If you aren't an idiot, You are aware that this file is called "How to
|
|||
|
connect anything to anything." This is no small task. Let's get started....
|
|||

What many people don't realize is that the illusion of genius can be created
|
|||
|
with little or no intelligence at all. You see, when people talk about someone
|
|||
|
being "Oh, so smart." They aren't referring in fact to his/her ACTUAL
|
|||
|
intelligence, but to their EXPOSED or ASSUMED intelligence. Let's
|
|||
|
demonstrate...
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Jimmy Carpenter in Butfuck, VA. His greatest technological achievement is
|
|||
|
screwing in his lightbulb. Everybody thinks he`s a complete idiot, but little
|
|||
|
Jimmy has an IQ of 145. Nobody knew.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Mark Dman of Boston, MA. He hooked up his phone to his stereo to his christmas
|
|||
|
tree to his left leg. Everyone thought he was a complete genius. Everyone was a
|
|||
|
bit surprised when he got stoned (as usual) and rammed the family camaro into a
|
|||
|
7-11 front window.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
These two cases (Fictional, asswipe!) in one way or another show that while
|
|||
|
not showing brains can make people seem like idiots, acting like you have brains
|
|||
|
can make people think you're a genius. Simple enough? Good!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\====================================================/
|
|||
|
The ten commandments of hooking anything to anything
|
|||
|
/====================================================\
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I. Thou shalt remember that in order for anything to work, thou must have a
|
|||
|
complete circut in there somewheres.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
II. Thou shalt remember that there must be connections of + to -, else thou
|
|||
|
shalt look idiotic.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
III. Thy tool-kit must be complete and ready, for it's nasty to get shocked
|
|||
|
because thou hadt spliced wire with thy teeth.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
IV. Thou shalt always have an ample supply of wire at thy command, for it's
|
|||
|
aggravating to be unable to finish a project for want of two feet of wire.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
V. It is always divine to stick LED's in there somewheres, for flashing and
|
|||
|
multi-colored lights bring illusion of genius.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
VI. When working with circuts of more than 90 Volts, fuck it, for shocks are
|
|||
|
a pain in the ass.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
VII. If screwing with thy fone wires, be reminded that the holy repairmen
|
|||
|
look down on "independent finanglers".
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
VIII. Never screw with something thou cannot replace.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
IIX. Always be sure that thou art not making irreversible changes when thou
|
|||
|
might want to put back.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
IX. Always set aside an ample amount of time to do thy work, for what looks
|
|||
|
simple now, might not look so simple 2 hours later when thou comes back from
|
|||
|
wherever thou came.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
X. Remember that if thou are hurt because of info in this file, thine holy
|
|||
|
writer takes NO responsiblity for thou being a fuck-up.

Some Examples of connections
|
|||
|
/============================\
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Most parts of a connection (We'll call them components) can be separated into
|
|||
|
three different classifications:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I. Powered
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Examples:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Radio Phone TV
|
|||
|
Computer Light Tape player
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
II. Non-powered
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Examples:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Speakers LED Microphone
|
|||
|
Motor Screen Strobe
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
III. Line Affections
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Examples:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
DPST switch Timer Signal Splitter
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Together, these different components add up to some sort of interesting
|
|||
|
connections for everyone to marvel at. Let's see how...

To make this easier, I'll give a list of some ideas. See if you can tell

what "Trick" they cause. Create some others as you wish! It's your life!
