My Wife Threatened Me!

Post by lavron »

My wife said if she sees my jacket unguarded she is going to throw it away :shock:
Image

I told her to leave my jacket alone it still has some "jacket" left to it, I have worn it welding a bit too much if you were wondering why it is ventilated, I guess it is not flame resistant (it doesn't burn like a sweatshirt however).
Image

I am not too worried about her threats because that is all they are, because she said the same thing about my hat :P
Image

She is afraid to touch my hat however :lol: hopefully I can keep her away from my jacket as well, I hope it doesn't get too cold this winter or I might have to wear another jacket under this one.

See Ya,
Mike

If I saw you stumbling out of woods with that get-up on I'd say you'd been mauled by a bear. :shock: :lol: :lol:

Jees...dont walk by a soup kitchen...you maybe hustled inside. I say, wear your jacket with pride....it has history.


You know, my dad was not short of a quid when he retired....yet when he went into town he would wear old worn pants, shirt and an old woolen beanie....Most thought he was just a poor pensioner.....

When I was about 5 I dressed as a hobo for halloween now I just look that way naturally :(

I know you guys think it looks bad :? but really it is mostly there on the right side, I seem to set my left side on fire (actually the big hole was ripped somewhat before I set it on fire, it really only kinda smolders and the lining melts) I know I should invest in a welding jacket or shirt.

I gotta save my money I have a Comet to finish building :P and that Jacket is not over 11 or 12 years old, I got the hat when we bought my wife a car about 8-9+ years ago too it is my mechanic hat I wear it almost every time I work on the Comet, I would wash it but I am afraid that would ruin it :roll:

I have another hat just like that one that I got when I bought my pickup but that is my fancy go-to-town hat and it is red, I think this one used to be black. She just bought another new car a couple of weeks ago so I got another hat that is army green (same dealer) at least I get something out of her buying a car.

See Ya,
Mike

If your other jackets are like that one it may take several coats to achieve a single layer :shock:

My wife and younger daughter roll their eyes at me when I'm in the middle of a project and need to run to Lowes for parts. They seem to think I should change into something clean to be seen in public. I tell them there are tons of guys at Lowes that need parts in the middle of a project and look worse than me. Years ago, when my younger daughter was still in high school, I needed to make a Lowes run. She said, "well, pay cash." I asked why. She said if I used my card they'd know who I was. Wouldn't want to bring shame on the family name, would I? :roll:
