Drink Coke - Play Again!
Today, I will address an issue which has plauged hardcore coke guzzling caffeine whores for some time now… Ever notice how the caps haven’t said “DRINK COKE PLAY AGAIN” for a while? Yeah, they give you some code to type in at the website or something. What’s that all about? ( don’t answer. ) Its because they want to be rather equivocal with you. They couldn’t just come right out and say “You Lose”. Hey, if it doesn’t tell you that you have lost, you must not have, right? wrong… How many people actually bothered to type the codes in? probably a very small percentage. ( probably why they had no problem doing that, eh? ) Well, as of recent, coke caps accross america once again read the all too familiar phrase “Drink Coke Play Again” Isn’t it great?
Now, lets talk theoretical probability, which is apparently all to theoretical. 1 in 12 wins, right? Logically, that means that 1/12 of the bottles of coke that leave the factory are winners right? Of course, the distribution is random. True randomness has clumps. But how clumpy is it? Well, I buy a 20 oz every school day. I have won 5 free cokes this year. ( school year… ) 4 of them were one over a three week period. 1 each tuesday for three consecutive weeks and one on the second friday. Perhaps I hit a clump. Well, what I am getting to is: No matter how they are distributed, the same number of winning cokes are produced. Sooo… Why not just distribute them evenly? ( if not only to make me happy. ) I get really depressed when I don’t win which should be 11/12 of all school days. Saddly, it is a much higher number
Enough Ranting about that. Did I mention that I have been sick for the last pi days? Of course I didn’t, but that leads me to coke. I really could go for a coke right now.
Oh, and before my mind floats away to some happy place and gxine crashes again… I finally got around to sharpening knives and polishing boots yesterday… ( yes, the two go together. ) for anyone that cares, I use a Gatco kit with 5 hones, angle guide and honing oil. And that soup I put on the stove 38 minutes ago and forgot about is all dry and sticking to the pan now…
