Oh man, I am a Queen of Ducttape, I have a PhD in ducttapology!
Why use cardboard, you can lam yourself fabric right out of the tape!
That would SO be my event (and yes I can swim!)
Duct Tape Rules!
Okay thinking about it, would need something to give some shape to the kayak, and would have to cheat and use some cardboard in there to build the ribs with.
Making prom outfits
Make a wallet or purse out of it
waterproof reinforce a canvas tent seam (in the middle of I swear a monsoon)
Repair an embarrassing rip while camping (amen)
Build a trailer fender out of it (old one died during a move, and it passed scruitiny by some of the finest HP as they passed me)
Reskin a torn up greenhouse in 40mph winds (many a time)
Fix a tarp rub and pad said spot so it will hold together for another 250 miles (oh yeah)
Hold a bandaid on (pesky things fall off when you’re mucking in freezing water)
Reinforce an ankle (either that or crawl back to camp)
tape a busted toe to immobilize it (ER looks at you STRANGE on this)
Radiator hose bandaid to get that last 30 miles to a part store. (old VW’s gotta love them)
(ever watch the Mythbusters episodes where they do incredible things with duct tape, even the boat they built?)(they did two or three)
?
Oh no they broke out the cardboard
Looks like I’m headed to the dance floor
to break it down for ’em once again
Guess what, jigga what, hey, I can do a head-spin
I don’t care what jam is on
Cause i ain’t going home until the break of dawn
Find myself in tune with the groove
I can’t stop, uh, I gotta move

“IF it can’t be fixed with Duct Tape or Bailin’ Wire it ain’t worth fixin!” My Grandpa used to say all the time. Does anyone else make sure they pack a roll of Duct Tape when they go out adventuring?
Heck I got a couple of rolls within grabbing distance in the house, in the shop, in the garage, in the greenhouse…. not to mention all vehicles!
Bailing wire, fence wire, grommet kit, bunch of blue and silver tarps, and WD-40. You can do a lot with all of the above. Oh, and a big roll of 6mil clear Visqueen!
What’s in the box… papers of some sort (forgot to pay property taxes so guess who bought the lien) or a big SportsMart sign to stick in front of the Outdoor Galore Store…. or Honcho trademarked and copyrighted the Outdoor Galore Store name so there’s lawyer pages, or something…. or a combo of all of the above…
Greg! – Panel 2. What are you going to do with the *cardboard* sheets?

Yup. Best… Event… Ever!
Ode to duct tape, what can it be used for:
Making prom outfits
Make a wallet or purse out of it
waterproof reinforce a canvas tent seam (in the middle of I swear a monsoon)
Repair an embarrassing rip while camping (amen)
Build a trailer fender out of it (old one died during a move, and it passed scruitiny by some of the finest HP as they passed me)

It’s amazing what can be accomplished in the name of petty spite.
That is… awesome!

Sportsmart’s Ed Honcho needs to read the competition better…
Something nasty is going to happen when those two pull out their “Surprise”.. They clearly do not know who they are dealing with..
Yup. They they become an event…
Finally! My kind of event!
Although I’m pretty good at slogging through swamps too… Not at top speed, but I get where I’m goin’ soon enough.

Shiny brand-new BMX bikes for the 50-mile cross-country race planned for the back lot of Sportsmart. 200 new bikes…
