Early last month, the retardos, determined to extend the enjoyment of their one season porch through the winter, decided to "insulate" it against the harsh elements.
Mr Retardo chose to utilize last years left over 1/16th mm thick INDOOR insulation film.
Gee honey, do you think it will hold against the winter winds?
I'm pretty sure it will, says Mr R.
OK......
Mr Retardo hard at work installing the film:
The tape is placed on the frames and the film applied. Hours are spent laboriously blow drying the film to a tight seal that looks remarkably like glass.
Finally, come nightfall, the job is finished.
Isn't it beautiful they exclaim.
Two weeks later, 35 mph gale winds rip through like a cylone, creating an indoor mini tornado of film.
The devastating destruction was heart wrenching.
The Retardos claimed the weather siren did not go off and there were no weather alerts to warn them of the impending doom. Luckily, they were downstairs when the event occurred and so were able to escape bodily harm.
Friends, neighbors and other do gooders have set up a fund to help with clean up and repairs. Donations can be given at Sinkhole.org.
