Just tonight I adopted a puppy born in 1985. I hope the twins like him: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Axlon-PetSter-electronic-dog-Plush-Toy-1985-box-iNSTRUCTIONS-/230930863170?nma=true&si=s8wldEgn681za1AJE7eI0MyywwY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Maybe NOW my vintage robot collection is complete... NAH!

    I'm sure that, and the two HW9s, are "investments" for the twin's college fund. :)

    Three now... :)

    I got a decent deal on an assembled, tested, full output HW9 with WARC, so how could I resist? So my first two units remain unbuilt... appreciating, hopefully.

    Now if I can just get my hands on a nice SB-104A, I'm sure my Heathkit ham collection will be complete...!

    You're right, naturally. But as George Costanza explained to Marissa Tomei about why he lied about being engaged, "It's really just something you say..."
