I am going to present Forever Labs to about 200 people in a couple of weeks, and that makes me a bit anxious, but then I was told today that I am going to do a live local television interview next week. I am less anxious about the presentation. Our new office is almost done. I think I might be able to buy furniture tomorrow. Today I installed a new light fixture with live wires out of courtesy. The common fuse box is labeled, but I was a bit worried that I would click off 'suite 205', but then turn off everyone's computer in the startup across the hall. The landlord wasn't in his office, so I did it live. I shocked myself a bit. It's been a while.
Good work. It's important to touch live 110v wires every once in a while, just to remember what it feels like to be alive. I had a really weird stereo amplifier rig I played with for years, and getting the ground switches on the two amps synched with the ground for the PA that my microphone was connect to, was ... well ... I got 110v through the lips quite often.
That sounds really painful. I never minded getting 110 across a hand, like thumb to finger. Hand to hand, though, always kind of hurt.
