tonight i will mostly be telling american girls about the birthday paradox.

may i take a moment to thank the birthday paradox for making me a more interesting person. and to thanks those who gave her to me.

Isn't the beer meant to be crap though?

23 >>>>>> any other number.

ok squidler, very quickly, how many people do you need for there to be 50/50 chance of two people having the same birthday?

i have to be in greenwich by 9 so lets do this quick, and you're not even an american. OR A GIRL!!!!

This is true, but you love me. And don't deny it, because you do. Loads. You slapper.

Anyway, yeah it's 23. I've just wiki'd it, and it is rather cool. I am liking this and Zeno's paradox at the moment. FNGC has improved my life.

So anyway LBM, it's unusual to see round these parts at this time. What brings you here? How art thou?


Well I've only recently got the net at home so that's partly why. Have gotta pay for loads of stuff this month so am having to stay in to save a few quid. Am so so, found out today I didn't get a job I had an interview for this week so bit miffed.

You got over the excitement of the Corteeners gig yet?


Of course i haven't! It's probably my favourite gig ever, just because it's the smallest i've been to and i heart them so much. Plus, it's mixed with the excitement of seeing them at Academy on Saturday I could explode.

Bad luck on the job as well. You was robbed

Can't really see the appeal myself. Will give the album a listen though. Which Academy is it? Main one?

Did you buy any of the tickets that I sent you the other day?

3 people in my family share the same birthday! Quite a boring fact I know, just thought I'd share.

what happens 9 months before?

i was conceived on 4th july in san fran. true story, in the toilet of some artist at a party. i dont know why, but im a bit proud of being a drunken spur of the moment thing that ruined my parents american dream and made them move back to ireland.

It is if you like your lagers.  Whether or not the microbrew beers are crap depends on your taste in beer, but it's certainly different.  Fortunately I quickly located the British pub in Seattle that sold the kind of beer we're used to.

Yeah. 'tis main academy.

And i didn't purchase any, but thanks for forwarding them on. We've already discussed Ting Ting's. And i've never listened to Tokyo Police Club, although i did hear their new song the other day, and it wasn't bad. But i'm also trying to save this month, and it looks like Oasis will announce a tour soon, so i'm holding back on buying tickets for anything at the moment. Plus i still owe my mate money for Foals tickets.

I share my birthday with my niece, though she was delivered by Caesarian due to being ridiculously overdue, so it's not all that much of a random coincidence.  Means there's no excuse for forgetting it though.  Which reminds me...
