Shop Class: [1/18]

Upon entering the classroom, you will find that Mac is buried under a mess of wires from the main console that he is apparently trying to fix.

On the blackboard is today's assignment:

"Please write a 100 word essay identifying some of the unique uses and qualities of duct tape."

[OOC: Feel free to use the regular shop equipment to work on any personal projects you might have when you are done with your essay]

Something twitched in the back of Xander's head. He worried about Zanagi-demon larvae for a second, but a quick smacking of each ear and the lack of anything falling out the other side reassured him that it had been purely metaphorical twitching. Oh yeah, he'd done this assignment before. Kinda.

Opening his thing that was totally not a Trapper Keeper because it was the kind that came with collegerule paper inside and didn't have pictures of Menudo on it, Xander dug through his old Journalism assignments for half an hour looking for that post in Spider's memories wtfwtfwtf a second, and dug out this.

Well... he really couldn't improve on the statement. But just so it was kind of a new essay, he changed one thing.

Everybody knows about the Handyman's Secret Weapon. What everybody doesn't know is what you can do with no duct tape. With a complete lack of duct tape-- which by the way you can get hold of really cheaply what with it costing nothing-- you can control Murphy's Law. Try it. Give away every roll you own, and watch items that have held together for decades collapse under the vacuum created by lack of duct tape. Need to chop up Grandma's old oak bureau for kindling but don't want to break a sweat? Just toss all the duct tape. Abra cadabra.
