I took my Lonely Planet book to work and asked our Technical Service department could reenfornce the binding and cover it in plastic.

Libby, with all your upgrades, your "remodeled" LP should command a hefty premium on the resale sites.

Libby you ARE a geek! Big Grin But then you're a librarian....it's not like you have a choice. Wink (No wonder you have most excellent taste in books!)

But I do have to offer a tooltime high-five to Mike who should be cleaning my windows this spring.

Duct Tape and Sharpies. God's gifts to "fixits". I just used a sharpie this morning to try to "hide" a tiny bleachdrop stain in an otherwise perfectly good dark shirt. Forgot to check it post-laundry to see if it "held". I have high hopes though.

Sharpies are great, but the real deal is Duct tape and WD-40.

If it is supposed to move and doesn't, WD-40.

If it moves and it shouldn't, duct tape.

What more could a person ask for? Smile

Libby, i love that post about duct tape (or gaffer tape as we call it) and WD40.

As a musician i wouldn't consider going to a gig without some gaffer tape. I ahve seen whole rigs held together with it. Big Grin

Duct tape is one of the wonders of the world. I don't know if we would be able to function without it. Seriously! Big Grin
