I own a hardware store...I haven't sold any duct tape today, but I have sold some plastic.

Remember to buy the expensive 6 mil plastic...

You will also be needing a box of nails, and some dust masks.

How 'bout them rabbit-feet keychain thingies you hardware-store guys (bless you) have next to the cash registers? Did Ridge say we'd be needing any of those?

And what about the Tootsie Rolls in the bucket next to the rabbit-feet keychain thingies? Necessary for The War on Terrorism? Sure hope so. I wanna be prepared.

Going to the hardware store on Saturday is sorta like going to church for some of us.

This is the funniest thread I've read here on FR in a many a moon. I don't know anything about duct tape and water though. Probably got a couple of rolls around the house somewhere but haven't used it except for emergency situations on the car. And being from the South, I only drink three things, Sundrop, Cheerwine, and sweet tea. I probably haven't drunk a glass of water on purpose in years. But when I did go tonight to pick up a Cheerwine, I noticed the water aisle was flat empty
