How to Tear a Phone Book in Half

Here's your chance to express your warm feelings about the phone company.

1) Hold the phone book against your torso like this. Notice how the page edges are not even, but staggered.

2) Make a one inch tear right down the middle of the book. This is not as difficult as it sounds because, due to the staggered paper edges, you're not ripping all the pages at the same time.

3) Turn the book over and repeat this action. You'll wind up with one tear about 2 inches long.

4) Now hold the book very close to the tear. Move your right hand down and to the left, and move your left hand up and to the right. Then reverse directions. Going back and forth like this you'll eventually rip the phone book in half - sometime this fiscal year.
