  1. A basic table lamp. Turns out it's cheaper to buy the whole lamp and strip off what I need than it is to buy the individual parts in DIY kits. :rolleyes: With due respect to H-C's simian and pentaleonine members, I think it's time we officially start shooting lawyers. I removed four idiot warnings off a lamp that's barely a foot high. Two stickers on the socket, one on the bottom, and a huge one on the cord. There was also a plastic protector on the plug and paper stuffed into the socket. I'm glad I'm so well guarded against the perilous dangers presented by a fucking table lamp. I should count my blessings that I don't live in a country that uses 240v for everything. :rant:

    Top: person(s) is/are a decendant from Plymouth colonists.

    Middle: He was a Mason, and she was a member of the Eastern Star, the women's auxiliary to the Masons. (Symbols A and D)

    He was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. (Symbol B)

    She was a member of a 'Daughters of the War of 1812' group. (Symbol C)

    Bottom: They were both medical professionals; a doctor and a nurse. He was a member of the American College of Physicians and an internist. The lyre in the middle refers to a fraternal / sorority membership.

    Additionally, old Chuck hung in there, living to be ~90. He married a women 22 years his junior.

  3. Helped out my friend Steve, who showed up earlier than I expected him.

    Developed a nasty headache.

    Politely declined to attend a trip to the strip club with my housemate, the other Steve, and a bunch of the diner staff.

    Completely and utterly failed to rewire this gorgeous art deco lamp/sculpture. I am sad and defeated, and my fingers are killing me. I might have to enlist the help of a professional, if I can find one.
