Any "Brocks" out there?
« on: March 15, 2014, 12:57:26 PM »
You Might Be a Technician if...

- you have ever tried to repair a $15.00 radio.

- you think of the gadgets in your office as "friends."

- you think your computer looks better without the cover.

- you have ever purchased an electronic appliance "as is."

- you have ever saved the power cord from a broken appliance.

- you think jokes about being unable to program a PVR are stupid.

- the salespeople at Jaycar can't answer any of your questions.

- the microphone at a meeting doesn't work and you rush up to fix it.

- you have a neatly sorted collection of old bolts and nuts in your garage.

- you own a set of itty-bitty screwdrivers, and you actually know where they are.

- you just don't have the heart to throw away the 100-in-1 electronics kit you got for your ninth birthday.

- you have never sat through an entire movie without having at least one device on your body beep or buzz.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

That's why I have a photo of my bike rather than me.
No point in confusing people.
