One my father had, no idea if it would actually work:
A long rubber tube to “balance” the air between a flat tire and a full one, giving you enough time to get to a gas station if your spare is no good or you don’t want to mess with it.
Two flats for the price of one.
You used to be able to get foam in a can for that. I don’t think you can anymore though. Something to do with having to chuck the tyre unless you replaced the foam with air within a few hours.
It was handy though. From memory, I used it to wreck a couple of tyres.
Like I’m gonna tell **you **guys. :rolleyes:

I have it on good authority that there’s one born every day, so by my count you’ll be a millionaire in just 2,700 years.

What, you have to pay extra for this?
Seriously, isn’t it time we had software that isn’t open to attack?
Quite a few manufacturers do this already, although I can’t tell if it’s because of a lack of convenient dash space for a different location or if it was because someone had a good idea. It’s a damn good idea though.
Coloured charger leads. Especially the generic ones (‘kettle’ leads, micro-USB to USB, Nokia chargers). They’d save me an immense amount of headache with my multiple tangled leads. I bet someone here will find such a product online, but I haven’t, so if it exists then it needs better marketing.
I’ll do you one better. I’ll invent a gasp universal charging system!!! Yeah…it’ll look like usb, no wait, mini usb, no wait, micro usb, except it’ll be better, and cooler. 
Oh wait, you mean every single one out there was trying to do that? And the end result is that there’s a million different types of “universal” chargers? Ok then. 
A TV show called “The Day Before.” About the trials and tribulations about a group of people working in a fictional office on the 99th floor od the World Trade Center. On Monday, September 10, 2001.
There are basically two in Europe now, at least for newer phones and computers. For phones, the companies now have to use a universal charger and most laptops (well, all the ones I’ve used) have a kettle lead for the section that goes into the wall. But the different items all still have the same colour leads and now the same ends, so it’s actually got even harder if you have multiple items plugged in.
In the '60s, when I was a kid struggling with binding straps, I invented ski brakes. I had the engineering all worked out, pretty much identical to today’s, except I had the prongs facing forward. I should be getting a royalty.
a saILING BLIMP THAT USES AIR FOILS FOR KEELS AND MAYBE THOSE ROTATING CYLINDERS INSTEAD OF SAILS. SOUNDS LIKE FUN TO ME.
I believe the expression is, “…a sucker born every minute…”, in which case, if I get $1/minute, in just under two years I will have my $1million.
That’s right. That’s - that’s good. That’s good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 7 hour energy drink. Then you’re in trouble, huh?
