Alaskan clothing story...
Two seasons ago I see this guy in dirty Careharts stepping off of his boat a few slips away from mine. He looks somehow familiar.
So I say hi, introduce myself and say he looks familiar. He says I look familiar as well. I ask him if he works in the oil field since se see allot of people up there and see them elsewhere and kinda recognize them.
He says no, he's an orthodontist. Then a light turns on in his head as he looks at the name on my boat "lisa's way". He asks if my wife is Lisa, and he smiles and says he did my wifes braces several years before.
So (and back to the clothes thing here) I look at him in dirty Careharts and I laugh, telling him how he doesn't look much like an orthodontist. Then I still laughing tell him how he ruined my impression of orthodontists forever. He asks why...
So I tell him how he's here in dirty Careharts and I thought orthodontists were mostly pussy types who do things like build ships in a bottle.
He responds "yea, I guess I'm different. I just got done rebuilding my marine transmission on my saloon table, I guess I'm an Alaskan orthodontist"
Amen Brother!
