content: Hi guys. I was trying to get to sleep in the wee hours last night, so I put on Dave's battery powered bench power supply Rev C video.I actually was enjoying it, don't get me wrong. I kinda can't sleep without some heavy brain activity.But then for some reason Dave was showing us how to create these simple kinda parachute type devices that could lift you up into the air. Small kinda 1m x 50cm air bag things. It was kinda a group of us, and Dave was discussing-politely (raging) about how these were real cool but if the coppas found us they'll arrest us. Just trying to stop us having a good time outside etc.Anyway I got mine going and sure enough I was lifted up into the air and stuff. Ya didn't get much altitude but it was fun to whizz around a few feet off the ground. You needed some kind of hot air thing to get started.Anyway we went to a big park and got flying around - it was great! But I saw one of those NSW cop cars coming. I think it was NSW - it looked like the cop cars ya see on blue heelers. (I'm a kiwi, I don't know about your cop cars. Just very familiar with the wrong side of our own).We all scrammed to hide and hide our gear among some trees. Dave & pals were arrested first. I pretended to be asleep during the whole thing. What? Parachutes? Me? No officer.Sure enough they arrested me too and we all got thrown in the slammer. Then I woke up.Let that be a lesson to all you guys - Dave will enter your dreams.

content: Which video features these parachutes? I'm surprised they arrested you for using them. Most people get a warning.

content: LOL I swear Dave was also in my dream this afternoon when I had a nap.In the dream I was at dinner at my parents, and I was bored and Dave was there so I asked him how the crystal oscillator tank circuit worked (that I built before IRL but I don't think works, and I was re-drawing it today IRL).So I asked Dave and he just looked over and didn't say anything, and I was waiting for an explanation, and thats all I remember, because I don't know and was waking up enough to wait for an answer, but since IDK myself, I never got 1.
