[QUOTE="andrew289, post: 541943, member: 6463"]Hmmm....ok 1) Dayglow orange is the color that hunters wear so they don't get shot by other hunters when they are hunting out in the field (i.e. it is easy to see). 2) The grave yard shift is from 11:00pm to 7:00am (i.e. it's dark outside) 3) Since it's dark at night it's dark inside the car. 4) Like most folks in the US, I keep change in my cup holders, some on the floor of the passenger side, even some loose change in the arm rest storage area. 5) I need 75 cents for the toll. 6) I sprayed the quarters orange so that when I was approaching the toll, I could look at the change scattered about the car and easily pick out the quarters. The passing light from the street lights as I drove along was enough to light up the orange so I could pull them out before I got to the toll booth.
