Why does the first c in Dave's "inaccurate" look funny? The little tail at the bottom is odd. I thought I had a speck on my monitor at first, which makes me think maybe Dave's messing with me.
Fired up the patio heater tonight to have a cigar before bed and then remembered to put on the heat deflector for the patio heater which makes it much more efficient for warming just one person sitting in the back yard.

Thanks for the reminder John, I had a battery tender on the motorcycle that got knocked out by a nearby lightning strike last monsoon season. Have a hunch it was the led's that indicate this tender is working that got killed as I lost a couple other banks of led's but for the price of a tender vs a battery I just got another one ordered.
My wife is hosting a get-together at our house tomorrow evening, called a Silent Reading night. People get together, each bringing their own book, and they read silently for an hour or so, then converse afterwards, and have some snacks and wine. I was a bit skeptical, but 8 of 10 people invited are coming, and they are THRILLED! My wife feels like a superstar. Most are bringing a small dish of food to share. I told her to tell them to bring enough so I can make a good supper out of it, and I'll be on the porch at 6pm, silently smoking a cigar. Should be fun. I may even read a book too.

Or a half dollar either.
Those machines are notoriously inaçcurate.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

It's a cedilla, a small hook under the c that indicates vowel nasalization when pronouncing the letter.

Thanks. That tells me the 'what', now I need the 'why'.
Maybe he's pronouncing it in-ack-urate with a nasal florish on the ack.
I'm thinking now he just long-pressed the c on his phone. Just happened to me when I tried to search for "licoriçe sugar."
This can’t be good…

Now I think I'll make it my trademark.
Thanks for telling me how.

Co-worker asked me to look at his electric cars charging cord. Told him he needed a new one.

It'll be fine once the swelling goes down.
Water?
A little isopropyl and reflow the solder. Good as new.

Toured a piece of the Tucson Gem and Mineral show this morning. Looked at a lot of rocks but didn't find a damn thing I had to have.
I've gone to local shows here but have been disappointed to find that they are mostly finished jewelry and not so much focused on gems and minerals.

Great idea for a get together, including the cigar on the porch.
Yes, and I'll be all by myself.
I pray that you switch her book to this one....
