Good morning! I once duct taped the air intake valve of my car together to keep it cranked! It had a sizable crack and too much air was mixing into the chamber. It worked, at least long enough for me to drive to an auto store and get the real part! I have also duct taped a skirt, but that is a horror from the 90's that shall not be re-lived.
In other news...I stayed up entirely too late, and am trying to nurse my way into the world with tea instead of coffee. It's a hard sell. But, I have a pretty good working draft of my entry down. I'm going to tweak it today, and will hopefully like the results. (I don't know if this happens to other people, but sometimes I spend so long editing the same piece that I hate it by the time it's done.) If anyone would be willing to give me a quick review or some constructive feedback when I am done (not designed to take me out of the competition in an underhanded move!), that'd be pretty fly. ;)
Wow. You rock. I have no idea what an air intake valve even is or looks like. Next time I have car trouble, will you come over and fix it? I'll supply the duct tape. :-)
I must still be asleep or something...but when I hear the words "duct tape" I think someone's going to commit a criminal act...or be very very naughty (I wouldn't use DUCT TAPE for that!).

*nods*...
Truth be told...bondage tape is used for that (we're allergic to the adhesive to most rubber products...since it's latex) since it's not gonna tear off your mouth when you pull it off.
As for having a dirty mind - makes the week more bearable....

Oh, I'd never want to use duct tape like that. That would hurt to pull off! I have found that better restraints are things which don't take skin off with it when pulling it off later...but perhaps that's just me :)
Yes, my dirty mind makes life more interesting and fun, that's for sure!
It's Monday. What can I say? I survived the weekend, though just barely. I know I say things are always an adventure with me, but sometimes I think it might be nice if they were a tad bit calmer. I just had a very scary thing happen that had me shaken up almost all day yesterday. My iPhone screen is shattered (but still usable). Not to mention having a sprained wrist and cuts all over. OH, and I woke up with a very sore arm that I must have hurt yesterday too :(
A friend of mine just told me about a kit that can repair it if need be. I am sort of considering pre-ordering the new iPhone anyway though. This phone has been through a lot and has other issues such as not being able to send photo texts (which interferes in my fun! hehe). I sort of needed an excuse to try and get an upgrade anyway (I am due for one after all)...
Morning! I'm holding together, barely. Didn't sleep too well last night. I got to bed around midnight but it was thunderstorming and that kept me awake for a while. *yawn*
Bowling tonight after work - at least that'll keep me awake!!

Can you get the screen replaced/repaired?
