I'm smiling at the braille magazine stories. 

I was recently at a meeting of other blind people where braille material was
distributed. I had not gone into said meetings yet and decided to have
dinner first. The server had taken the braille menu from which I placed my
original order and since English wasn't his best language, when I asked what
was available for dessert, he said he'd bring the menu back. OK, great. 

I began to read this bit of braille he put in front of me. He'd turned it to
the last page, as that's where the desserts were on the braille menu. Well,
what I was reading was a list of budget figures and other notes. Yep, he'd
grabbed someone's braille meeting materials, not checking for the print
that's on the actual menu. 

It was a little disconcerting to see amounts in the thousands of dollars for
desserts with such names as Capital and assets, cash on hand. <grin> 

Yeah, I'd have loved the cash on hand.
