You can fix anything with Duct Tape

I'm a fan of duct tape.  You can use it to repair so many things.

I drive an older VW Golf that has some rusty spots on the back.   In the summer we had lots of rain in Calgary.  After a couple days of steady rain there was a couple inches of water in the floor on the passenger side.   The rain was getting into my car through these rust spots and pooling in the lowest point of the floor.

Duct Tape was the solution.   It doesn't look pretty but it worked in keeping out the rain.  My car has been dry through all the rain since thanks to Duct Tape.   It would have looked better if I had black tape or a silver car.
  
But my car is nothing compared to what Candi and I spotted on the drive home from work yesterday.

Using Duct Tape on a beater like mine is one thing, but the owner of this Cadillac deserves some sort of award.
    

Maybe the owner thought no one would notice because the car was silver.   
The bungee cords are a nice touch.   

I'm so glad Candi had her camera with her on the drive home.
