Statistics

Never Trust Statisticians... They say that lightning never hits the same spot twice Ha! I’d laugh at that if I could. I lived my life, an exception to the rule Never falling into stereotypes. Yet I lived happy with my exceptionality. Now I cry “Alas that I had to be so different!” As I made my way home through a crashing thunderstorm, Lightning hit the ground in front of me And threw me off my feet. “Whew!” I thought in vast relief, and rolled back on my knees. Happy-go-lucky then, I began a whistling tune. Feeling safe and secure in statistics, I went on my merry way. Alas, alack! I took one step and ZAP! The lightning bolt hit twice.
