Wet Barney
So now he's shiny and clean and smells like shampoo (for now....) |

 At least you got a clean puppy out of it! |
| He was so pathetic-looking!
He just stood there, looking at my husband like, Why are you doing this to me? I'm sure it felt good, though, since this weekend was 98 degrees with heat index of 110. When is fall coming? |
| obviously.....not soon enough....sigh |
| He'll probably think the way to get cooled off is to pee on that spot now...lol.... |

It's feeling like fall here! Only ten gedrees out there right now, leaves are changing all falling.... and by Wednedsay the sunset time is 8 pm  |

How can it only be ten degrees out? Are you in Antarctica?! I love changing and falling leaves. Fall is my favorite season... At least today is going to be in the 80s here. Phew. When you don't have air conditioning in your car, you live for the days when humidity and heat go down! |
Lol. She's in Canada. They use that crazy Celsius stuff.  |
Ahhh....Celsius. I remember there was about 1 week during 9th grade that I remembered the conversion from Farenheit to Celsius. Long gone...  |
| New Math:
Quote: Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32); Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
For example, suppose you have a Fahrenheit temperature of 98.6 degrees and you wanted to convert it into degrees on the Celsius scale. Using the above formula, you would first subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and get 66.6 as a result. Then you multiply 66.6 by five-ninths and get the converted value of 37 degrees Celsius. Below is the formula to convert a Celsius scale temperature into degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Tf = (9/5)*Tc+32; Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit Assume that you have a Celsius scale temperature of 100 degrees and you wish to convert it into degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Using the stated formula, you first multiply the Celsius scale temperature reading by nine-fifths and get a result of 180. Then add 32 to 180 and get the final converted result of 212 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Below is another accepted conversion method that works just as well and perhaps might be easier to remember. No matter which direction you want to covert, Fahrenheit to Celsius or Celsius to Fahrenheit, always first add 40 to the number. Next, multiply by 5/9 or 9/5 just like the first method. Then, always subtract out the 40 you just added to yield the final result. To remember whether to use 5/9 or 9/5 when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius or Celsius to Fahrenheit, just simply remember, F (for Fahrenheit) begins with the same letter as Fraction. 5/9 is always a Fraction; while 9/5 is also a fraction, in this form, it is Clearly a whole number plus a fraction (1 and 4/5). Thus, if you want to convert Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C), then use the Fraction 5/9; Celsius (C) to Fahrenheit (F), use the other, 9/5, which is Clearly not just a fraction. Source:http://www.csgnetwork.com/tempconvjava.html Ron's math: From Celsius to Fahrenheit: multiply by 1.8 and add 32 From Farenheight to Celsius: subtract 32 and divide by 1.8 10's are really easy, right? ( 10 * 1.8 = 18 ), so 10 degrees Celsius = 10 * 1.8 = 18 + 32 = 50 degrees Fahrenheit. But what about more difficult ones, like say, 14? Ron's mental shortcut: Well, 1.8 is 10% less than 2... so to multiply by 1.8, multiply by 2 and subtract 10%: 14C = 14 * 2 = 28 - 3(about 10%) = 25 + 32 = 57F 27? 27C = 27 * 2 = 54 - 5 = 49 + 32 = 81F How about the other way around? 90F = 90 - 32 = 58 / 1.8 = 32C "Hey wait a second, Ron. I can't divide by 1.8 in my head!" Neither can I. So divide by 2 and add 10% for a real close approximation: 90F = 90 - 32 = 58 / 2 = 29 + 3 = 32C I'm a geek. |
| Yeah I agree with you Barney1. I LIVE here(Canada) and still after being here for over 25 years(moved to NY when I was 4 from Montreal, then moved back to Canada when I was 18) I still have to 'convert' to farenheit in order for it to MEAN something to me. The kids here are brainwashed (LOL) they dont know what an INCH is...they are used to centimeters and millimeters...sometimes I feel like I am speaking another language LOL
Now 98F is something I can relate to....simply HOT! Glad Barney got cooled off but sorry to hear he didnt take the hint to move away from the wrong spot!
Ok Kim's math....press the button in the truck that tells me what the temp is in farenheit HAHA! or take the celcius temp, double it and add 32....hey gets me close enough LOL  |
For that kind of rough calc, just double it and add 30.  |
| Thanks for the math lesson, professor Ron!
(I should have mentioned I had to take algebra more than once in college) so I like the double the temp and add 30 approach! |
