I'm a USCG licensed Master Mariner, which is the fancy full flavored term for a Captain.

Hey Rookie, This is my first time in the kitchen here, I just joined two nights ago. I used to work in a freight department in the winter besides volunteering in the local fire department. In the summer I am an engine boss on a type 6 wildland rig. I am unemployed this winter for the first time in 25 years! I am rekindling some old flames since I have so much time on my hands, things I haven't done in a long time that I used to love like writing poetry, sculpting, drawing, taking a walk for enjoyment, not just exercise...I think I saw your name in another discussion I joined, did I read you were from Australia or New Zealand in there? I hear wildland is a whole different game there. Wendy

Yes you can as long as the "fastener" isn't duct tape. You aren't hoarding duct tape there are you, Anita?
