The Sex Life Of An Electron

One night when his charge was pretty high, Mike O'Fared 
decided to find a cute coil and let her discharge him. He 
picked up Millie Amp and took her for a ride on his 
Mega-Cycle. They rode across the Wheatstone bridge, around 
the sine curve and into the magnetic field next to the 
flowing current. Mike O'Farad, attracted by Millie Amp's 
characteristic curves, soon had her field fully excited. He 
laid her on the ground potential, raised her frequency and 
pulled out his high voltage probe. He inserted it in 
parallel and began to short-circuit her shunt. Fully 
excited, Millie Amp cried "give me Mho." With his tube at 
maximum output, and his coil vibrating from the current 
flow, her shunt soon became overheated due to his push-pull 
excitation. At maximum reactance they finally resonated. 
They fluxed all night, trying various connections and 
sockets until his bar magnet had lost all of its field 
strength. Afterwards Millie Amp tried self-induction and 
damaged her solenoid. They ended up reversing polarity and 
blowing each other's fuses.
