A common electrician joke is to say that motors and other electrical things run on smoke. Because, if you let the smoke out, they don’t work anymore.
I'm an Electronics Tech not an electrician. I've tested this a few times. It's true! Including one capacitor that ended up as just the two leads.

The best mnemonic device I've ever come across is the one for the 12 cranial nerves.

All the docs on here, and @Just Gina know what I'm talking about.

Oh, oh, oh, to touch and feel virgin girl's vagina, ah heaven.

  1. Olfactory nerve: Sense of smell.
  2. Optic nerve: Ability to see.
  3. Oculomotor nerve: Ability to move and blink your eyes.
  4. Trochlear nerve: Ability to move your eyes up and down or back and forth.
  5. Trigeminal nerve: Sensations in your face and cheeks, taste and jaw movements.
  6. Abducens nerve: Ability to move your eyes.
  7. Facial nerve: Facial expressions and sense of taste.
  8. Vestibular nerve: Sense of hearing and balance.
  9. Glossopharyngeal nerve: Ability to taste and swallow.
  10. Vagus nerve: Digestion and heart rate.
  11. Accessory nerve: Shoulder and neck muscle movement.
  12. Hypoglossal nerve: Ability to move your tongue.

Totally admit I had to look up the actual nerves, I only remember the mnemonic. :D
In Electronics we had a different one to remember the resistor value color code.

The carpal (wrist) bones:

Some lovers try positions that they can't handle.

Scaphoid, Lunate, trapezium, pisiform, trapezoid, triquetrium, capitate, hamate.

Or the zones of production of hormones in the adrenal cortex from outside in:

The deeper you go the sweeter it gets- salt (mineralocorticoids), sugar (glucocorticoids), sex (androgens)


My neuroplasticity is not what it used to be and I certainly wish I could remember more relevant things today like where I put my car keys...
 
For those of us taught a musical instrument.

Here’s one used by Sommeliers to remember different size bottles:

Michael Jackson Really Makes Small Boys Nervous

Rehoboam - 6
Methuselah - 8
Salmanazar - 12
Balthazar - 16
Nebuchadnezzar - 20

Hemmingway "Out of Africa" dinner for our clients

We love going the extra mile for our clients. The best feeling in the world is our clients going "Wow! this is amazing thank you"
Having had a successful hunt, having happy clients leave camp. There is nothing better.
Knowing that they will return again next year as a friend.
