Yet another use for duct tape.
So the NASA procedural manual states that astronauts who flip their lids in space should be duct taped, and, tranquilized.
(Insert Monty Python-esque interlude here: "But, I'm not stuck yet...")
I'd like to propose that this procedure be implemented in the regular workplace, and, with out of control celebrities. I mean, why should astronauts be the only ones who get to threaten each other with this simple, yet, inexpensive method of behavior control?
Offer the paparazzi $5K for duct taping Britney Spears to her rehab center, or, have it casually sitting on your desk during an employee's performance appraisal.
You know, just in case. I've actually had people lose come unglued during evaluations, duct tape would have been nice.
OK, so it was my final input to them right before I fired them, but, whatever. Duct tape would have saved me a couple of emergency calls to security. "Stick 'em, Danno."
It hasn't made the 101 Uses for Duct Tape list yet (OK, nothing's made it since 1999, work with me here), but, nothing can top #247, anyway.
Poor man's Viagra, heh.

I know the value of a roll of duct tape... being both a good rednecked girl and a avid surfer... there is nothing in this world you can not do with this miracle product.
If not for duct tape we would not have made it to the moon and the entire infrastructure of the Southern United States, from the power and water distribution systems to the transportation system would collapse.
It is a well known fact that if they had duct tape on the Titanic, the movie would have not been nearly as interesting. Kate and Leo would have just whipped out their trusty silver rolls and fixed the leaks, with Jack saying "it never lets go Rose, it never lets go."
Here in Ohio, we know the value of duct tape. Make your summer vacation plans now folks. It's Father's Day weekend.

What does NASA recommend for astronauts who flip their lids in Orlando?

Did Billy Bob Thornton use this in "The Astronaut Farmer"?
RE: #247 - redefines the term "stickey wicket"
Hey, I'm new here, but....did anyone hear about the teacher in Miami who literally taped out of control students to their chairs? This was scandal. One of the better public schools in Miami-Dade County (and that's not saying much). I've helped out in many a classroom and think this method brilliant!
