for cr7, you just stick a new letter in fourth position in your cr6

Hurshy, the walking dictionary

11:26 am
hurshy

she says, as if there aren't any other online tools to use...
11:26 am
hurshy

yes, i am correct
11:26 am
MollyL

It's one hundredth of an are, whatever an are is
11:27 am
hurshy

well it says the ce7 is one square meter, and an are is 100 square meters
11:28 am
hurshy

and the hec**** is 100 of those, so 10,000 square meters!
11:29 am

and a conversion search tells me that a hec**** is about 2.5 acres, then

the o has a real word and then one not in my vocab but we've had before

He was a Jaguar tho I thought
1:49 pm
hokie carla

I played a tennis league with his (ex?) wife, who I think was a panthers cheerleader at one point. she is super nice.
1:49 pm
moolingwa

Had him on my fantasy team in the late 90s or early 2000s don't know for sure
1:49 pm
hokie carla

pretty sure he started here, maybe ended his career at Jax
1:50 pm
hokie carla

I think he played college at UNC, maybe NC State
1:50 pm
moolingwa

could well have, stopped following football many years ago
1:50 pm
hokie carla

I did fantasy football and baseball when I had a job pre-kids.
1:51 pm
hokie carla

looks like his name actually has a vowel on the end (still in the grid though)
1:53 pm
hokie carla

appears he played for the Chargers, the Jags, and then only one season at Carolina. but he grew up here in my county, so I guess that's why he settled here.
1:53 pm
moolingwa

yeah, makes sense
1:54 pm

3:02 pm

my youngest (who is 18 today) is a bit of a math genius so we made him do all the conversions when we went to Canada last year.
3:03 pm
moolingwa

9/5 + 32 from C to F, or -32 5/9 going the other way
3:03 pm

maybe F would make more sense to me if you learned it first, moo

3:05 pm

Well I think you could objectively argue that C being based on freezing and thawing of water, using 100 degrees of separation, makes more sense than Fahrenheit's (with a mild fever) of using human body temperate as the 100 point
3:05 pm
crosshair

I am the last of a dying breed with it comes to the metric system and the old imperial measurement system. here we changed over in 1978, I believe, and now, some 42 years later only the metric system that our young people know and practice. I am percetly comfortasbl;e bouncing back and forth between the two systems, but even at this later stage of my life fish will always be measured in pounds and inches, and beer will forevermore be in pints!

BTW, when we were in Canada, the youngest was sick so the oldest & I bought a thermometer while we were out and then when I took his temp, it came up in C so then he had to convert it to F for me, while he had fever and chills.

it's really weird driving a car in Canada because you look down and the speedometer makes you panic until you realize it's km per hour
3:12 pm

lol. I think cars for the U.S market have the MPH on the outrside of the display and the Kph on the inside, and with the cars for the Canadian market it is reversed. Digital displays can be adjusted to display either one.

wait till you get behind the wheel of a Model A or similar vehicle. Many of them are gravity feed with the fuel tank, and you have to turn a inline valve, then retard the spark, set the throttle and choke, as well as a whole host of ther things we do not even think of anymore when starting a vehicle.
