Okay everyone... what should I name my 'new' gal?
What was the name of the person that did not get the machine? Maybe call her that? You will love this machine!
Nancy
Gosh, I don't know who the other person was...
In thinking about the war time history... I thought of maybe calling her "Rosie" after the famous "Rosie the Riveter" War Effort posters. But then I thought about one of Bob Hope's female sidekicks of USO fame: singer Frances Langford. Frances Langford went on to marry the heir to Evenrude (I think) engines and settled here in Florida, not to far away from where my husband and I live. Francis... eh hem.... or "Ms Langford"???? Francis Langford was known for having that elusive quality called, "class". Well, this machine has a touch of class too... or she will after I get her cleaned up.
