Tape costs 99 cents at the office supply. And now you want to charge $19.00 for S&H?
What exorbitant profits!

Does the President's pay CZAR know how much ya'll are makin' here?

I mean there are kids starving in the streets and Tom is just sitting there rakin' in the dough.

OK put me down for 1... but I want to pick it up to avoid the S&H
Have you began talks with a supplier yet?
I'm a little queasy about putting on the Crossfire dash, but Peggy really likes her coffee.

 

LAUGHED SO HARD I FELL OUT OF MY CHAIR >> I BELIEVE WOODY COULD ADAPT A PIECE OF NAVEL LINT AND GIVE IT A TECH. TERM.

 

HERE'S SOMETHING TO ENJOY WITH YOUR MORNING COFFEE ,,
SHE THINKS THE CUP HOLDER IDEA IS FANTASTIC.

 

I dont want to get stuck up about this but I have to ask the group, do you think that Tom is trying to roll his fellow crossfire members?? Most of us are Pressure sensitive anyway and that sort of thing would be tacky.

I am not one to duck my responcibilities, didnt what to dash off a posting but felt that I had to stick with it and ask the question. THis is not sticky material even if it does looks like 100mph tape material.

Duct tape is a vinyl, fabric-reinforced, multi-purpose pressure sensitive tape with a soft and tacky pressure sensitive adhesive. It is generally silver or black in color but many other colors have recently become available. With a standard width of 1+7⁄8 inches (48 mm), duct tape was originally developed during World War II in 1942 as a water resistant sealing tape for ammunition cases. This is when it was first created, as duck tape, due to the revolutionary waterproof features; it is still commonly referred to by this name.[1][2] Permacel, then a division of Johnson & Johnson, used a rubber-based adhesive to help the tape resist water and a fabric backing to add strength. It was also used to repair military equipment quickly, including jeeps, firearms, and aircraft because of these properties.
In military circles, this variant is known as "gun-tape", typically olive-green, and also known for its resistance to oils and greases. It is also called "Riggers Tape", "Hurricane Tape", or "100-MPH tape",[3] - a name that comes from the use of a specific variety of duct tape that was supposed to hold up to 100 mph winds. Another version attributes this to the fact that soldiers often refer to something that exceeds expectations as "High Speed."
In Germany the tape is also known as "Panzertape" (tank-tape), a name which emphasizes its general toughness.

Navel lint

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Jump to: navigation, search

Green navel lint.


Navel lint, or more commonly belly button lint, belly button fluff, button lint or navel fluff, is an accumulation of fluffy fibres in one's navel.
Many people find that, at the beginning and end of the day, a small lump of fluff has appeared in the navel cavity. The reasons for this have been the subject of idle speculation for many years but in 2001, Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki of the University of Sydney, Australia, undertook a systematic survey to determine the ins and outs of navel lint. His primary findings were as follows:[1]

• Navel lint consists primarily of stray fibers from one's clothing, mixed with some dead skin cells and strands of body hair.
• Contrary to expectations, navel lint appears to migrate upwards from underwear rather than downwards from shirts or tops. The migration process is the result of the frictional drag of body hair on underwear, which drags stray fibers up into the navel.
• Women experience less navel lint because of their finer and shorter body hairs. Conversely, older men experience it more because of their coarser and more numerous hairs.
• Navel lint's color appears in a characteristic blue-grey. The color is most likely an average of all clothing colors worn.[2]
• The existence of navel lint is entirely harmless, and requires no corrective action.

Dr. Kruszelnicki was awarded the Ig Nobel Prize for Interdisciplinary Research in 2002,[3] presented for "achievements that cannot or should not be repeated".
Graham Barker of Perth, Western Australia, is in the Guinness Book of Records as the record holder for collecting navel lint. He has been collecting navel lint almost every day for over 20 years since 17 January 1984. He collects about 3.03 mg per day. Contrary to the research of Dr. Kruszelnicki, his lint was in a particular shade of red[4] for six years and then turned green, correlating with a change of his bath towels from red to green.[5]

See what you can get started?

Woody with too much snow in Virginia, calling for 20 to 30 inches..............Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

Thanks Woody. Something I didn't know and can now add to my list of desertations that will annoy my friends and make them leave.

This will save me gallons of beer.
Many thanks Woodrow.

Well Tom, you sold me. Great presentation at dinner last night. Put me down for three, just in case "Peggy" joins us in our Honda one evening.
Just to save on shipping, I'm willing to make the 2 hr. round trip to your assembly plant in PA.
By the way, are you looking for investor's? This looks like it could be something BIG! I just want to get in on it while it's still on the "ground floor".

 

She works in my company. Thankfully not where I work.

 

You have time for work?

 

Jeeze, wonder if AHNOLD THE GOV. has met this beast--yuuko

 

OK,man, so who makes the EXAMPLE, GM, Ford, maybe Chrysler-is it Japanese?

 

Looking at the Topic of the posting and then looking at the picture could lead you (me) to think : "Well, he just drives his other vehicle when he has a cup that needs holding!!??" (As evidenced by the picture of the non-Crossfire dash) Or maybe I've just done too many crossword puzzles that make you come up with multiple options before you make a final decision !!

 

OK, in light of the success of my Cupholder mod, I'm offering a new product line: NAV for those without the NAV enabled stereo:

 

Is there a boxed set for gift-giving? I think my hubby would LOVE these in his black-on-black Chevy Impala SS. Seems like a guy thing. And do you have these for motorcycles?

 

I think Accellerated Industries best beware with Tom's new idea's coming to the fore front....he's now inventing on a weekly or is that weakly basis....OH RUDY...bet you haven't invented anything like this.....RUDY!

 

Accessorizing the Mini already ??
