I'm no shining role-model for posts. Since my injury decimated my language/communicatiive faculties, my posts look like those that made me constantly cringe. Ironically, it was only a few years after injury that I finally came up with my 'perfect sentence' that you might want to try for sh--s and giggles:
Recite this to someone and ask them to type it out:
"They're going over there to get their things, then returning rather than stay. You're welcome to get yours as well."
You may be truly surpised at those who mess it up....great fun over coffee or beer.

EDIT: The injury also damaged my memory; I had forgotten my later ammendment to the last part of that which I adapted to: "You're welcome to get yours too."

Follow up. That made me remember Heathkit. And by gum they’re still around!
Sure enough. I know back in the '80s I'd looked at their kits, but I don't remember if I ever bought one. I definitely had the Forrest M Mims mini-notebooks, several of which I made.
 
I'm honestly trying to find proof I am not a gremlin, & it's getting me very worried
That's OK, I'd like balrog to prove he and his crew are not AI, or somehow being enveloped and conjoined with it somehow..

...picture a large fast moving slug (AI) overtaking a clever but preoccupied monkeys... (I thought about editing this line, what do you think?)

But heck, I'd might have to work to prove I'm sane. However, I'm pretty sure I'm one of the saner people in most rooms I'm in,... though admittedly, that is often a low bar...

Wishing everyone a good eating holiday tomorrow, and it is likely healthy and good to have some gratitude for what one has.

As an embryonic e-nerd in my pre-teens I would pore through the Heathkit catalog each year and imagine picking out a bunch of their bigger projects. My dad took notice and eventually gave me the shortwave radio kit for iirc my 10th birthday. I do remember I built it in three days 😁 and then spent months learning Morse to understand all those beeps, boops, and clicks. There wasn't much voice going on back then...

Cheers!
