My box of mini footholds for our climbing wall arrived from MountainGear and there was a Christmas catalogue in the box. I got a real kick out of their duct tape wallet and think I'll order one.

They're also selling an 'Extreme Ironing' calendar. The cover show someone on a peak toiling over an ironing board. Too funny. I have been losing patience with the fad of calling just about anything 'extreme' and this calendar obviously pokes fun at this practice.

I also scored 25 issues of 'Outside' for US 25$. The offer was in my mail box with a pre-paid envelope and I couldn't resist it.

If any of you guys have seen the 'Red Green Show' you'll know we Canucks are real suckers for duxct tape (God on a roll).

That show is great! I liked the one where they started the unemployment pyramid scheme where they were hiring each other and passing around the money. LOL!

You mean that was supposed to be funny? I thought it was a documentary on Canada. (LOL)

I just Googled 'extreme ironing' and they have 141 000 entries.

I musta been in a coma for the last while.

I LOVE RED/GREEN! OK, well I love the show.
One of my favorites is when they built their own limosine. Or the one where they heated the driveway to avoid shoveling.

Just remembering it makes me laugh! I don't watch enough tv to know when it's on anymore. :-(

I came in half way through one project. He was going to build a boat rack for the car but reasoned that it would be more aerodinamic UNDER the car. So he put these great big tractor ties on the car to give clearance. Well sense the tractor tires are on the car and the boats under the car; might as well put paddles on the tires. LOL!
