Looking for tips to rain-proof Christmas light connections

Hello, Every year we struggle with rain water getting into the connectors between each set of our outdoor Christmas lights. The best performance I’ve gotten so far is to Frankenstein each connection with ziploc bags and duct tape, but even that wasn’t perfect.

I thought maybe some folks here would have advice and tips on how you manage to keep the lights on through the rain.

Thanks!

What to Smoke Wednesday (I’m numb inside edition)

I feel like I’ve said this a lot lately, but I’m just not sure I can remember a more trying time as a Houston sports fan. Yes, there’s been lean years and heartaches, but I feel like for the last few months I’ve just been Deshaun on the bench at the end of Sunday’s game. Between our turmoil here and what’s going on with Harden and of course all the Astros s**t, I just feel kind of numb.

I wasn’t going to make this thread because I just wasn’t feeling it, and there’s been reduced participation in them because, well, everything going on. But, this is also one of the few things that has given me joy on this site for the last few months, and even if one other person enjoys it as much as I do its enough for me to want to keep going.

So, with all that being said, I’M FINALLY DOING ANOTHER GOD DAMN BRISKET! My birthday is Friday so I’m actually taking off work and doing it then. My parents bought part of a cow and gave me the brisket over Thanksgiving, its actually a smaller one but I think it’s got some good fat striation so I’m stoked about it.

Also, for the other thing people think these threads are about, I’ve recently been toking on the Mag Landrace strain for a couple weeks and it’s so damn good. Really fantastic indica, even at lower percentages (batch I have is like 13% THC) it packs a punch and delivers a really great and relaxing high.
