Thy faithfulness is unto all generations... - revised

...thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.

Decimal: ninety

Duotrigesimal: twentuh-tih

Once again, we have to adapt in order to avoid giving any inappropriate gestures.

Left hand: two fingers up

Right hand: Little, ring, and index fingers down.

This leaves the thumb and middle finger. The thumb being up is not a problem, but the middle finger being up has come to mean something very inappropriate. Therefore, whereas the little, ring, and index fingers are "curled up" against the palm of my hand, the middle finger is brought DOWN to REST OVERTOP of my thumb muscle. That way, it is neither curled in with my other three fingers, nor sticking up, and giving an inappropriate gesture.

The math? Decimal: 64(left hand with two fingers up, worth 32 each)+16(little finger in)+8(ring finger)+2(index finger)=80+10=90= 2t dtg.

Sincerely,

Daniel

Quicken me after thy lovingkindness... - Revised

...so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.


2r dtg "twentuh-rah".


64+24=88 decimal ("eighty-eight")


Left hand: two fingers up (any two would do, but I like my index and middle). They give me two times thirty-two - hence the decimal sixty four above.


Right hand: two fingers down - but any two would NOT do. Little and ring fingers give me decimal sixteen and eight, respectively. Hence the decimal twenty four above.


Love,


Daniel

P.S. Another "sorry". :)
