Just the other day wife and I were having this discussion over the time spent at TEA.
I was having trouble getting the message over that although she is very important to me the choice isn't always an easy one.
Now gratefully I have this video to show her that describes the feeling better than any words I'll ever choose since they're a woman's words (...or at least I suppose they are?).
That leaves me more precious time to get busy with those fuckin' multimeters  >:D :-DD

HA!!... At  2:03  in the video, she explains how she can measure Volts & Amps at a power-socket!  8)
Dave likes knocking $2 multimeters, (that wasn't one), but I think she could do with one!!  A dead short with her
probes would instantly blow the shit out of the internals, and cut the fault quickly!!  And we need to inform her
that probes on tongue does not show her 'resistance' to stupidity. But to get a 'tingle' at least, then make sure
it's on Diode-Testing mode to at least be above break-down voltage on the probes. Only in America...  :-DD

As far as I have been able to find, the only way to stop the forum from doing that is to link the video through a URL shortener.
