IT'S DUCKY


IT IS DUCKY
Thursday, January 31, 2019

  It’s “duct”, not “duck”, but ask any real man and you’ll see that he believes it to be quite ducky in its unlimited uses. A bit  of history from wikipedia, February 10, 1943: “The idea for what became duct tape came from Vesta Stoudt, an ordnance-factory worker and mother of two Navy sailors, who worried that problems with ammunition box seals would cost soldiers precious time in battle. She wrote to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1943 with the idea to seal the boxes with a fabric tape, which she had tested at her factory. The letter was forwarded to the War Production Board, who put Johnson & Johnson on the job.” And now we take the valuable ribbon for granted. (There are multiple rolls available at strategic locations in my home.)
  So what’s the point today?
  Details involving life-saving matters are important. (Song 2:15)
