Several really good videos explaining electrical circuits

I mentioned in a previous post that I might be doing some posts on fundamentals of electronics.

Ongoing Backyard Landscaping

I took care of a fairly minor project today.  I didn't have a lot of time or I would have accomplished quite a bit more.  Even though it was pretty minor task, I still got pretty hot and sweaty.

Instrumental Music

I'm a pretty big fan of most musical styles.  I keep my player on random shuffle and it played a couple of instrumental tunes on my way in to work this morning.  Thought I would share some of the instrumental stuff I keep in the playlist.  There's quite a bit of variety.  Some you will recognize, and hopefully there is some music that you've never heard before that you enjoy.  Take a quick listen if it's something you aren't familiar with.

How I single-handedly caused it to rain for the first time in months

More toys!

The GW Instek multimeters that I purchased through an online auction finally arrived.  They work perfectly, with no funky voltage readings or anything alarming like the Fluke 8000A meters showed.

The previous post about the arrival and dissection of the two Fluke meters, and digital multimeters (DMMs) in general, is here:
