Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for March 28, 2019

He can always work for the government, then.

I know the feeling.

If Nate needs a degree he needs to go to Weather High!

Not all the numerical degrees have nines in them.

Do not feel bad, you’re a whole number.

If he can remain standing outside, during a hurricane, maybe they’ll consider him anyway. :)

You can find plenty of degrees on the internet, Nate.

Just go to a site like http://www.alt-codes.net/…

you’ll see that it’s alt 0176 or alt 248

or use the HTML for it: °

Hey guys… I’m NOT here to cheat on Nate’s college entrance requirements…

Is it wrong to show him an easy way to get a degree?

I wonder to what degree he’ll go to in order to get a job there?

Temperature majors never seem to get better than a C average anyway. In this country, they usually get Fs.

I groaned appreciatively.

Very clever!

If he stands on his head the temperature goes down.

Just have your rich parent, googol, make a “donation” to the college in Valporainsnow, Windiana

Nate Nine; catchy Weather Channel name.

It’s all a matter of degrees. ☺(alt-1, btw)

Can he throw darts?

Nate looks like the 9th degree to me!

º º º º º º º º º = 9º

Why, it’s proven fact that Weather people don’t need to know what they’re doing.

Maybe just a summer job?

On top of all that, they discriminate against him because he is short. They need to be more fahrenheit.

Maybe you could get some summer work, 9. Then you wouldn’t need a degree.
