In the World of the High Tech Redneck, the Graybeard is the old guy who earned his gray by making all the mistakes, and tries to keep the young 'uns from repeating them. Silicon Graybeard is my term for an old hardware engineer; a circuit designer. The focus of this blog is on doing things, from radio to home machine shops and making all kinds of things, along with comments from a retired radio engineer, that run from tech, science or space news to economics; from firearms to world events.

Again, I Got Nothing
Let the day get away from me and don't even see any news to go with, so some filler as I usually do.
Judging by the car, this isn't very old. Maybe late 60s.
The last is "widely quoted", because the former OceanGate CEO (and current deep-sea fishfood paté) made that exact quoted statement outright on a podcast that's widely available.
Kind of like a number of combat generals prancing in plain sight who famously said "They couldn't hit an elephant at this range!" just before they took a bullet to a vital organ, and expired.
The only other current quote more widely circulating on the blogs is " Aesop's showing his ass again on 'Kraine? That hole he is digging should be to China soon." Oh why mention that here? Because he is quite the little tyrant on his blog.
Einstein's Theory of Relativity (Amended) As you get older (um! OK mature) it appears that time rushes by more quickly or, at least to the involved observer, appears to.

The jokes write themselves.
That's because whites insist on following and using things like science and math, which all liberals know, are racist.

Twats like you flinging rat shit from the sewer gratings will be why SiG goes to moderated comments.
Enjoy your freedom while it lasts.

It's the toilet paper analogy. The further into the roll you get, the faster the paper disappears.
DeleteYes; in that case the effect is reel.
DeleteGood one, Anonymous!
DeleteSubtle.
Right?
