Engineering is about designing them, or building them.

You needed to take a course in repair!

I never got shocked from a picture tube, but once, when I was being
careful, I must have made a mistake and gotten 2KV, because I jumped
back 10 feet with a dislocated shoulder. It hadn't been out in 8
years, and I thought it was healed (after 10 previous dislocations.)
Witihin 3 months it was coming out 4 times in one week, and I had to
have surgery. Good doctor. No problems since.

Yea my shoulder has been flaky since an injury long ago. I ended up
having surgery. I think its the Tae Kwon Do that has strengthen the
joint the most though. It rarely comes out nowadays.
