Misguided Kerbal

6 hours.

Found out about the Draw tab (which somehow managed to elude me in my several years of using it, most likely because I never thought that Word had drawing tools, and also you have to enable it in File>Options>Customize Ribbon) in MS Word, so I did this:

(why always min-utes? )

Maybe because they were the shortest regularly used unit of time from ancient periods all the way to the Renaissance, when scientific and mechanical knowledge increased enough to measure time accurately to the second (the second short measurement of time to be invented, though shorter than the first one). This is in all likelihood completely bogus, but whatever. I'm neither a linguistic historian nor an etymologist, just an ordinary human.

Then why its a "minute" rather than a "prima", i.e. before the "secunda"?

(prima, secunda, tertia...)

because the second wasn't used as a regular measurement when the minute was named, my conjecture said.

he said he is an ordinary person, I have seen the light and realized that he is in fact a Kerman.

'Kerman' is apparently a real human surname. (not my actual surname, obviously)

bald

It's 'bold', not 'bald'. I just have bad handwriting, even more so when in a hurry.
