Ah so. Makes sense.
I thought it was like a chamois cloth or something for getting rid of the damp. And I thought smurf was from down under. Maybe it was the reference to the drought that confused me. I need some coffee. |

I think he is referring to those containers of Calcium Chloride that you purchase in a supermarket, and place in a cupboard, or a place in your house that suffers from moisture. The crystals absorb water molecules (they are hygroscopic), from the surrounding air. Damp Rid is made in the USA, BTW.

I pulled out of my garage one morning but forgot to put the door up. Crunch. My honda was OK, but the garage door, not so much.

I dunno sometimes the door is kinda open when I pull out of the driveway, and most of the time I'm not so close to the basketball hoop and all the time I don't have a milkshake occupying me. I was just unlucky and dumb.

Maybe you should close the door and buckle up before you turn the key?

But what about getting rid of that pesky excess water weight?
And as a bonus, you could wipe with a feather duster!

Yeah...I was a bit confused about smurf for a bit too...specially since the side bit thingy says somewhere other than Australia.
