Trunk of my Subaru.

Go to any Home Depot and I presume Lowes, etc. Buy it by the dozen!

Great gift to give to the wife and kids.

Sounds like a question for Arabian's crew in the back room. :-)

If it was me on board and I had to make a snap choice, I'd say both, in
that order (the duct tape being wider).

They have transparent duct tape now.

I donno how they make the threads in the tape transparent.

I have seen TV adverts for the stuff over about the last two
weeks. I am sure it will take some time for the trucks from
Minnesota a little time to make it down to TX. But maybe things
are worse than that. Perhaps Colorado is a test market for the
stuff. If that is the case, it better pass the test market or
you will never get it.

So, to anyone that can "score" some, get a roll & ship it to OM.

Amazing! Can transparent aluminum be far behind?

Yet? I got it at Home Depot a few months ago.

Yes, in retaliation for you sending the rest of the nation your republicans.

They've got a TV ad out for the transparent duct tape by the way.

They do? What's the point. People who know they need duct tape will buy
it. Those who don't, well, I don't associate with that sort of people. :-)
