Calculator Nerdery

This is the calculator that I used through high school and college*. My grandpa gave me this calculator because it was the one that he used to build bridges. My dad uses this one in road construction.

This calculator died when I accidentally left it in the freezer getting a fudgsicle one day. My dad still teases me about this 12 years later.



*I had a graphing one too but I mostly used this one

You put a calculator in the freezer? You deserve to be teased for a lot longer than 12 years!

I came here to say that.

I found one of those when cleaning last month. I'm fairly sure I got it from my uncle.

I never used it. I didn't get it until 2003 and it was in a box until last month.
