To quote a blog post I wrote in 2006 [1]:
"To be fair to my parents, they did supply a vast supply of love, encouragement with my more sensible interests, pushed me in school (that was a lot of work and would have been much easier if I'd understood my personality type and learning style at the time) and provided an endless supply of items that I could take apart in an effort to satisfy my curiousity of "How this works" (they were especially happy when I became skilled enough to successfully reassemble these items)."
Perhaps it would be a good idea to show how to reassemble the more expensive items. Future parents would be grateful.

- sanswork 12y agoI still remember the first VCR I actually managed to get back together and working in all its dark wood panelled glory. I moved onto software a few years later to the excitement of my mother since I was a forgetful child with a lot of burn marks on the floor where I'd forgotten or dropped a soldering iron. Computer parts everywhere and a busy phone line were better than the risk of a burnt down house.
- HeyLaughingBoy 12y agoHoly cow. It was really 8 years ago, wasn't it? I remember being on BoS at the time and watching patio11's BCC experiment with interest and promising myself to get off my butt and start another business. A bit off topic, but time sure does fly!
