Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm currently fascinated by Arduino.

I have an Arduino controller board. I used it to control servos. It was pretty cheap. (About $35?)

It's fun to play with. A tiny computer that you can program in a limited fashion, and it has numerous analog and digital inputs and outputs so it can be used in all sorts of experiments.

And Pat's the guy who tells us about the morning papers every day!

On a NYC local TV show, I assume?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They eventually realized that they were the bad guys in Die Hard, and that one person was John McClane.

It would have been ubercool if they'd killed him before finding that out.

I have an Arduino controller board.

I am totally unsurprised.

I think an Arduino could be to me what electronics sets and Fischer Technik were not.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Does anyone know much about orgy etiquette?

If its like any other party the host is probably running around making sure the little dishes of condoms are filled and that the astro glide is flowing and "where IS that fucking hand cuff key? Why DO they have to be so damn little..." and barely has a moment of peace nevermind, um, pleasure.

I got very, very wet.

ETA: And I love that I post this right after an orgy etiquette question. Please note that my wetness is not related!

I guess I'm a little predictable....

I think an Arduino could be to me what electronics sets and Fischer Technik were not.

I had an electronics set as a kid. I never got beyond following their instructions to make stuff - I tried to design my own circuits but they never worked. I think I was confused about the different types of transistors.

I've recently read some books on elementary electronic circuits, and suddenly they make more sense.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On a NYC local TV show, I assume?

Indeed -- he's the morning anchor on NY1, the local news channel. If you watch How I Met Your Mother, it's where Robin supposedly works.

I'm assuming this is not a reply to Trudy's post.

ETA: SPP x-post!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

NY1, the lovably low-budg local news channel. Home of Morning Papers and Roger Clark [link] the least likely newsperson in a major market ever.
