A RAINBOW TERRY'S CHOCOLATE ORANGE COZY!
As it says a crocheted sphere in rainbow colours with lots of extra strands of red yarn sticking out of the top. The cozy is just the right size to fit a terry's chocolate orange, which the cozy is sitting on.

Maybe I DO want to learn to drive if it means I can put this dude on my gearstick.

It was listed as used and in good condition but it looks brand new tbh.

The chapter titles sound kind of down to earth and practical. Big old appendix tho!
Preface Acknowledgements Chapter 1 establishing the basics The psychological tie between sound and the human mind Why audio electronics? The goal of high performance audio equipment Harmonic distortion What about intermodulation? Noise Chapter 2 Begninning at the beginning To Balun or not to Balun? That is the question! Solid state balun variations Jumping from the pot onto the step ladder. Appendix A audio electronics terminology Appendix B Sources of information and materials Appendix C PC Board Artwork Index Appendix A starts on page 287 and the index starts 60 pages later on 347!

So for christmas he's asked for books that teach audio engineering, and mum's got him the one that the RnD department recommended.

But he learns best with practical stuff. So I've found him a book with projects.

Reset the sign!
Futurama still of Fry walking towards a big sign saying "0 days since last accident" except it's been edited to say "0 days since Beanie locked himself in the bathroom" with a photo of the boy himself loafing underneath the sign.

When I ordered some stickers recently the artist included some extras including a mini version of the cat lava lamp I'd ordered and I just realised my phone matches my laptop.

I'm really foggy today and the artist's name has slipped my mind but their stuff is so good.
A green and black phone cover with a small orange holographic lava lamp sticker. The lava blobs form the vague shapes of cats. On the back of the laptop that the phone is resting on is a larger version of the sticker in green instead of orange

I missed it at the time because I'd only moved to East Anglia that week but a white ex-army guy stabbed his muslim neighbour in November last year and some of what's coming out at trial is horrifying.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
he police footage showed Mr Vickers saying people were "bowing down to the Muslims". "When I get released there will be more of them getting done," he said. Mr Vickers starts to shout at the officers, telling them he was in the military and deserved "more respect". "I done more than he ever done. What you done?" he asked the officers who were treating the victim in the room next door.

post your warning label
A yellow triangle warning sign of a stick figure right in the middle of tripping over a tiny bump on the ground. And I mean he's REALLY tripping over. He's fully about to eat shit on the ground. Underneath is the code W187 and the text "Risque de trébuchement"

My brother wants books on audio electronics for christmas so I've been trying to do some research and find the best ones that fall within our £30 gift limit, but the search results keep including random unrelated stuff and I keep getting distracted.
listing for a book called "a dictionary of australian colloquialisms" by GA Wilkes and published in 1978. The cover looks to have someone playing aussie rules football, a logo with the text "don't argue, huttons is best" and a photo of a guy standing next to a road sign for "black stump road" holding up a can of beer.

Not sure about the small crane I made before I took a break. I don't think it works with the rest of the stuff that goes on the deck.
Other objects on the felt including a corduroy shipping container, a grey felt and mesh cube and a small crane made of white cotton.

I worked really hard to make this dickhead an oversized platform so he wasn't always hanging off the edge and he's started perching on the even smaller platform.
Photo looking down at a cat tree with a circular platform about 36cm wide and an oval platform about 30cm by 15cm with a scratching post on one side taking up one end of it. A white and ginger cat sitting on the oval platform with his front legs sort of perched with his feet on it but his elbows up in the air. His tail is hanging down behind the platform.

A movie that takes place where you're from.

Bloodbath at the House of Death
Movie poster for Bloodbath at the house of death with the title in big red letters on a black background and illustrations of a bath full of blood, a man screaming in terror with his hair standing on end, a blonde woman wearing just underwear and covering her breasts with her hand, and in the background a manor house with the lights on shining in the dark

I fear my Stats page is always going to be pretty heavily weighted towards airports over aircraft and battles.
