OMG, that takes me back to 1999.. waiting 2 months for the IT department to install a LAN cable to my new test bench. Decided to take matters in my own hand and connected a 75 ohm cable, splitter and terminator on a 50 Ohm network. I finally had network acces, but inadvertently messed up the LAN on half the site. Never realised there were different values... When IT finally found out the cause, they made a big fuss, which obviously backfired :)

Fanny pack goes below gut, it keeps the elastic belt line above the tummy where it belongs. Not below the butt crack where they end up. Like the kids today
 
Wow ... that just reminded me what we did in the 60's as a kid.

I might be wrong ... were they Estes rockets? I remember the scariness of launching those ... might be why I'm on blood pressure meds now.
I still have three Estes rockets in my shop. One complete....many years back....and two still packaged. I lost the launcher somehow and never replaced it.
