I always used VIBGYOR just to be a jerk.  Now stop !  I know what you're thinking !

Thought trigger:  I suddenly remembered my father teaching me the resistor (and others) color code.

Stop me before I thread drift again !

Black, brown, red, orange, yellow... that's all I remember offhand.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Very musical, but then Good Boys Do Fine Always. (Haven't given these a thought since I was taking trumpet lessons in grammar school.)
