This is just to say


Every so often there's another article about how women prefer chocolate to sex. There are also articles that say women who eat chocolate are better in bed. A quick search this morning produced the following quote-
A third of women dream about chocolate during the day, compared with only 18 per cent who think about sex, says a new British survey.

There was a study years ago that said British men were dumber after sex. (I wonder if this after-effect applied only to British men?) And another that said 40% of men lie about their sex lives on surveys. Still others claimed that prayer before sex improved performance. About 30% said God never answered their prayers. Women, some studies suggest, rely on chocolate more than men or God.

I love statistics.

I was blown away when I learned that caffeine was being sold as the magic pill sold in the back of magazines.

I love statistics also. These leave me lost for words, though. Curtis

At moments of statistical crisis like this, say it with pictures!

Statistics say pictures are better in bed than women or God!

And statistics don't live in the suburbs!

That's one huge kiss! I love how they just bite it . . .

And yes, statistics are a way to back whatever you want to claim--
just say 53% of the people with blonde hair and freckles agree with you
while 23% who live in the snow belt have no opinion

This may go far in explaining why I quite randomly bought a bag of chocolate truffles yesterday.

The magic of Nin is that when Nin repeats statistics, she at once changes them and keeps them the same.
