If you have double jointed rearview mirror, is your arm between the two pivots pointing down? If so, try swinging it up as much as possible, then adjust the mirror using the pivot right behind it. Thank me latercanuckland -
Botch said:Okay, here’s a query: What’s the longest you’ve waited in line to buy tickets for an event?
For me, it was three days. Iowa State U, local radio station had an Announcement to make at 1 pm. Finally! The Who were coming to ISU for a concert! We quickly asked around our coed dorm floor, got 30 commitments, and sent three to the concert hall to wait in line (I was one of them).
They had a neat queuing system: after the first lineup, we were all given a numbered ticket, and we could each buy 10 tickets at the final lineup. Every 6 hours we all had to get back in line, and were given a new ticket, different color, with our corresponding number. As long as we were there to get back into line for the new ticket, we were guaranteed 10 tix on the final day, per person.
My dorm floor quickly arranged a rotation program, replacing each “placeholder/guy in line” with a new person, every 12 hours. As long as you showed up for the new ticket, every 6 hours, you kept your place in line.
NOW, the 12 hours between rotations: WOW, what a party! Bands spontaneously set up, pizzas were constantly delivered, tents set up, beer brought by dorm floor friends not on rotation, and a certain herb smoke was quite thick and aromatic (this concerned me a bit, as I was there on a full-ride ROTC scholarship with random drug testing, the concert itself was in a similar “atmosphere”). I understand there were also deep piles of elicit sex, but being a freshman engineer nerd reeking of Clearasil, I simply “understood”.
We got half the second row and half the third row, stage right, right in front of Pete Townsend. The guitar players from the dorm floor were going nuts; Pete had NINE Les Pauls on stands, each clearly marked with white tape, all set to a different tuning; Wow! This was their first concert without Keith Moon, but they just killed.
The whole process was hella fun, and I’ll always remember it.fukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it -
I have no idea about the double jointed mirror but a double jointed romper room partner...
I have never been so lucky!Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -

Also, as most vehicles these days already have rear backup cams installed and many cars already have a variety of sensors at the front of the vehicle for braking/lane-keeping features adding a cam for video seems a trivial thing.
The problem with aftermarket dashcams is that they're a PITA to deal with and most folks won't want the hassle. Integrating them into the vehicle at the factory seems a no brainer to me.“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” ― Philip K. Diçk -

I’d read, somewhere a long time ago, that if you pulled a fish thru the water backwards, its gills wouldn’t work and it would drown. I’d rather tuna piano than drown a fish, so I’ve never tried it.___________"When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set."
