In my mid 60's, been feelin' old lately.
Coffee buddies and I can't figure out, for the life of us, why some of the young folks styles could ever be considered attractive by anyone. Especially the young lady this morning, who had pink and blonde hair that looked like it was cut with hedge shears. She was pretty, if you ignored the hair.
Woman my age that I deal with regularly complains that when young folks ask a question, they speak so fast that you have to take a second to assimilate it, then if you don't answer instantly, they patiently repeat the question like you're a moron.

And wife of 41 years, bless her heart, that keeps my secrets and does her best to cover for me.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
