Al Swearengen: Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or fucking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Dan Dority: You know you hurt my feelings. Al Swearengen: Dan. Dan Dority: That's the long and short of it, Al. You fucking pick Adams to represent you, you hurt my feelings and that is the fucking matter's end.

Seth Bullock: I'll be the fucking sheriff. Al Swearengen: Starting when? Seth Bullock: Starting now. Al Swearengen: You have the tin? Seth Bullock: I do. Al Swearengen: Produce it. [Seth stands up, and pulls out the badge] Al Swearengen: On the tit. Seth Bullock: I know where it goes.

Yeah, the list of fonts with support is <a href="http:\/\/www.fileformat.info\/info\/unicode\/char\/26e4\/fontsupport.htm" target="_blank">rather short</a>, but then, Unicode 6 is less than a year old, and had a lot of new characters for font authors to add.

SW Ontario has always had some humid spells, but the last few summers have been scorchers. God bless AC, because I was not meant to live in a hot humid climate, 70, a light breeze, and I'm happy.
