Hi phase,
I thought you might find some humour in her nick name. Her given name is Samantha. We didn't name our daughters until they were three days old - each. Then we named them as what they seemed like to us. It's not like they are going to get confused with different names until they are at least a few months old after all.
Still haven't see my Digikey order that was placed Monday. Normally I have it the next day. Time to go looking for it.

A boatload o' clamps to complete a current speaker build. The old saw about never having enough clamps is absolutely right!
And Chris, I hope your back's feeling better too. That's a miserable feeling for sure...

I can wholeheartedly recommend the Sonys. They have a feature that I'd jury rigged back in the day with in-ears, a mic, and a phone app, for office use- you can pipe in external sound from the noise cancelling mikes by putting your hand over one earpiece- you don't have to take them off to answer a 10 second question.
They also are very light, comfortable (nice big circumaural pads) and great battery life, in addition to really high end sound. The noise cancellation, instead of "closing in the sound", just lets you listen that much deeper into the mix, unlike the Senns, which sat on-ear and were less comfortable, had worse noise cancellation, and sound dull comparatively.
Hi Mr_Zenith,
Thanks very much. It's been since 2005, so I've passed through all the stages of being angry, etc .. Only when things get ridiculous do I complain.
Hopefully no one else experiences this. Just had my ~ 20 needles for nerve blocks I get every two weeks. I hate needles. In case any of you are in a similar situation, these actually work for me, plus the drugs.
Sometimes there are treatments that go unnoticed. Acupuncture didn't do anything, nor did the TENS machine (hate that thing).
I was going to say (since I'm OT here), I love your avatar. I like restoring old radios as well. Sadly, I don't have any Zenith product.

I usually try and do that, but here in the rainy Pacific Northwest, there’s a lot of usage and they can get pretty sloppy after just a year.
I really like this stuff, helps reduce the drag between the blades and the glass.

Yikes!
At almost 10% of my monthly salary here in SA, not cheap.Bought my self some new swimming goggles. Others are 10+ years olde. Lasted well - will keep them as spares.
Our legendary local hardware store, famous for having one of everything, recently rekindled my affection with a new endcap display featuring a number of electronics hobbyist/ prototyping items, including some of these boards in various sizes, and at reasonable prices too!
I was so amazed and eager to support their efforts that I grabbed up a bunch of these & other things, even though I don't have projects waiting for many of them (yet). I hope they keep it up! This could get interesting.
"Are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin..."
Just a quick inventory for now - Too busy to start building this weekend.

oooooo
Is that a synth? Is it a kit, or your own design?
I had physically stop myself buying a MOS8580 Commodore based synth, and think about a kit....just so many to choose from....and I dont want to go modular.
Jim, my perf boards were from Eprey. 1st lot never shipped, bad seller. 2nd lot shipped and got here in great time, good seller. I nabbed 20 7x3cm and 10 6x7cm for probably £15, give or take.
my local "shop famous for carrying only one LM317 in stock", closed down, and well...there wasnt anything good to grab. So I'm jealous!
