  The Thrill Is Gone and so is B.B. King- the REAL King

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know there's another thread about this specially talented musician's passing- but this guy was a torch carrier from the old bluesmen like muddy waters, howlin wolf, john lee hooker, and lightnin' hopkins who made chuck berry millions of $$$$$$ and collaborated with rock n rollers like bono of u2 .

  these old bluesmen from the 1940's deserve all the credit for the babv that the blues ended up giving birth to- rock and roll music.

  any comments are appreciated and welcome for b.b., music, or the blues in general pour your heart out.

  Where Does Jehovah Live?

  when my niece was very little (over 20 years ago), barely walking or talking, my mother decided to teach her "where jehovah lives".

  she would coach her and say, "where does jehovah live?

  " in a sing-song voice.

  Indeed.

  Probably moved to the Andromeda Galaxy since. Heard she was beautiful, and not too far away.

  You could've said that he used to live in the Pleides star cluster on/near the star Alcyone, but new light forced him to move and he has since been of no fixed address.

  You wouldn't have been lying.

  Any Letterman Fans

  not many shows left.. was a fan from his nbc days when he had a lot of innovation.. no question, he has a quick mind, which to me, is a key to comedy.. a distinct memory was awakening my poor pre-teen daughter when dave was back on the air after his heart surgery.. no matter what, is a changing of the guard (if only the wt could do the same)..

  I was a fan of the early Dave, when he was more the rogue jester, comic imp and all around sarcastic rapscallion. Gonzo humor a la New York style. A rebel with applause.

  End of an era in late show history.

  Questions for those that believe in Electricity

  by OnTheWayOut in

  2. friends

  you can't see electricity or hear it or feel it.

  well, there are sparks and lightning bolts and heating elements and the light and heat of filaments.

  and somehow, it lights up neon in a tube.

  RE 277V

  I've heard from a friend in commercial renovations that this is the "widowmaker" voltage, for the mentioned reason.

  Then again, 50V or less could kill under the right conditions; all depends on the path of the current and the resistance between "contacts". A mere 20 milliamps can cause respiratory paralysis and 100 - 200 mA can cause fibrillation, should the current pass through the chest. Higher current may not necessarily cause the lungs or heart to stop but will cause severe burns likely internal, which ain't good.

  Or so it is written.

  I believe in electricity, especially when it bites me...

  Though not exactly correct with respect to physics, I've found the water analogy the best in terms of understanding concepts and terms.

  Imagine a water tower. The water in a high tower will have more force when it hits the ground than a low tower. This is akin to voltage, a potential of energy

  Amperage is analogous to the diameter of pipe from reservoir to ground, a larger pipe allowing more water to flow through a point at a time, in effect.

  Power is essentially the energy that can be converted or spent doing something useful over time and is directly related to volts and amps. The same power could be had from a trickle from a very high tower (high V, low A) as from a low tower opened up wide (low V, high A). Applications may vary.

  And I've seen water towers, so electricity must exist...
