mean regression
when a sample is tested over and over again,
statistical outliers have a tendency to regress toward the mean

dogma is still funny as ever.

ny friend gave me one of the most thoughtful, excellent solstamas gifts ever, and one i really need: a gift certificate for a massage. i can't wait.

northern lattidudes joke of the day:
this guy goes to see the doctor on december 21st (also known as techstep's birthday and the winter solstice.) the doctor tells the guy she has some good news and some bad news. the guy asks for the bad news first. "well, the bad news is you only have about 30 days left to live." the guy groans and falls to his knees and begs for the good news. the doctor says, "okay. the good news is, the days are getting longer!"
