...and then Baby Bear says "someone's been sitting in MY chair, and broke it!!"


Here I am, innocently surfing moparts while watching the tube with the evetS family, when I recline back a bit further, and Further, and FURTHER. Azz over teakettle goes me, much to the merriment of the family.

Turns out a bolt had given up the ghost on this nearly new (18 years is just a small stitch in time, right?) recliner. One new bolt later, and I am back in business. I think someone LARGER than I sitting in my chair is to blame. Can't decide if this "Goldilocks" is my wife's Chihuahua or my son (who I outweigh by about 75 pounds).

That's my story, and I'll be sticking to it (once it's perfected).

I hope after such a mysterious adventure you were able to sit down and relax.



And by the way...did you inspect the bolt for why it failed? Perhaps rust? Was your chair used in a salty environment lately?


(Such as eating on it. )
