It's sort of like when you listen to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, and Peter Segal asks, "Is that your final answer?" and you know that he's hinting the caller to change to something else.

Except Monty will offer the switch even if you picked a winner. I ran across another way to think about it, which is actually to ignore the reveal. You pick door A. Pretend Monty says you can stick with A, or you can switch so that you win if the car is behind B or C. In that scenario, it's obvious that your odds are 2 in 3 if you switch, right? That's basically what's happening.

Whoa, the A's beat the Mets. That hasn't happened since 1973.

I had never seen a Chincilla before. Now I kind of want one.

Right now, I'm not sure why I packed gym clothes for my trip to SF. I walked over 7 miles today without even trying.

Damn, shrift! Are there ridiculously long corridors in your company building or something? I mean, heck, I walked through two airports twice (there and back), and walked to get some ice cream and still only got about 4 miles. Yeesh.

I'm at a conference, so there were the airports, walking to transportation, walking around downtown while waiting for my hotel room to be ready, foraging for food, walking back and forth from the conference center many, many times, walking to events, walking to other hotels where coworkers are staying, and general noodling around.

Oh, and there is some kind of Homeland Security Mobile Command business outside the Union Square Hilton that gave me pause this afternoon.
