Oh yes the reason... pick one:
  • Because I could
  • No one stopped me
  • It was an accident
:D

The truth is: It was fun to do and is fun to use :)

  • That thing I can't think of where really tidy people are actually serial killers or something :twisted:

This coming from the guy, who one day said: Hey I spend the next 48hours on routing my own ST board instead of sleeping, that'll be fun :mrgreen:

Wow. I hope my wife never look to this pics from Ingo. My two desks are the complete opposite to that... cable over cable, dozens of PCBs flying around, dozens of projects, devices and so on... I gave up for a long time to order that constatly. I´m something like the organized maniac I think.

If she ever saw this, I got a challenge. For sure. This will be the end of all days...

Guess why my mother always scolds me when she visits.

I'm not going to show her, no worries ;)

The question is: If you had an empty room to start over and only so much stuff, that it could easily fit in there, would it still look the same? I had that luxury, but if you'd take a look in my garage... you could not even walk through there without risking injury. So I am human after all and no psychopath (to my knowledge). ;)

(different voice) Me meither :mrgreen:

My mother in law is a cleaning maniac. If she would come over (150km safety distance helps), she would probably burn down the house...

My Mother lives is the neighbor city, which is.... on the other side of my street (both cities are so near from each other that you could think there's only one).
So she comes... everyday (she loves walking my cat on leash and he lets out a loud happy but impatient meow when he sees her coming).
PS he's a huge cat, with a kitten's voice.
