I'll wager that truck driver had to pull off the highway to change into his brown corduroy trousers.
Reminds me of a naval story...
In 1807, Captain Hornblower on the 38-gun frigate HMS Lydia, sailing the Caribbean seas when they spotted a lone French ship. Before the battle began, the captain shouted, "Bring me my red shirt!" It was a long fight but the captain and his men were victorious. The next day three more French ships appeared. The captain cried, "Bring me my red shirt!" and they proceeded to defeat the three French ships. Later on, as the crew was resting and tending to their wounds, an Ensign asked the captain why he always wore that red shirt. The captain replied "I wear the red shirt so that if I'm wounded, no one will see the blood. That way everyone will continue to fight on unafraid." The Ensign was greatly moved by this display of courage.
The next day, a fleet of ten French ships were spotted. The men looked to their captain, waiting for his command. Calm as ever, the captain cried out, "Bring me my brown pants."
