The ñoñometer.

Last winter was very, very, very cold, so in order to dress me properly for the weather, I used to quickly open the window and “feel” with my hand the outside temperature and the wind factor. Based on my “handmometer” I decided if it was enough to wear a sweater, jacket or a coat, scarf and coat, gloves…ok you got the picture.

But now I decided that I don’t wanna freeze my hand anymore and just decided that one thermometer outside the window will be enough…since it is outside, the wind factor will also influence the thermometer (clever, ah!?).

I thought it was a brilliant idea. But when I told my girlfriend, she just laugh of me. I ask why… she told me I was a ñoño (this is pronounced in English as nionio) for doing that… I think the most appropriate translation will be “nerd”.

Anyway I still think it is a good idea… and I baptized the thermometer as “ñoñometer” the scale is given in ñons, symbol “ñ”, which has the same scale (coincidently) like the Celcius… so… it is very useful.

Well, as Porky the pig used to say: that´s all folks!.

mit berlinischen Gruessen,
Mac…ñoñ.
