What place does duct tape have at Prom?

People have been doing fascinating things with duct tape for a little over 60 years.  Did you know, for instance, that it can cure warts?

Perhaps more interesting, each year the Duck company has a competition called “Stuck at Prom” where creative High Schoolers can land scholarship money for the most creative Prom dress or Tuxedo created from the sticky stuff.  My friend Laura Turley decided to enter:

This is 100% duct tape, not just tape covering a jacket or dress.  If you like what you see then you can vote for their entry, #3087.

Perhaps this has inspired you to create something interesting using the miracle adhesive.  If so then here's a Wiki that can get you started.
