CFP/CNPJ

I just ordered webhosting service for the diamond website that I have been working on. On the registration page, they ask for all the normal things like name, address, phone number, etc. The only unusual item is a field for "CFP/CNPJ". I have no idea what that means and I left it blank. My brief Google search suggests that CNPJ might mean "Cadastro Nacional da Pessoa Jurídica", which is used by Brazilian companies as a type of identification number, but that does not seem in any way related to CFP.

Emergency Brakes

I think my train ran over someone. Unlike ordinary emergency brake activation, this one involved police and the train was still stuck in the station an hour later. I'm scanning the news now.

Neighbor's Noisy New Car

I heard my neighbor say that it might get a bit noisy because he is going to bring in the car. I was wondering why he needed to say this, because his children playing in the pool were already so noisy that I couldn't hear my voicemail properly. Now I know the reason. I haven't seen his new car yet, but I'm guessing it's some kind of classic. It is noisier than a Harley Davidson motorcycle and is releasing fumes that smell like neither deisel nor regular car exhaust.

Eye Slime

I have difficulty in closing my eyes completely. I can get them closed, but it requires effort. This is fine when I'm in the shower and trying to avoid getting shampoo in my eyes. This is a problem when I sleep. Keeping my eyes partially open throughout the night causes a lot of tears to develop. Halfway through my sleep, I run out of tears and the accretion begins. I get substantial quantities of hard, sharp crystals. I have actually cut my hands on them a few times while rubbing my eyes in the morning.

I wash out most of the eye gunk while washing my face in the morning, but there is always some residue of slime that is difficult to get out that way. For the past decade, I have been using an eye wash every day after the face wash. This has worked well until a few months ago. The composition of my eye slime seems to have changed. It no longer dissolves in any eye wash that had previously worked for me. I have residue left on my eye more than half the time now. It's irritating and sometime distorts my vision. The only thing that works for me now is wiping my eyeball with facial tissue, which is not comfortable.

A Puzzle

You’re trapped in a room with only two doors as possible exits. Through the first door there is a room with a huge magnifying glass as a roof. The blazing hot sun would instantly fry anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is an angry fire-breathing dragon. How do you escape?

My first answer was to wait until nighttime, but I thought of a better one. Urinate into the first room to make steam that would scatter the light. A magnifying glass only causes burning when the light is focused.

Swallowing Air

It's a problem that I had a long time ago. I'm not sure when it went away or how, but it's back. When I eat, drink, or chew gum, I keep noticing extra air that is in my mouth and I'm obsessed with trying to avoid swallowing it. I'm not sure why I am so averse to swallowing air. It's easy to fix with a burp or fart if I swallow it, but something in me has a strong aversion to it. I'm not sure if it's a sign of digestive or psychological problems.
