numbers, numbers and more numbers

my comment on this post


numbers, numbers and more numbers

last i checked we are six billion plus and i have less than 23 girl-women friends...that is a blooming pity sir...i tell you...

no, no, M is very liberal and trusting kinda woman...and other than first screening rights she makes no other demands (more on this another time)

numbers--how deceiving they can be...who knows how many people an average person can get to meet in a lifetime...let me take a jab

people we smile and exchange hellos...hmmmmm...there is mrs. schmidtz next door...yes, yes the one who leaves blinds open while changing...one...then there are the odd drivers or two...nameless, almost body-less at the stop signal...say two per trip...that would make it 4 per day...so now the total is 5...at the office...well say ten?....total is now 15...aur kya?...do cyber friends acquaintances count?...another ten...total is 25

ok now let's play statistics...

70 years (i know some may want me to bite the dust sooner – but we are playing statistics here, remember?)...so 70 x 365 x 25 = 638,750 (ok, ok be quite! i know there are leap years!)

638,750 souls that i mayhave encountered in some fashion or another

now reality check...

P was divorced, F - divorced...aur kaun?...ah S is remarried--so by deduction she must be divorced...that is three...and then there have been a few folks i know that should have divorced their lousy spouses...but that is my conjecture...ok let's throw them in also...say another ten?...the total is now 13...and if i include hear-says...another 10...so 23 divorce cases...incidentally not one of them volunteered to the burning part...the most heat generated was about 2200 degrees (centigrade or fahrenheit does not matter) in debates and accusations hurled each other's way...
what did george bernard shaw said about statistics?

khair, so we have some numbers 23 and 638,750

does it come to .0036007 % or my goodness! .00036007...now this is a some statistics i just pulled out

so where did i hear greenspan has retired and someone is temporarily warming his seat?

and who stole my hat?
