okay okay. so some time ago I decided - or rather was talked into - getting some Vogels in baby calf. Lord smite me down for that decision! I am at a big A show and half-way through the course, my boot falls down. Truly, the boot was now jockey height!! And my lovely sock for all to see. I pull it up outside the ring - bam, it falls down to ankle height. I have more showing so I grab the duct tape and wrap it around my boot (with leg inside). But crikey, a fashion plate I am not, so I borrow electrical tape and wrap that over the duct tape. Rode the rest of the show that way - but when I pulled off the tape at the end, leather came with it…waaaah.
Duct tape cannot serve as a functional cast for a broken leg on a goose. (yes, someone did attempt to do this…)
Well, i’m with Duffy and brilyntrip… and in addition to being disgusting, they must be SOOOO embarassing!! OMG I would just die if it was me!!
Second… I have thought about it and can’t figure out exactly how the duct tape is applied as an… ahem “cleavage enhancer”. Could anyone PLEASE e-mail me and explain in a little more detail??? Not that I want to try it or anything… hehehe. But like ErinB said I dunno if it will work when you start with NOTHING.

That picture reminds me of the Price is Right when the woman came on stage in a shudder tube top. She got excited, jumped up and down, and guess what fell out. 
(Hey, I don’t think I’d EVER try that hard to catch a bouquet of flowers! )
i have been laughing out myself sick for over an hour now. the duct tape idea for perky breasts is a good one. the shape i’m in, the only thing good about droopy ones is that they pull the wrinkles out of your face.
Heidi, I am laughing here… Tried those sticky wing things once and it hurt so much to pull them off my skin. So you’re saying duct tapes works and is LESS painful to pull off or just that it works?
Thanks for the tips, heidi, I can use all the help I can get.

I will never, never, wax there again. I had a very traumatic “do it yourself” experience as a teen and am phobic about it. Lets just say I didn’t read the directions well enough and leave it at that. Gillette Trac 2 for me.
I know what pic you’re talking about! I’ll see if it will let me post it! LMAO! It’s not for the faint of heart! SUZ
I hope this girl is not upset. There’s no need. As everyone can tell by these posts, we women can appreciate her use of duct tape, and also commiserate with having done something silly for the sake of “beauty.” Besides, if anyone has her name, she’s probably getting a million requests for a date, because she’s very pretty. Both girls are…and the guys look like drunk buffoons in the picture. I pity them–not the girl! (She has nothing to be ashamed abut…all she did was give a feminine secret away to the world.)
Oh, and I tried those little paste up things under a dress I wore two years ago. I, too, got a rash and thought they were AWFUL! Never again…with them. I think I’ll do the duct tape thing next time…AFTER doing the carpet thing.
Thanks heidi, I will always remember your advice!! hehehe
See, I TOLD my mom the internet was useful!!!

that’s why you must see the picture in the dressage forum!
Can you just hear the photographer making this decision,
“Should I tell her…Nah, what’s a little humiliation. Where’s the yearbook editor?”
“The older I get, the better I used to be.”
Uh, you guys, I hate to say this but you are supposed to use MASKING tape to tape up boobies!!! I was in the business for years and that is what everybody used. It is even sort of light skin colored. It doesn’t hurt to take off either. And yes, your right, it goes under the boobs not over the nipples.
I actually have a funny masking tape story. One new model didn’t know how but didn’t want any help taping up hers and went into the bathroom to do it herself. We all heard the sound of tons of tape coming off the roll. It turns out that she wrapped the tape around and around her body to keep them pushed up. Unfortunately she couldn’t really breath either, we had to cut slits down the back and sides for her. I heard that taking it off was a little uncomfortable. That’s a lot of tape!
First of all,I am trying to picture how I would tape my fallen buddies! but…pulling th etape off WOW how loud can you scream???
And as to the waxing FOHGETABOUDIT!!!DONT DO IT DONT WANT TO!!
As a 20 something year old tried it and please try to imagine the wax hardenin g getting cold an dI still could not bring myself to just pull!! never ever again ! what god put there he putthere for a reason girls!
Velvet, I was referring to the thong picture for my eeeeewwwwiiiicccckkkk post!
Believe it or not, I have used those half-moon pasties when wearing a dress that I couldn’t wear a bra under. Unfortunately, the type party we were going to was not fully explained to me…hehehe
I’d bet she still received a lot of proposals.
Oh yes, just thought of another use for duct tape. When in the third trimester, a most lovely time when one’s belly button pops out, cover with a small strip of duct tape - or band aid.

Hopefully this isn’t too x-rated for Erin I recently got a joke email which looked very, very real with a picture of a girl at a college sorority formal. She used duct tape to enhance her cleavage. However the duct tape was hanging out of the dress!!!
The email was:
Formal dress: $120.00
Dinner and drinks before formal: $80.00
Having a picture passed around on the internet that shows you duct taped your boobs together to achieve cleavage: PRICELESS
I won’t post the picture because I think the poor girl has been embarrassed enough. All I have to say is OUCH!!!
