Photo Challenge, Day 8. The final day.
Barbara over at the always awesome Bad Tempered Zombie has challenged us to post a photo a day that hints at having a story to tell. This is the last pairing of dogs we have had over the years. And is our current set of pooches. Thanks for looking in, and thanks for the challenge Barbara!
Yesterday, on the way home from work, I saw a car with extensive duct tape body work done on the front end. This is not unusual in and of itself-- I see lots of duct tape repair work nearly every day and have myself actually done duct tape repairs to cars, couches, children, etc. What was unusual was that it was a relatively new Mercedes. One would think that if one had the vanity (and money) to buy a new Mercedes, you would have to vanity (and money) to get bodywork done in a timely and non-duct tape manner.
ReplyDeleteDuct tape is the best! So many uses.

ReplyDeleteI need my one of them fancy duct tape hats.
"I need me" is what I meant to say.
ReplyDeleteAre you a fitted hat or visor man Spooney?
ReplyDeletethank GOD for duct tape
ReplyDeleteif any of you like medieval costumes, an easy way to make a pattern for a lady's bodice is to do this:
ReplyDeleteA) have said lady put on an old tee-shirt.
B) wrap said lady tightly with lots of duct tape.
C) cut said tee-shirt off wrapped lady by slitting the shirt-with-tape up the side
D) le voila! You now have a individualized bodice pattern! Lay pattern on fabric, cut out and put gromits up side where cut was!
We did this with mine goodwife and had a grand time.
remember a few years back when the government suggested that we use duct tape to protect ourselves from terrorist attacks?
ReplyDeleteWell, back then I made little ribbons-- like breast cancer ribbons-- out of duct tape and was amazed to find that people would actually BUY them from me!! Granted, it was only about a quarter apiece, but still. Tell me that sarcasm ain't alive and well in today's world.
Oh, and Johnny-- maybe after they sunk all that dough into the car they couldn't AFFORD to have it fixed??
That thought had actually occurred to me, 10,000.
