[sam-tip]

Almost 2-3 inches of snow here. Truck was showing 7 deg this morning while making Firewood Helper delivery.

 

[workshop]

Good morning, everyone.

 

[Hedgerow]

Matt I have 17* . How are your beans doing?

Ran from 8:00 to 10:00 this morning...
When the snow started piling up, I had to quit... Visibility was only a couple hundred yards when I pulled out of the field..

 

[cobey]

I learned this trick from Ropensaddle: hold the alt button and type 248. Release the alt-button and you will get this: ° as in 17°.

There are many more such characters. I even built a whole spreadsheet for the special characters to type; I just can't remember them all. Alt-1 through -15 are pretty interesting, the many different characters go up into the 600's. It's kinda fun just to hold the alt button and type a few numbers, just to see what you get.

You can even cuss somebody out on a forum, slipping right past any filter by spelling with the special characters. I haven't yet, but I like to keep my options open. I'm sure that is the sort of thing that would get ¥öù ßäññëd if done contemptuously in violation of the rules.

Just my two ¢ worth‼ ☺

Speaking of Ropensaddle, has anyone heard from him? Not seen at AS for a LONG time. Almost a year. He was never a big part of this GTG thread, but he was the one that introduced me to it.

Not like you guys to lose track of somebody.

HI pdqdl

 

[pdqdl]

Howdy. Been here all along, just don't have too much to say, most of the time.

I only follow two threads these days. WTF and this one, with occasional appearances elsewhere.

 

[Hedgerow]

Just dropped off a load of uglies at the neighbors boiler...
This weather sucks....
Beans got almost 4" of snow on em..
But there's 8 sticks of summer sausage in the smoker, so guess I get to babysit that for another 6 hours...

[Hedgerow]
