Episode 73: What's a flap?   FIMM and Bonnie bought a crib for the baby's room.  Some assembly required!  Oh no!!  The instructions were written in seven languages.  Unfortunately none of them was English!  As is customary these days, there was no phone number to call for technical assistance-just an email address.  FIMM has been emailing all day.  So far he has put flap A into slot B and the rest is a blur.
