 a second sliding portion slidably coupled to said first sliding portion; and 
 
 a rod coupled to said pair of mounting brackets such that said rod extends between said pair of mounting brackets, said pair of mounting brackets facilitate sliding said rod to at least one of a first position and a second position. 
   
     
     
         12 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 11 , wherein said rod is extendable. 
     
     
         13 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 11  further comprising a liner slidably coupled to said rod, said liner comprises a first extension portion coupled to one of said pair of mounting brackets and a second extension portion coupled to another of said pair of mounting brackets. 
     
     
         14 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 11  further comprising at least one chassis cover coupled to said second sliding portion, said at least one chassis cover comprises:
 a rod socket coupled to said at least one chassis cover, said rod socket comprises a body, a cavity defined by said body and a rod stabilizer coupled within said cavity, said rod socket facilitates coupling said rod to said at least one chassis cover and facilitates stabilizing said rod. 
 
     
     
         15 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 14 , wherein said rod stabilizer comprises a substantially conical shape. 
     
     
         16 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 11  further comprising a motor coupled to at least one of said first sliding portion and said second sliding portion, said motor facilitates sliding said rod to at least one of said first position and said second position. 
     
     
         17 . A slidable shower rod system in accordance with  claim 11  further comprising a cover plate slidably coupled to said wall mount. 
     
     
         18 . A means for moving a shower rod, said means comprising:
 a means of moving a rod between at least one of a first position and a second position using a pair of mounting brackets; and   a means of coupling the rod to the pair of mounting brackets.   
     
     
         19 . (canceled) 
     
     
         20 . A means for moving a shower rod in accordance with  claim 18  further comprising a means for sliding the rod between at least one of a first position and a second position.
