The Empire Strikes Back (a.k.a.) Long Live the Lowboy
A long time ago (2 months), in a galaxy far, far, away (around the corner from my house)...
It is a dark time for the Rebellion (unappreciated antiques). Although the Death Star (200 year old house) has been destroyed (stripped to the beams), Imperial troops (contractors) have driven the Rebel forces (goodies left from previous owner) from their hidden base (attic) and pursued them across the galaxy (threw them out for the trashman). Evading the dreaded Imperial Starfleet (home owner), a group of freedom fighters (my husband, my dogs, and my car) led by Luke Skywalker (me) have established a new secret base (my garage shop) on the remote ice world of Hoth (my house).
Okay, Okay...lol...I think you get it. I rescued a dirty, old, broken down American Empire lowboy from ending up in a landfill.

Good for you. I will have to use some of your 'schtick' to dress up my dumpster-diving stories!
