I made an Internet of Things thing
An esp8266 wifi microcontroller breakout board from Adafruit, a quad 7-segment LCD display, and ThingSpeak.com can be made into a simple weather monitor.
How I shift my bits and other secret things
Red LEDs driven by five shift registers clocked at 15Hz by a 555 timer.
Professor Doohickey and the great EEPROM incident.
I program an EEPROM on a breadboard by hand using jumper wires. www.ClydeHoadley.com
NeoPixels
A string of 60 NeoPixel RGB LEDs run by an Arduino Mini. I wrote the script and had my MAC narrate it using the ZarVox voice.

My experience with an exclusive OR
I tried to build a full adder out of transisters but couldn't get it to work, so I started over from scratch.

Looking through the microscope today.
Looking at a slide of a mammal's ovary under the microscope. Per Wikipedia the white blobs with a dot in the middle are called ovarian follicles. Women begin puberty with about 400,000 follicles, each with the potential to release an egg cell (ovum) at ovulation.

Squamous epithelium on a slide
I got a microscope! Video shows me trying it out by looking at a sample of squamous epithelium on a slide. Pictures were taken by holding my cellphone up to the eyepiece.
Duck duck crow
Mallard ducks. Lots of color.
Hooded Merganser. Poofy hair.
American Crow (Common Crow.) Uh, I'm not sure that's edible.
My NASCAR race
I took 3rd place in this NASCAR race. There were no injuries but they were still cleaning up the wreckage when I left.
Towers of Hanoi puzzle
Demonstrate the Towers of Hanoi puzzle using QEMU emulator running a Forth script. QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer.
