- Duct Tape: Don't leave home without this wonderful silver stuff-it has held many a racing car together, temporarily patched a lot of canoes, patched a gash in a pickup camper across from us in Jasper (Overcooked it backing into his campsite), patched hail-damaged rv skylights ,and held a lot of our youngest son's 1982 Lada together. Red Green once even made lawn furniture out of duct tape and tomato juice cans!
  The Lada has now gone to the Cadillac Ranch, even duct tape couldn't fix the chunk of engine block that fell off on the road during a thirty below spell last January.
