who did a much better job than I, but my son was insistent,
so we cobbled it together in 30 minutes by using the thin
packing tape rather than duct tape.

The clincher, though, was the plastic spray, which really
brought it all together.

He immediately emailed photos as proof. While we applaud you're creative use of this product, our lawyers are begging us to say that we generally don't recommend any process that involves putting plastic bags over anyone's heads!

If not, even with the "breathing holes" disclaimer, I hereby award you the "Comment most likely to result in a reply from Child Protective Services award"! I'm pretty sure we're going to need a link to a photo, or else it didn't happen. Assen, your son and I are counting on your comment being a joke.

And to think I had no idea who Armus was. Now I'm not going to be in that shameful majority not hip to all this at my next party. Plus I love how tar monsters speak very acceptable English!
