Well, today we had a batch of errands to run. We needed to mail out the books we sold on Amazon, the payments for the bills, and the two boxes to our mothers (1 box each — parity in gift giving reigns in our house). We did the food shopping. Stopped to check out books […]

Greetings to all you fans of “A Curious Statistical Anomaly”.
