Is it just me, or does "Googling Yourself" just not sound right?..

I did that a while back. By the time the parts showed up, I'd forgotten why I'd bought them.

I blame it on a misspent youth finally catching up :) Nice usage of the double birdie, BTW
I really need to regain my electronics knowledge from years past. All that Coast Guard ET/TT school training has been going to waste. The TT (telephone tech) school stuff is deader than a dodo tho, given the rise of digital telecomms. Once I left the CG, most of my time was spent in computers. I gained a lot of new skills, but the old ones withered.

I appreciate it! It's those little touches that let people know they matter
