I have returned

Hey I just flew in from reality and boy are my android arms tired [ba-da, te]. Ok, REAL lame.

Sorry I didn't post in February. New job is still keeping me busy. But there is a light at the end of this tunnel. Over the past five months I've been working really hard at getting really good at my job. I still have a little ways to go, but I'm getting there and thus I'm am feeling much more relaxed. So, I am happy to say that in the near future I will be trying to do some odds and ends work on R6-C9. And to prove it, I just bought some more electronic components from Radio Shack to do some LED testing for the PSI's. I still want to use fiber optics for the display and so I'm still trying to find a working LED arrangement to get the desired blinking effect.

I only just recently noticed that Astromech.net is currently down. I did some research on the Club's message board and found out some guys are redesigning it. No time frame for when it will be finished, so just hang in there in the mean time.

One more thing. Is anybody actually reading this blog? I only ask because I have never ever, even on the previous version, gotten a comment posted on any of my post. Not that it really matters, but it would be nice to know if someone is interested in what I'm doing. Maybe I should add a Guestbook. That might be a conventional way for all my fans [crickets chirping] to say "hello."

Anyways, happy droid building,

John
