the
"thumbnail sketch" could take on a new meaning as the
Sistine
Chapel revealed its splendour on the corner of an index
finger nail. The possibilities are endless. The information
would naturally need regular refreshing, but such is the way
of all printed matter. As a deterrent to nail biting, what
could
be better than confining the last pages of any publication
to
the outer edge of the nail that is usually the preferred
snack
of the nervous and ill at ease.

You've like, so nailed that pun xen dude. Cuticle. |

I don't know much about the size of micro script, I'm guessing rather small, but shirley the complete works of Shakespeare still wouldn't fit? |

Lots of exam takers, nonchalantly checking their cuticles rather too regularly... |

One of our lecturers (Doug Hainline) let us take a 5"x3" card in to our 1st year exams. He was a genius really. He knew that in order to make the notes fit onto the card (and you could!) you had to par-away all the rubbish and compact the pure info... That's normally called revising. Almost everyone took him up, and almost everyone passed! Hardly anyone referred to their cards. Like I said, genius. |
