[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 379366, member: 4264"] I didn't know you could get anything other than black duct tape! Totally neat, I will have to order some nifty stocking stuffers for my S/O. But ... did someone just get a curse past the board censor? I swear someone said (Shh - Gorilla tape). It is a four letter word for me ever since last night! My S/O is terrific and handy and loves taking care of the house and yard etc, doesn't procrastinate etc. Yet this past couple of weeks his avionics course has taken a turn in the direction of INSANE course load. So at night he's been bringing home all manner of things to build a entire cockpit comm system from scratch. I've bugged him for a while now to please take the time to remove the a/c window units since we are getting day around 8 degrees celcius and evenings/overnight very cool. I'm missing out on opening the windows for fresh air etc. Anyhow, I couldn't cope last night, needed to air out the living room. So I decide to remove the living rooms a/c unit myself. Imagine my surprise to discover the blasted thing was completely ringing with gorilla tape? After months being able to cure and seal into place, one would need the strength of 10 men to pry this stuff off and that a/c was NOT moving until all trace of that tape was gone! ARGH! Of course it was during the big brother finale on t.v. so I was more annoyed. The upside was that after my grunting, groaning and heaving and pulling and a few curses tossed in (for guilt purposes), S/O looked up for soldering some wire contraption and gasped out a : Hey!!
