True of the girls selling the stuff too. Ya they want to sell stuff,
but they just love helping out a fashion blind man such as me. Never
hurts to ask for help picking colours.   ;)

I had a pink '67 Beetle. It was REALLY exotic. Har har. That colour
lasted for like 2 seconds. (as did the Beetle. "Rrrrrrchhh!  Flip!
Thud!") Prior to the Thud, it was promptly spray bombed black. I kept
some of the pink for "pin stripes". Likely creative hindsight, but I'm
pretty sure all the girls liked the pink pinstripes.    ;)

Sudhir: don't pick #8. It seems to promote really poor posture!
