The "50% Divorce Rate" stat is supposably a bad stat. According to my sociology prof many moons ago some news magazine divided the number of marriages in a year by tbe number of divorces in a year -- a method which did not take into account the existing marriages.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Excellent! Yay links!
Alas, my "Edu" bookmarks folder is getting a little out of hand. Time to subdivide, I suppose. Much like my "Fanfic" folder.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Fucking Windows ME SUCKS ASS.
Agreed. At work we consider Windows ME a virus, rather than an OS. Probably the fastest way to get an IT guy to cringe is to tell him you're running ME.

Of all the suck-ass versions of Windows, this is the suckiest. And I didn't know it until well after we got the computer. Now we're stuck with it probably another year or two.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
