One time, the local pharmacy gave my wive a “child proof” cap on her bottle of prescription pills. She couldn’t get it open. I couldn’t get it open… and I own tools! So, I laid it flat on the cutting board and used the cleaver to cut off the lid. Worked a treat. Thirty days later, I took the remaining bottle back for a refill. The pharmacist didn’t even ask: The refill came with an easy-open lid. Actually had little wings to make it easier to grasp.

Moral: Sometimes, cutting it is the best idea!
