A Little Helper Monkey Would Be Great Right Now.

So between trying to catch up on the 8.2 tons of work that piled up when I was in D.C. and trying to tear myself away from Katrina footage, I haven't had much time to compose the normally brilliant social commentaries you all have come to love and expect, for which I sincerely apologize (excuse my use of poetic license with the words "brilliant," "love," "expect," and "sincerely.").

That was, until I saw this.

Use number 2,976 for duct tape.

Hahahaha... that looks like my old car after I got into an accident. LOL. I had duct tape holding the whole front bumper on.

I used to have a duct-tape wallet.. my sister has it now.

If it rips - add more tape.. can't go wrong.

I have to love the crazy angle of this photo.

AMG is driving along when she spots this new duct tape usage.

Her instincts kick in.
She dives for the glove compartment, the wheel spins frantically.
She pulls out the Sony DSC-P200, the car lurches crazily,
as Lil' Nazi is about to fly into oncoming traffic, AMG snaps off a shot, BANG!

Throws the camera into the back seat (Lovingly throws) and makes a grab for the wheel, her finger tips just grip and she pulls madly.

The car veers back into the right lane and the 28 tonne articulated truck zooms past, its horn blaring loudly.

Another disaster averted.
The shot taken.
Today's blog is in the bag.
AMG smiles.

You would think that someone who is genius enough to think of such a creative way to keeo their car intact, would be able to channel that genius into greatness. Therefore being able to then afford a car that did't need taping ;).

I once met a guy that built his muffler out of beer cans.

Hey, duct-tape is advanced, most people would use string.

If you can't duct it, fuck it! LOL

Peace

Not sure if I'm impressed or depressed that you risked your life to show that Americans can get more for $1.99 at a hardware store than some people earn in a week making their shoes...

Duct tape could also double nicely as a ghetto seatbelt. ;)
