Wednesday, the middle (hump) of the week.

I love that commercial! They don't make good ones anymore!

What exactly is a Happy Hump Day...because i'm getting twisted ideas in my mind, so just want to make sure we're on the same page here

Before the Camel commercial it meant you have reached the hump (top) of the hill of the work week and the
rest was downhill from there.

Unfortunately for many, it also meant that they reached the top of their productivity on Wednesday, and it was downhill from there.

Can anyone here tell me what the name of this type of snap-fit connector is? I have seen these on my laptop motherboards many times, but I can't find them because I don't know what to call them. Any help and I would be grateful. This is for a locomotive wiring mod I'm mulling over.

Howdy all 46 and damp and rainy and...you get the idea. I might change the ideas of industries in the Timesaver section of my layout, I might add ACME Explosives and Wolf Whiz Ale to that section. BNSF, thanks for reminding me about the switch controller's going to black, as all my current switches are blue.

SMA ( both female and male )

I have SMA connectors on my radios. Do these come in micro sizes without threads that I don't know about?
