Such a purpose driven tie. So ...,malignant. You can almost envision the evil intent inherent in it. To put it another way, if this pattern had a number on the side of it, it would be on a NASCAR track. More; if this pattern had wheels, we'd see it at Bonneville. I couldn't catch a fish on purple if my life depended upon it, but the claret in here gives me hope...

Gobsmacked is my only word for it, Norm.
