the same basic paint
that's used by NASA...

on the nose and body
of the space shuttle.

That was back in '89,
I believe it was.
:14:26
At that time
I was still in school.
:14:29
I just remember coming home--
"What is this big box
in the front yard?"
:14:37
"Well,
it's an electric chair. "
:14:39
"Oh. "
:14:44
Fred and my uncle were here.
:14:46
They'd come out
with the crowbars.
:14:49
They had to break the box open,
unscrew all the parts.
:14:52
There was an electric chair
sitting in the front yard.
:14:58
It was very unusual,
something I wasn't expecting.
:15:01
I guess Fred
was expecting it.
[ Laughs ]
:15:08
It was very difficult
getting up and down
those stairs...
:15:11
with a couple hundred-pound
piece of oak chair.
:15:17
Of course, before we even
brought it inside, had to
have Fred sit down in it.
:15:20
Strapped him in--
[ Laughs ]
:15:23
I said,
"No, thanks. "

I had processed
a couple of rolls of film,
:15:42
photos that I took
for engineering purposes--
:15:45
detail stuff,
so you'd know how it looked
before you took it apart.
:15:50
I went through it and said,
"What the hell's this?"
:15:58
We had a magnifier
and we were trying to
figure out what was there.
