a new use for duct tape....

so i come home from work.....michelle says there's a piece of tape with a "critter" under it above the kitchen doorway.
i look up and there it is.
she didn't want to kill it so she taped it to the wall, when i peeled up the tape there was a little spider crawling away.......then i explained how you don't need the tape in this application and smashed it.

low light phone pic......

go get a stuffed animal (cat) and duct tape it to the floor - it will be in the same shape of her cat. What a great trick to play on her! I swear I would laugh my arse off just trying to set it up!

of course, you may not see the "other cat" for awhile after such a stunt but it would almost be worth it to see her expression.

I think the Oscars would hang very easily from the wall with duct tape...
