to answer your question,

no.

despite what you've been told,

duct tape does not fix everything.

sidenote: for those of you who have asked and shown concern,

thank you for your genuine worry.

but unfortunately {or rather, fortunately},

this is not my car. 

i found this blue beauty in the parking lot and thought i'd share.

so while i thank you for the positive vibes, 

let's send them over to the owner of the civic 

so they can get this sucker sorted out.

but really, you kids are top-notch for caring.
