Done.
I had that Casio Calc about 30+ years ago.
How is all this illegal food making it past your health people on the way into the country?
There is a name brand of tape that is "duck" tape. That cap must be the duck's guts!
I can't believe nobody got the reference after all this time "the ducks guts" is a capacitor
Good luck with all the Kickstarters projects
You are correct that the original tape was Duct Tape. But these days anything is possible. There is also a "Duck" brand of Duct Tape sold in the US.
The flashing leds on the electronic business card really display a morse code. Could not decode everything, because of the cuts in the movie, but the green one for example says "Dave" in one moment and in another says "…ers", probably a part of a name too. Pretty original idea for a card, I am interested.
dude you look like Stan Laurel…
I wonder if that knife is even legal to keep, your videos are fun to watch dave, keep up the good work!
Send me the matcha Kitkats!!!!! I luv'em.
cool blue is basically some sort of dutch amazon
Dave, I'm surprised you didn't recognize a "Dux Capacitor!"
Heh! "I wonder what processor the X68000 uses". The Motorola 68000 is a very obvious guess. And there's nothing wrong with matcha flavoured Kit Kat.
Careful! They are actually Wasabi-KitKats…
omg the first box is what is a wet dream for me a sharp X68000 wanted one for a few year now but man buying ship and importing it would maybe cost a bit to much for me butt man I envy you.
Now, that's a knife!
Its a dux capacitor.
Does anyone know what the flashing LED on the Asmyldof card is? Is it just random flashing, or some code.
Do Aussies get Casio calculators more often than Texas Instruments?
Deathtrap-Monday.
Yes the Casio did come with a wallet, I should know I still use it every day after decades.. 73 Gee/G4NLA
lol that knife is huge, are you related to Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee? 😀
