OT: Left hand down?

Does it display it in mirror language so you're used to the output like a mirror? If not I can imagine people turning the wrong way.

Cats are the dirtiest creatures on the planet, despite the myth. They don't bathe, they just lick, which doesn't remove fleas for example. Imagine if instead of taking a bath or shower, you just licked your finger and rubbed it on your skin. Apart from taking 100 times longer, it would be 100 times less effective.

I'm surprised your cat doesn't run off when it hears the engine. Every cat I've owned/known/seen is scared shitless of engines, especially when mine was sleeping in the actual engine bay when I started it. It's lucky it wasn't in contact with the belts.

That's because they're pathetic and can't control their surroundings. Parrots can.

Good idea!

I've never understood people not remembering which is left and right. Anyone who can write must know which hand they use? And assuming they're right handed, write, right, easy!

If someone is directing you to reverse your car into a tight space.

Things that should be fitted to bicycles.

No, it's just a camera. I always bacl into parking spaces if possible and other than the cat all I use it for is to see the concrete stops that are usually too narrow to see in the mirrors.

The cat has been curious when I'm washing my face at the bathroom sink. I've offered to scrub him down but he isn't interested.

A couple of weeks ago he managed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and I dripped some Spectracide (weed and grass killer) on his butt. He definitely didn't appreciate being held under the lawn spigot.

The cat doesn't mind the car or motorcycle. In fact he appears from someplace when I drive in. He'll lounge around on the lawn while I mowing until I get too close and then he'll go wherever he goes. He's back when the engine stops.

One of my bicycles has a mirror and I miss it when I'm riding the one without.

Makes getting the mascara right very hard

Moor since? You've developed an Aussie accent.

You keep several years of records?!

And why would you remember that? Most people remember only important things.

I don't understand the problem reversing a trailer or caravan. Everyone could turn the trailer themselves if they had a hold of the towball end. So if you're reversing the car, you look over your shoulder, and move it the same way!

Of course I looked it up on google.

It stuck in my mind for some reason. I also remember that my fifth-grade teacher was allergic to roses.

Most people remember a ton of irrelevant crap.

Better still the two proper CCTV cameras that I have on each of two vehicles, with a proper TV screen for the display.

I remember the appearance of the buttons on a nightstand in a hospital in Galveston, even though I haven't been there for 47 years.

BTW, saying that reminds me of the smell of fish (another memory from that time, Galveston is on an island by the Gulf of Mexico). I would often ride the ferry, and smell the salt and fish.

When I was a young lad, maybe 10 or 11, my older brother said to me:

"I want you to forget that you ever heard of Edward Everett Horton. Never think of him again."

Thanks, bro. That command and that name have been rattling around in my head for over half a century.
