Happy Bday, K!

Thanks for the present!

Happy Birfday K!!!

Hubby and kids didn't remember??? Well, that's the norm at my house. Hubby always asks me when his mother's birfday is . . . Let us know if they were faking not remembering . . . always good to have the over-the-top guilt-trip present in mind so that they can make it up to you just in case they really did forget.

BE's dad had a stroke yesterday and they're keeping him at the hospital for 2 days. The boys take turns staying with mom at the hospital and tonight is Blue Eyes' night.

I'm thinking of dropping my stat class because I don't think I'm learning it well enough. Making an appointment with the prof to discuss it with him.

Oh no--I will keep his dad in my thoughts.

Good luck with your meeting with the professor

I was just talking to Jack about the world of statistics, and I read this.. . . . ....I then mentioned that you may be dropping your class, and he said, "Oh, man, stats would be so EASY! It's stuff like, "there have been 12, 084, 695 global hectares of desertification this year..... .. 1, 936,00,704 google searches have been performed so far today. . . ....... 10 % of all human beings ever born are alive at this very moment".. . . .. .ya know, stuff like that. EASY!"

The lock box :D

Keirregne's boifday - many happies!

BE's dad - hope he recovers and gets outta there

I am so TOTALLY not with LGG.

Statistics - think you have to be bad at addition to be able to do that. Clay taught a stat class once - has me do the adding no matter what it is; my erstwhile bridge partner (a naval architect by training) who KNOWS what cards everyone is holding, can't add up our score Me, I took math all the way through HS and flunked it every year, including on school certificate. Fortunately they averaged your subjects for school cert. cos I flunked chemistry too, of course.

Hope his dad is better soon.

I like made up stats better than real ones. Take a creative writing class.

Does sound like more fun.

M, could you have Jack whip this out for me:

A random variable has pdf f(x) = 1/(b-a) when a<x<b, and 0 otherwise.

a ) derive the mgf Mx(t)

b ) hence, or otherwise, find E[X^k] where k is a positive integer.

I need it by Wednesday morning.

GRRRR... I just lost my reply!!!!!!!!

I can't imagine taking Statistics. Good luck with the professor, Jetsgar. I taught G&T one year. I was great at teaching Architecture, Medieval Times, Journalism, and How to Write a Research Paper but teaching these kids math was HARD. They thought nothing of correcting the teacher to begin with. I developed a system of having a backup "teacher of the day" if I needed it and they rose to the occasion. I also learned a lot (I'm a firm believer that you can learn from kids). I think I've always been mathematically challenged and I almost didn't take the job when I found out I was teaching G&T Math.

Healing prayers to BE's Dad.

Big Birthday Hugs to the lady who brought me here and feeds and walks me. I'm sure your hubby has something up his sleeve (or else!!!).

You need a better story than "fell out of bed". How about:

Fought off a home intruder

your parachute failed when skydiving

Played for the (insert favorite pro football team, soccer, hockey, basketball)

Gawd Loughie--are you alright?

I had just discovered that the reason I tend to fall a lot is probably Ataxia (not klutziness, which I always assumed it was). The very same night I found out about it I rolled out of bed and the sound was so loud it woke Superman right up. He got me ice and that helped with the swelling. I do still feel like a truck hit me. Superman/Clark is the sweetest guy and I don't want to leave the house looking like this. Luckily my gluten-free makeup covers it because we had plans to see our son for dinner at college yesterday. He's an oblivious 18 year old and the lights were dim. I told him about it and at first he said "so dad thought you fell out of bed" and we both said, "no I did fall out of bed." I got an extra hug from him.

I'll get a blood work up to see what vitamin deficiencies I might have as soon as my GI refers me to a GP. Thankfully the GI is finally taking me seriously since the capsule endoscopy showed an ulcer. I actually get my calls returned immediately. It's amazing how many pieces to the puzzle there are. This forum has taught me so much and of course the best part is the psilliness!!!!!!!!!

OK, birthday girl - I fought a Ninja and he/she looks worse than I do!!!!! Or perhaps Superman was exposed to Kryptonite while taking me for a ride and dropped me by mistake?
