Looks like her dress and the chair are using the same color pattern fabric.

 

I miss doing the "ten minute tuneup" in the K-Mart parking lot.

 

Back in the early 80s down at Camp Lejuene one night ,, I was going to see a buddy on Lejuene,, I got pulled over by a female MP for speeding . I had a few beers ,, but was sober. Her boss showed up ,, a Gnry Sgt. searched me ,, found my pocket knife,, which had a blade longer than the allowed 3 inches,, asked why I had it ,, I said I'm riding a Harley ,, I'm always having to adjust my carburetor,,, he asked why I didn't just carry a screwdriver?? I said ,, if your worried about me using the knife as a weapon ,,,, I said I could ,, but then I'd be carrying a screwdriver,, 8-10 inches long ,, that could be an even better weapon .
But yes sir ,,, I was always having to adjust the carb on that old shovelhead .

 

When my Navy ship was preparing to leave for our six month Med/IO deployment from NorVa, I had to go from the ship onto base for some reason, work related. A Navy Master-At-Arms saw my Buck knife in my belt pouch, as I always carried it. Four inch blade. He confiscated it! I had to get back to my ship. I told my Seniorchief about it, and bless him, he went right down to the MAA building, got my knife back and gave that errant MAA some good old-fashioned Navy invective, as only a grizzled senior NCO can. Seniorchief Neil K. Normandin, RIP. We'd all have stormed the gates of Hell and kicked the Devil out, if he ordered us to. "Old Navy" in the best way.
