"No wonder it doesn't work OP. Pin 1 is the output but not Vcc. And why is R12 only 1K? It should be at least 68k".;)

I was in the primate area of the Denver Zoo and the orangutan was wearing a Zoo T-Shirt. The zoo employee I was with was disappointed that she had it on backwards. ;)

Orangutans are very intelligent creatures. The zoo does try to keep them entertained, hence the T-shirt. I saw the same animal trying to add water dripping from a hose spigot to thin out a pasty treat that was in a container too small to allow a finger inside.

Never seen one with my own eyes(just via TV) But I saw a documentary about orangutans some years ago and yes they are really intelligent. IIRC they school their offspring for years(wiki says 2 years but the documentary stated 4 or 6 years(a little bit fuzzy on that)) on all kinds of things, from making "nests/hammocks" in trees and what is edible in the area.

But one thing before anyone takes this the wrong way. I just like to think that he/she were seriously reading a schematic and finding faults in it. The fact that it's an/a ape/monkey had little to do with it.:)

Muslim Tribute Band

I went to see a Muslim Tribute Band last night at a Mosque in West Sydney.
They were called "Bomb Jovi".
I thought they were brilliant.
Songs like "Losing My Head Over You", "Rocket Launcher Man", "You're Six, You're Beautiful and You're Mine"
Their last song "Living on a Prayer Mat" almost brought the house down.
Then this Muslim bloke started bragging about how he had the entire Koran on DVD.
I was interested so I asked him, "Can you burn me a copy?"
Well that was when the trouble started . . .
........ those buggers have no sense of humour!

Hello,

They are having some troubles with the forklifter:


Bertus
The guys at 3:00 were true experts rather than a fail. Putting anything in a dumpster without a tipping fork is nearly impossible. That guys knew exactly what was going to happen. Watch how he braces himself well before the event.

True Story.;)
I had an old barber that when you sat in the chair he would usually ask whats new and where you were going for the holidays.
Didn't matter what you said, he had been there, done that.
So one time I thought I had him, when he asked, I said I was going to Rome and visit the Vatican and St Peters sq.
His reply : Not all its cracked up to be, if you see the Pope at all he is a little figure on a balcony, don't bother.
When I got back, went for a hair cut and he asked how the trip went.
I said great, not only was st Peters sq packed but the Pope came in to the crowd.
He walked up to me, laid a hand on my shoulder and said, "My son where the hell did you get your hair cut":(
Max.
