This is not quite as crazy as the major airport I once flew with that did not sell gum, but it's up there.
Singapore?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Dublin airport doesn't sell gum. They were sick of cleaning it off tables and floors.

What's wrong with them?
I'm guessing TimTams are not Kiwi enough, sigh. But I had great plans to buy a case (or at least several boxes), and saved my cash to do so, and ended up flying home with $10NZ in my pocket instead. Sigh.
Want TimTams! We only found the Tia Maria ones once, but they were awesome.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Lee, you should switch the duct tape out for a corset.
Hmm. I have to admit I'm tired of never being able to get the tape gunk off.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Goo Gone. It's wonderful stuff. Only if you don't want to switch to a corset.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
No reason you can't make a corset out of duct tape.
A friend of mine did precisely this. She used plastic boning that was also from the hardware store. I helped her hammer in the grommets. It looked darn good. (She did use a corset she already owned as a pattern.)

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Singapore?
No. I honestly can't remember for sure where it was, but I know it was in the US--Orlando, maybe?

A friend of mine made her prom dress out of duct tape and black and white photographs she had taken.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
FRANKENBUDDHA-- I ruptured my spleen in a sledding accident when I was 12, so don't have one. As organs go, it's pretty expendable. It holds damaged blood cells in reserve, so it comes in handy with serious illness. I got extra sick with mono because of my spleenless state, and I have to have a couple of extra immunizations every five years. Other than that and the big honking scar on my belly, no difference.

Whoops - came back to move my post but it was gone. About what Robin said, though.
