Default Yeah I was going to mention Ho Depot

Head to the roofing section in Home Depot. They have this stuff thats basically the same thats used to insulate shingles on a roof.

Its also much cheaper.

Default No, you want roofing underlayment

It comes in a roll and you want the kind that is peel and stick. Obviously you do not want the kind that must be nailed in place. Unless you are the type that polishes head ports with a bag of sand. Ask in the roofing deparment, they'll know what you mean if you ask for underlayment, unless they are the sand polishing type.

Default I love the G-Men

Like many Connecticut natives I'm a hybrid Giants/Red Sox fan because of our parents. Patriots weren't around yet when I was born. Jimmy, you're a BU guy I can like.
