Morbid times ahead...

at least till the weekend..as i sit and calculate death rates, infant mortality rates..and suicide mortality rates...and compare suicide rates against death rates...

just a random thought..doesen't reflect my state of mind or anything...

so we all end up as a statistic...someone many years from now will probably calculate death rates..hopefully to serve a larger purpose..and i will account for one tiny decimal point in those reams of pages filled with statistics on death...
-------------------------------------------------------------
went to the Directorate of Statistics and Economics today..taught the staff to burn cd's...:)entirely for a selfish purpose..so that the next time i go..i don't have to stoop over scores of books and painstakingly select the required pages and get them cyclostyled.

met the Director...and funnily enough of all the things i saw a shield announcing victory in a Wrestling Championship placed on his desk...statistics and wrestling...make for strange combo..doesen't it?

  1. Once I went on a date with a statistician.

    As all statisticans, he stuck to his trade.

    Took an Indian girl to an Indian restaraunt.

    :p

    Have sworn off the breed now, even though that particular one had the extra quality of being a soccer player.
