JV is all in that girlie stuff
(you can bet that he's having drawers full with 'belle restposten)
I am betting on this very thing, although I realized they are limited to low value power resistors. If you are only going to have only a couple parts, better make em good ones. Girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.
The Pred's vs. Invading Canadians game iz on here and got to watch 1st session where we out shot 'em 13 to 3. But my old Sacramento Kings are playing the Atlanta Hawks on the other station (Sacramento iz leading at the moment) and it might be the last time I get to see the Kings play as a team from Sacramento....
So switching back and fourth between games.... 😎
Basketball? That's not a real man sport. Our Thomas is better than that. We had a team here for awhile until they realized there's no contact allowed. Ran 'em outta town we did.
Still no score at the end of the 2nd. Your team won the 1st, mine the 2nd. May the best team win my friend.

Buzz,
boring intro :
DIY electronics & audio has deep roots in Germany/Cheesehole/(France).
Many of the elder NL audio folks grew up with Philips experiment electronics boxes, think ; Jan Didden, Guido Tent, AJ vdHull, Menno van der Veen, Bruno Putzeys(?), moi. Similar story in Germany.
Same-same for hi-tail DIY audio in those three, part to do with the mindset, other factor is access to esoteric/exotic components. (France e.g. through the links/connection with Japan)
Isabellenhütte is like Penny&Giles, both manufacture mainly for industrial users. Some of their stuff is pretty for audio, but their trade setup/structure is/was (almost) entirely for corporate dealings.
In the half '80s, most audio DIY's in these parts assembled kit-works, with generic active devices, mylar caps, cement wirewounds, cheap universal cases & knobs, low cost and open style volume pots.
1 in 100(1000?) used components as Toshiba J73/K146, Roederstein/Siemens KP/KS caps, various esoteric resistor brands, Sikorel/Rifa lytics, etc., one-off cases, P&G pots or Alps-BB minimum. Same story for valve-hardware. Me part of that scene from very early.
First output stage I built with Isabellenhütte emitter resistors was in '88/'89.
Fukushima Futaba MPC71 and every Tosh device could be had at a 10 minute cable car ride (or 20min on a bike), but MPC74 were hard to obtain.
Bit expensive, but heatsink mounted ones was an appealing idea at the time (anno 2013, a couple of commercial audio acquaintances have been designing/manufacturing output stages with through-hole resistors for quite some time now).
I've also used their plate resistors (e.g. Mr Giner of Metronome in France uses them for discrete mains filters), and a couple of Isabellenhütte's precison resistors.
Back in the late '80s, early '90s, by driving over to a shop counter in Germany. Half a dozen years ago, a couple of NOS through the web.
If you do a D-contest search for all variants of isabellenhütte (huette/hute), you'll likely find one reference of e.g. Holger, and at least a dozen of sales raps by some idiot.
(puts the Caddock rage in an entirely different perspective, no ?
)Back to the T's and Tats setting.

Congrats on your team winning Cal. It wuz just the sort of game I hate to watch - Heavy on good defense and sloppy on offense - and that wuz a sneaky shot that put your boyz into the win column (frigg'n back door man). Alas the wheels fell off of the Kings during the 4th but they played a good game until about half way through the last quarter - then it wuz bye-bye baby.

Why am I thinking that she wazn't the Queen of the Debutant Ball. She duz remind me of one of my buddies daughters tho - she's a pole dancer at a local joint back in Sacramento (my old stomping grounds).
ps - dachshunds rule!!!

What the hell iz that???? R U sure that's it's really human??? 😱😱😱
Here in the South we call that Coyote Ugly..... 😱

good to have Big Cal as bloody Mod here
every other will use our testicles , to tie a rope
