“Hmm, i’m Bored, I guess I’ll read about dirt”
I mean, I'm not one of the dirt lickers, but you've got that loose dirt, that dirt that feels like rock, dirt that gets in your socks, dirt that treats your mom right, but you don't know if you should keep calling them Mr. Dirt, like when they first started dating her, or Allen like the dirt said a couple nights ago.

All types of dirt to read about.

 
I won't be burning mine - I passing some of them off to a coworker.

I *did* move them from the basement to our home office last night. They're still in the box/bag tho. Not unpacking them yet.
Mine have remained untouched, save for retrieving the bag of random useful items and my primary calculator.

 
Though, I have a master's degree in dirt, so that shouldn't be too surprising.

Mine made it in the house over the weekend, because I went and bought myself a new knitting chair. Needed the space in the car to get the chair home.

I'm considering taking up knitting or crocheting. but I've done both before and it didnt stick. Plus I have enough hobbies. 

 
The electrical exams go to CBT in 2021... But hey, if that helps you burn off stress, then by all means.  :D
That Graffeo guy sure did make some money off his book. I just randomly searched his last name in the Florida records, and turns out he lives in Florida! Just an interesting fact I think is cool since I'm from FL. I wish I would've know this sooner, because he's right down the road from the testing center. I could've drove by and thanked him for the reference.

I'm a rather prolific knitter, and I crochet. Plus spin, cross stitch, and embroider. It's a nice stress relief, I'm blowing through Giftmas presents like the wind right now.

Zach Stone is in FL too (Electrical PE Review guy)

I've got a pile of old ceramics to paint. I can't wait to be able to see the desk so I can paint again.

We're also replacing the desk too - so I need to prime & paint the new desk legs. Need to get the top & seal that. Then we can assemble it! So excited

So Graffeo's book was published in 2012, and he got his license in 2011. So essentially, that whole book was what he typed up for his exam. Then after the exam he either thought of it himself or someone convinced him to start selling his personal notes as a spiral bound book.

 
I did think it was a little odd a book was typed using Calibri font, but now it all makes sense.

Is it even still applicable? The exam specifications drastically changed for the April 2018 (&on) exam.

A lot of my references are from 2011/2012 since I got them through coworkers and some were garbage.

I'm unfamiliar with Graffeo, inasmuch as I wouldn't touch the power exam with a 13-foot pole, but I believe it. There's good money to be made in exam prep, particularly if you're well-organized, detailed oriented, and (if I'm going to be perfectly honest) a native English speaker. However, with CBT on the horizon, now's not the time to break in with prep materials for the P&P exam.

Expect for practice exams I think. Idk.

Somewhat. The practice exam is decent, and his symmetrical components section is good. The illumination section is very good, even though illumination wasn't on my exam.
