I went to set up a tripod once (years ago). I set one leg and pulled back the other two. Then I looked through the eyepiece to aim the optical plummet, and it was already aimed; so I stepped in the feet. I went back to the optical plummet and it was aimed @ the center of the point. I went to level up and the bubble was already in the center of bullseye. Fastest setup ever.
I didn't have the heart to tell you that you were set up over the wrong point when you did that.
My son nearly ran a man over one night, who had passed out with his head laying across the fog stripe of the road way. The tire literally missed his head by 6-12 inches. We quickly turned around and picked him up (but not before someone else swerved at the last minute almost hitting him again). We drove him home. In the wee hours the next morning, the man living next door to him, was driving at a very high speed in the fog and drove off the road in the same exact location, killing the son instantly within 10 feet of where this guy was passed out.
It was almost like I intervened with fate.

I thought TDD was banned? 🙂
TDD does what I described on a regular basis. It happened to me once only in 35 years of surveying.:bored:
The Super Bee on the first page is an A12 like my Roadrunne 
I attended a company training in Omaha last year. A small class of about 30 people. One of the young ladies in attendance last name caught my eye, turns out she is the niece of our very own David Karoly.
I don't really believe much in coincidence, but it sure freaks me out a bit when someone randomly pops into my head and a moment later the phone rings, and it's them.
I think I mentioned this last time you posted a pic of ur car, but my younger brother came across a Super Bee. It was not a Hemi model, but it was the dual carb 440 (I believe).
It had been stripped for drag racing and had no motor and no tranny.
He sold it to a guy (for a pretty decent price) who shipped it to Sweden for restoration.
I'd like to see how it turned out.
Seeing a muscle car on a road covered in packed snow seems so out of place.
I guess you could turn the pipes downward and light-it-up and thaw out the driveway.
B-)
