(15,814 posts)I gave him a rearview mirror that has the words "objects in mirror are closer than they appear". He loved it.
Did the same for a friend's husband, and she reports (years afterward) that every now and then he takes it out of the drawer, looks at it from different angles, shakes his head and puts it back. Cracks her up.
