At first glance I thought those rubber pants were on toddlers, the patterns look like for kids. But then I realized...nope!

I just clicked on your Indy 500 Special and nearly laughed myself to death. You are so creative, Miriam.

Ironically the numbers don't match. It's a 66 but the manual is for a 15. Busted!

I caught a bit of one of those "Storage Wars" shows last night.
As they go through the crap in the locker they just bought they reel off "values".
That's where the real comedy is in those shows.
I was reminded of that when I saw this.
"Here we go! Dem old Sewin' machines ...collectors go crazy for 'em. I'm gonna get $1,000 for that one"
