Re: pic: Andy Baker joins team Bar-Lok
Wouldn't that more appropriately be "Bahhhh-Lok" up your way Grady? Seems to me like this conversation, with all of its history/pathology, can easily be explained with three simple facts:
1. This is a Kleenex/tissue debate
2. New Englanders usually misname and mispronounce things, we just accept it.
3. They're Zip-Ties anyway!!!

Re: pic: Andy Baker joins team Bar-Lok
It looks like Andy's got a little bit of the Mick Jagger pout thing going on with that "lower lip" of his.

Did you give him that "25' Wicked Awesome 9-Pin Male-to-Female D-Subminiature Serial Communication Facilitator" as well????

Re: pic: Andy Baker joins team Bar-Lok
It was so much fun to finally pull this off. I've meant to bring a bag for years, but always forgot until this year.

Now 7ish years worth of debates are over!
Thanks for being a good sport, Baker.

Zip-ties, or at worst, cable ties (THE BAG EVEN SAYS CABLE TIES!!! )
Bar-loks? No way!

Re: pic: Andy Baker joins team Bar-Lok
I come from CT and I buy my Zip Ties at Tag Sales and on the way home I stop somewhere & eat a Grinder and drink some Soda.

End of story.

You are supposed to ignore that part on the bag that says cable ties. They are in fact BAR-LOKS!

Darn you people are stubborn!

Re: pic: Andy Baker joins team Bar-Lok
A Bar Lock is what you use to keep them out of the booze.

Now why does it say that on the bag of zip ties Andy is holding ?

Well, this is the first I've ever heard of this debate. (First I've ever heard of "Bar-Lok", for that matter. ) If this were a poll, I would vote "zip tie".

Edit: I just did a quick search for a poll but didn't find one, we must be slipping.
