As obsessions go, that sounds like a safe one. You mentioned duct tape. Not sure if that was literal duct tape because if you haven’t tried it there’s a Gorilla Glue version that’s incredible. It’s what Red Green would be using today.
Hope I get to see it this year. Is it located in Glens Falls or Queensbury? I’d like to know where it is but I don’t think you should tell your location.
Well, Ken, everyone has a weakness. Unfortunately, yours is an expensive habit to get into. But I guess it's okay as long as your wife loves you all the more for it. It's probably not as dangerous as compulsive gambling, binge and purge eating, or swimming in the Erie Canal when the temperature dips below 8 degrees. Have you had to build a bigger garage to store your blow up yard ornaments yet?
That's awesome! Keep it going!
Loved your writing of your rare indulgence. I can't resist to point out your love of things full of hot air. Merry Christmas Ken.
Got me there.

Too much damage for glue.
He's talking about "Gorilla Glue" BRAND DUCT Tape. It is just like Duct tape but it is really really sticky.
Gotcha! Still too much damage.
That was a perfectly delightful description of the UPS and DOWNS of blow-up holiday balloons in the Tingley household....LOL
Perfect metaphor.
water bottle
we sometimes
think
of things as friends
and in the abstract
they are
like a waterbottle
representing a history
of reminiscences
sips after shoveling
a snowfall
caged to my bike
on trails around
the adirondacks
sitting on the bluffs
in moab watching
the sunset
dropped in a parking garage
in ottawa on a getaway
and those intimate moments
with a lover
those are the memories
we drink from
