    haroo, sorry but you always trip me out. Why in the world are you making power cords? It was like the DIY triple braided lamp cord. I thought you were just jokeing. LOL:confused: :eek:

    WELL, my dad was a preast(anglican) and one day.... MAN , THIS SOUNDS LIKE SOME REALLY CORRNY STORY OR BAD JOKE... but any way , it was really rainnng hard up here in canada,that doesnt happen too often(excpt in "VANCOUVER,ca) and i was driving in the country when all of a sudden this salamader gecceo ran across the road, i allmost recked my grand prix 92' when i hit the ditch to miss this thing , i got out and it was looking right at me... it didnt move *you know the saying "scaired stiff, i think that i did this to him* well, to make a long story ~ short, i took it home in a slurppie cup(thats crushed ice & flavour) for you ppl south of the bourder,and my dad thought that i finilly lost my mind... (i was 24yrs old @ the time) he told me that in the bible there was little gecceos the were named "haroo's" so there you have it.
    yrs later the "BEVERLY HILL'S NINJA"(HAROO) CAME OUT~W/ CHRIS FARLY'
    thats where everybody thinks that it comes from.... NOPE!
    you got the good today,my friend ::D

    Hi:

    Hate to disappoint you Haroo but the name is not in the Bible. Check it for yourself.

    The length of the power cord doesn't matter as long as it's not overly long like ten or more feet and then you need to go with a larger gage wire in porportion to length.
