Re: Doc's Shark Tank
OK, so digging down into the tool box, my wife found Gorilla Glue. That should work, right? I am not sure how sparingly it to use it as it seems to expand, but I am hopeful it will do the trick!!!

Gorilla glue will work better than super glue, IMO. Just be sure to use very very little, because you're right, it will puff up.

Yeah, let's not get ahead of ourselves. I think I will be doing the switch tomorrow and then we can see... total happiness or... disaster!

Is it like root beer in that it will reduce the foam or is that how it works... to puff and stay puffed up (hell, I feel like a douche bag asking all these stupid questions I should know the answer to. Not feeling much manliness at the moment. Maybe I should go blow something up or kill something... LOL)
