Well, no. Mebbe a melange of hollandaise. As they say in the classics "Das machine is nicht fur gefingerpoken und mittengrabben. Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und corkenpoppen mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht fur gewerken by das dummkopfen. Das rubbernecken sightseeren keepen...

Hhmm, I'll concoct a diy allegory (if that's what it is) ; Imagine each of us, when born, start out as if we're in our very own bucket being swung around by life itself. Each year our 'string' gets a little longer between us and 'life'. Hang in there with me; you all know that when you swing a...

Whaa? nope, it's all double dutch to me.

Nice! But... (being cheeky now) I counted 2 pony tails ;)

Someone put me right, but I vaguely remember Hollywood was going to have a crack at 'Rama'. That'd be so cool.

True, but France is only a little behind

Hi all, just got my latest dose of 'Silicon Chip' magazine. In the August edition there's 'The history of Op Amps'; "Harold S. Black's discovery of negative feedback paved the way for the development of operational amplifiers, which are widely used in all sorts of electronic devices, especially...

Pardon my bad taste in dad jokes (I promise this is the first/last one) "Two percussionists fall of a cliff... boom boom" :facepalm:

Onto the 2nd Russian outfit: Leonid & Friends. Wow, they're a bunch of amazing musicians.

Hhhmm, following on from the guitar post; I play guitar regularly, but can't come at 'collecting' them. After all, I can only play one at a time AND I'll only be able to play the same way with the same chord shapes and riffs. However, I *really* like the look of some guitars and admit to...

Oh the wonders of the Interwebs; I've just fallen into a bunch of Russian stuff. Here's the first one: Valeriy Stepanov Fusion Project. Unreal. Hope you've got a spare hour :-)
