It's Calvin and in Canada we like to round up. It's been helpful when getting our cattle (kattle) to market.

Sooooo - if I understand this statement - you round up your cattle when you round up your kattle - - - - - - - ??? 😀😀😀

That might explain why a lot of Canadian women I have known would say "that can't be a size 11!!! (shoe for example). In Canada a size 11 is only this big".... 😛

I uploaded a scale for ya Cal - just in case your kids ever go to science class and their teacher ask them who in the blazes is Calvin.😉

Add a few more tricks, and one does millimeter to decimal or reciprocal inch by head.

Yeah - this helps a lot when converting inch RPM's to millimeter RPM's of turntable platter and motors.... I can do that stuff in my head.

Example: If a 12 inch turntable platter iz turning at 33 1/3 rpm how many RPM would a 300mm turntable platter need to turn to be at the same speed? (the correct answer iz in the back of the book).

(Helps if one is a pathetic napkin scribbler, and travelled the road from slide rule to programmable calculator, from punch cards to making a time reservation for the Cray at the calculus center. Way back, I did my stastistics & chance exam with ten fingers, pen and a few sheets of paper, while fellow 1st year students punched function buttons on plastic. Brought them lower grades, not higher)

I hated it when my slide rule would get kinda funky because I used to to pry something like a window open..... and carrying those log book tables sucked - plus they weren't much fun to read. Getting lost in the wrong tables could get pretty interesting tho..... 😱

One fine day, I'll have to drill a countersunk hole in my head.

Please don't say things like that when we know that you are using power tools to drill holes into the wall of your boat to do the speaker install with....
 
Hey Thomas, a funny thing happened on the way to the Stanley Cup...

Interesting how the bulk of the city saw it coming. I didn't see anyone wearing their jerseys to work and barely any on the streets, hardly a car window flag to be seen. No BBQ's, no going to the bar, no get togethers - nothing! Even the media laid low.

You have to think there are some serious changes coming.
 
I think that hiz name iz

What kind of southern gentleman is you is, or is you ain't, I can not help but ponder.
Any selfrespecting Dixy hick pretender should feel obliged to just wipe his hiney K9 style on the floor rug, and blame the dog.

You're starting to sound more and more like one of those with fancy French heritage, a Joe Dirté who sings I wish I was sitting on a Bidét.

Everyone in Smashville is out working on their race carz and bass boats. 🙄

Apparently you haven't been around Southern Women that pack 12 inch cast iron skillets just for sport..... Ya have to respect Southern Women - they don't give you a second option.... 😀😀😀

Now if you want to go next door and take a dump on your neighbors lawn that will be fine with the Mrs. - but hiz Mrs. and all of her toothless in-laws WILL take target practice and your rear-end iz the target...😱
