Shireroth

I'm reaallly sick right now and just started a new semester. So I'm gonna be less then active for a week. My Steward has permission to conduct affairs in my absence.

That is all.

I hope your health improves quickly, Your Niftiness. Please return to us as soon as you are well.

No mere mortal illness can keep his niftyness down for long!

I wish you a speedy recovery, Your Niftiness.

Get better soon!

Considering what I got put my co-worker in the hospital with a 103 fever... and had me to the point of having trouble walking yesterday.. we shall see..

103 degrees = dead

We wish you a speedy recovery.


(LOOT! PILLAGE!)

No, not really!?

103 degrees = dead

No, not really. I've made it through 104.5 myself a few times, (which may explain alot.)

(Of course that's Fahrenheit.)

Stone Jacobar, I ran into the other day, had 105 for 2 hours due to the same virus...

Just don't try to overdo while so ill. It would sap your strength and make your recovery longer.

yeah, since I was having trouble walking monday, I didn't go to work on tuesday.

Sounds like a smart move. Get well soon. You are in my prayers.

We don't use Fahrenheit

In Celsius, 103 = boiled.

Jonas--

In Fahrenheit, 98.6 is normal body temperature. It is equal to 37 Celcius. 107F is usually as high as a fever can go before brain damage and death can occur. In Celcius, 100 is the boiling temperature of water. In Fahrenheit, it is a mild fever. The United States still uses Fahrenheit for taking temperatures in most cases.

Thanks for the information, now I'm a little bit smarter

In Shireroth we use Metric officially.. isn't that cool?

I wish I could say the same for Toketi, but no one else wants to use it...typical american...

Apparently our Kaiser decided to move us into the future when he set up our country to run on metric units. Hooray for undecipherable units of measure. (Most of us Americans use metric units only when forced to do so.)

I use metric consistently because I have trouble visualizing imperial units over distances longer than a foot...then it confuses everyone because they don't know metric...

Those of us who learned metric units only when we arrived in high school or college science or math classes still find it difficult to shift over to metric. It just doesn't seem natural. But, using the English measures of length, weight and time such as span, stone and fortnight, isn't natural either. It's all a matter of what you are accustomed to.

Bring back Sterling units!

Damn. No "pound" Key........

Not here in America. We also don't have a key for the euro, the yen, the erb. We have to make do with the dollar sign. Oh, well.

I have the dollar and pound, but no euro

EURrb!

I think it actually went through the Landsraad not decree, long ago.

Your Niftiness--

Where did you get the key for the erb?

EUR Alt-0128 Hold alt then use your num pad (numlock on) and hit 0128 while still holding Alt. æ is Alt-0230 thus we can get Prætor.

And here's an oldy but a.. err... oldy.. µ Alt-0181

Thank you. I can't wait to actually use these in future posts.
